Why do you need to pay $99 to Apple to become an Apple developer
Main drivers Here are my main drivers for paying apple. You only can do these things if you are on a paid tier of Apple Developer track: Publishing Apps Access to Push Notifications Capability Access to NFC Capability Siri Capability Unlike Google, which charges $25 once, Apple charges anually (and $99). However, once I paid and was reading some collateral materials from Apple, literally in few minutes i was enrolled and I received the needed capabilities in XCode (Push Notifications, including Background Remote mode).
