We Deploy Your App

To publish your custom branded app on the Google Play Store, your business needs its own Google Play Developer Account. This ensures you retain 100% ownership of your app, brand, user data, and store presence under your official business name. Follow this simple step-by-step guide to complete setup and grant access to the AI App Studio team.

• 1A dedicated Google Accountuse a business address such as yourbrand@gmail.com rather than a staff member's personal account.
• 2A valid credit or debit cardGoogle charges a $25 USD one-time registration fee at the end of signup.
• 3A government-issued photo IDa passport or driver's license, clearly photographed and matching your registration details.
• 4Business documentationyour D-U-N-S number and business registration, if you are signing up as an Organization.

Use your official business email, or create a dedicated Google Account for your brand. This account becomes the owner of your developer profile and every app published under it.

• Pick a name your users would recognise, such as your business or product brand.
• Turn on 2-Step Verification on the account before you begin signup.
• Store the recovery email and phone number somewhere your business controls.

Open the Play Console signup page and sign in with the business Google Account you just prepared.

If you are already signed in to a personal Google Account in your browser, open the link in a new profile or an incognito window so you do not register the wrong account by mistake.

Google asks whether you are registering as an organization or as an individual. This choice decides the name shown on your store listing and whether Google requires a testing period before launch, so pick carefully. It cannot be changed easily later.

Google verifies every new developer before the account can publish. Have your documents open on your desk so you can finish this in one sitting.

1. Enter your legal name, business address and contact phone number exactly as they appear on your documents.
2. Upload your government-issued photo ID, or your official business registration documents for an Organization account.
3. Enter the SMS code sent to your phone, then confirm the email verification link.

The final signup screen asks you to accept Google's terms and pay the registration fee.

• Read and accept the Google Play Developer Distribution Agreement.
• Pay the $25 USD one-time fee directly to Google with your card.
• Save the receipt Google emails you, in case you need it for your business records.

If you registered a Personal account, Google requires a closed testing track before your app can go live. Organization accounts can skip this section entirely.

• You need 12 testers who opt in to the closed test.
• Those testers must stay opted in for 14 continuous days.
• Only after that period can you apply for production access.

Staff members, existing customers and friends of the business all make good testers. They simply need a Google Account and an Android device.

This is the step that lets us publish on your behalf. You stay the account owner throughout and can remove our access at any time.
