How do I Add my Business to Apple Maps?

To add your business to Apple Maps, you must use the Apple Business Connect platform, which requires first creating an Apple Business Manager account. The process involves several key steps: 1. **Essential Preparations:** Gather necessary documents, including proof of address (like a utility bill) and your state-issued business license (for US-based verification). You’ll also need a valid business email and an Apple ID or Business Manager Account. 2. **Create Your Apple Business Account:** Visit business.apple.com and select ‘Enroll Your Organization.’ Enter your legal name, address, and D-U-N-S number for verification, provide contact details, and enable two-factor authentication. Submit the account for verification, which may take several days. 3. **Access Apple Business Connect:** Once verified, log into the Apple Business Connect portal using your Apple Business Manager credentials. 4. **Add Your Business Location:** Navigate to the ‘Locations’ section on the Connect dashboard and select ‘Add Location.’ Input required details such as the precise address (including street number, city, state, and ZIP code), select the appropriate category, and input contact information (phone and website). 5. **Complete Details and Attributes:** Enter comprehensive details, including operating hours, website URL, phone number, and relevant attributes (e.g., wheelchair accessibility, outdoor seating). 6. **Upload Photos and Verify:** Upload high-quality photos to enhance the listing. Apple typically verifies the listing via a postcard sent to your address or a phone call, which takes 5-10 business days in the US.
