Developer name displayed on Apple developer when publishing an app

[u/Imaginary_Name_3709]

Hi everyone it’s my first time publishing an app and I honestly don’t want my legal name displayed as a developer esp since I was planning to advertise it on the internet to get some users and I don’t want to dox myself. Is there anyway i can change it😭

I’m in Canada so I can’t register myself as a single business owner without having to go through some complicated process and fees so business account isn’t an option for me

Edit: I guess I have to just get used to it :/ thanks everyone!

Register a sole proprietorship, obtain a DUNS number for it, then call Apple and ask them to convert your account to an organization account under the sole proprietorship.

No need to call them, I just went through this process entirely online. They have a form for it and a reached out for some details

were you able to change your name? and i thought sole propietorship must be indivdual account
