Requirements

  • The Apple Push Notification service (APNs) must be set up prior to enrollment.

    Note:

    Requesting access to Apple Business is a short sign up process, but you should expect a waiting period after signing up. Apple reviews your credentials and application, which typically takes 5 to 10 days.
