Mobile App Publishing

What we handle

Store submission end to end

Publishing a financial app is harder than publishing a game. Apple's review team scrutinises trading apps carefully. We know what trips the review and how to respond.

One codebase, both ecosystems

Apple and Google have different rules. We handle both and keep you compliant on each.

Apple App Store track

Submission through App Store Connect under your Apple Developer account. TestFlight beta channel for internal and external testers. Phased release once production is live. Review response handling by us.

Google Play track

Submission through Play Console under your account. Internal, closed, and open testing tracks. Staged rollout at 1%, 5%, 20%, 50%, 100%. Signing with your keystore. Pre-launch report review.

Developer Accounts

Your accounts, your signing keys, your name on the listing

You open the Apple Developer and Google Play Console accounts in your name. We help with the paperwork but the accounts have to be yours, since the publisher name on both stores must match the legal entity running the brokerage.

  • Apple Developer Program under your legal entity
  • Google Play Console under your legal entity
  • Signing keys stored by you, with secure copies for our build pipeline
  • Developer teams configured so we can submit without seeing payout settings

Review Responses

We handle what Apple and Google reject for

Financial apps hit specific review rules: compliance disclosures, risk warnings, misleading claims, and account-creation friction. We know the common rejection reasons and the response patterns that get the next build approved.

  • 4.3 Design (spam) and 5.0 Legal (financial services) rejections handled
  • Pre-submission compliance review on our side
  • Written review responses in Apple and Google review consoles

Most rejections are about where disclosures live, not what you offer. We pre-emptively place them where reviewers expect.

Release Pipeline

Phased rollout, hotfix lane, kill switch

Production releases roll out to 1% of users first, then 5%, 20%, 50%, 100% over days. If crash metrics spike at any stage, the rollout halts automatically. Hotfix builds skip the queue to Apple expedited review and Google priority track.

  • Automatic phased rollout gated on crash-free rate
  • Hotfix pipeline for critical bugs, through expedited review channels
  • Remote feature flag kill switch for critical UI issues
Rollout stages · Standard 25k

Compliance Posture

Risk disclosures where reviewers look

Risk disclosure, KYC flow visibility, no misleading income promises in screenshots, financial-services category selected, local market compliance notes. Our submission pre-check runs every build against the review-rule list.

  • Risk disclosure visible before any trading action
  • KYC flow completable from the review account
  • Screenshots and promotional text pre-reviewed for compliance

Common questions

App Store and Google Play, straight answers

No vague answers about publishing.

Apple review currently runs 24 to 48 hours for standard apps and up to a week for financial apps on first submission. Google Play is typically 2 to 7 days for a new app, same-day for subsequent builds. Add a few days on top for us to prepare the full listing with screenshots and compliance copy.

Common first-time rejections for trading apps are 5.0 Legal (missing financial services disclosure), 4.3 Design (looks too similar to a template), and 5.1.1 Data Collection. We handle the response in Review Center and resubmit, usually with a one or two day turnaround to re-approval.

Yes. The Apple Developer Program and Google Play Console accounts have to be under your legal entity, since the publisher name on the store listing must match the entity running the trading platform. We help with the paperwork during onboarding.

We prepare localized store listings for the markets your trading app targets. Screenshots can carry localized text, description and keywords get translated, and the content rating stays consistent across stores. Add markets later without re-submitting the build.

You do, through App Store Connect and Play Console. We can suggest response templates but the operator relationship is directly with your traders. The admin dashboard surfaces new reviews daily so you do not need to log into the stores to see them.

We handle the native shell maintenance. When Apple or Google deprecate an API, we roll a new native build within the deprecation window and submit it under your account. You do not need to track Apple or Google developer announcements yourself.
