GoodBarber's Online Help
Android - Verify your organisation's website
If you opened an Organisation developer account on Google Play, you need to verify your organisation's website.
You must provide and verify ownership of your organisation's website to publish apps on Google Play. This helps Google to verify your organisation.
Only the account owner can provide and verify your organisation's website.
Verify your organisation's website created outside GoodBarber
If you have not registered ownership of your organisation's main website in Google Search Console yet, we advise you to use the same email address as your developer account email address.
To verify your organisation's website:
1. Make sure that you've registered ownership of your organisation's main website in Google Search Console. You must do this before attempting to verify.
2. Provide the URL of your organisation's main website on the account details page. You may have already provided this when you created this developer account.
3. Prove that your organisation owns the website by sending a verification request on the account details page.
This will send a request to the registered owner in Search Console:
- Otherwise, the registered owner of the website in Search Console will receive an email and a notification in Search Console to approve or deny your request. If the request is approved, you’ll receive an email and a Play Console Inbox message letting you know that an association between the website and your Play Console developer account has been created, and the website verification process is now complete.
