App Appearance options

As a developer, you can publish applications in two ways, Public and Private Applications, under the hood both types are the same. However, the only difference is the listing status.

1. Public application:

Will be published on the market for all of our merchants, so any merchant can view it and install it.

2. Private application:

Is the kind of application that can be installed on specific store/s only without listing it on the market, and can not be installed unless the merchant is explicitly granted to.

By default, all apps are meant to be public. However, if you want to build a private app for a store, you can contact us when it's ready to publish it on the needed store, from here
