  • Click Continue.
Step 3 - Enter your app's details

  • Provide a support email address.
  • Indicate whether the app requires Flash support.
  • Add at least one screenshot or video.
  • Provide additional comments for the app reviewer (such as sign in details if the app requires them) - note you'll only be able to modify these notes by submitting a new version of the app.
  • Select whether the app will be published as soon as approved - note you'll only be able to modify this setting by submitting a new version of the app.

Step 6 - Update availability and payment details
Step 6a - If the app is free (and doesn't include in-app purchases):
On the left hand menu, click Compatibility. Change the countries the app will be available in if you wish.
Step 6b - If the app is paid (or free, but includes in app payments):
On the left hand menu, click Compatibility & Payments
  • Setup your payment provider accounts, such as Bango and Boku.
  • Set the price, identify whether the app includes in-app products and select the countries the app will be available in.
  • If the app is being offered as a premium upgrade to a free app, identify the free app.
Step 6c - If the app includes in-app products:
  • On the left hand menu click In-App Payments and obtain your API key and secret. (Note that you'll have to submit an update to your app once the API key and secret have been added to it, for more details see In-app payments.)
  • If you're using fxPay, on the left hand menu click In-App Products and define each of your in-app products.
Step 7 - Setup team member (optional)
On the left hand menu, click Team Members and add any additional team member if you wish.
Step 8 - View the listing (optional)
