Developer account under 18 I'm 16 and I've learned to develop iOS apps recently.

I've finished my first app yesterday and I want to upload it to the App Store.

I've tried to register with my name and my father's credit card and I got the verification code from Apple. But when I'm trying to sign in to my account I get this error message:


  We are unable to activate your Apple Developer Program membership.
  We have received your purchase information and will email you shortly to verify additional details.


Additionally, I'm trying to reach Apple Developer Support for over an hour but they don't answer the phone.

Any idea what can I do with that?
You need to wait for the activation email — there's nothing else you can do and trying to contact anyone else until then may cause confusion. You used a different name than the name on the card used to purchase the membership, so you will need to complete another activation step. This seems to be manually initiated and you need to wait for the email, which may take up to two weeks.

You will be given further instructions which may include information on cancelling the membership and being instructed to pay using a card with your own name, which was the final resolution in my case.
