Sole trader and Apple Developer Account

    Currently in the process of having an app developed for my business.

    The company providing the white label app have informed me that I need to create an Apple Developer Account so as they can publish the app, and provide me with previews before doing so, also.
    They have asked that I setup an organisational account.
    This would allow me to send them an invite to the account so as they have access.

    But from looking into it, as a sole trader, it is not possible for me to set up an organisational account. If I set up an individual account I would have to provide the dev team with my apple ID and login, which obviously makes no sense. Is there anyway around this?

    Also does this mean I will not be able to publish the app with my registered business name?

    Hi, they can be a PITA alright.

    IIRC the last and only time did this I needed a DUNS number https://www.dnb.com/ie/duns-number.html

    I wonder if you can get one via your RBN?

    I have a DNUS number, but as this shows Apple that I am a sole trader they request that I sign up for an individual account.
    So frustrating!

    Anyone ever experience this before and if so what is the solution :)
