App Approval Process

1. Review Partner Program Requirements

To begin the application process, review the partner program information, qualifications, and requirements.

2. Submit App for Review

Add Directory Listing information

After creating your API Key, you can go to Directory Listing tab in App Management. There, you'll be able to send the details of your app, including an icon and banner image to show in the Eventbrite App Marketplace. In this tab, you will also be able to select your app's category, event category and type of service. You can choose to save your changes as a draft or add additional languages.

Adding Languages

Upon saving your app's basic information, you will be able to add the supported languages and your app's details in those languages. In this section, you will add a URL to "Get Started", a short description, an optional long description and other components like screenshots and support information that will help event organizers understand the value of your app.

App Submission

Once your app is ready to be in the Eventbrite App Marketplace, submit it to review by clicking the "Submit for Review" button. That will change your app's status from Unsaved or Draft to Eventbrite Pending Action.

There are three statuses which your app directory listing can be set to after review: Developer pending action, Approved and Rejected. You will receive an email when there is a status update, and it will contain the information regarding the new status.

App Extension

To show the "Install" button in on your app's product page, you will need to complete the "App Extension" step. In App Management, go to the App Extension tab to find a URL field — this is the app iframe's URL. Add your app's URL and save to submit for review.

There are two statuses which your app extension can be set to after review: Approved and Declined.
