With Business Connect, you can now customize the way your business information appears across Apple apps. Learn how to get started.
Apple recently launched Business Connect to enable businesses to easily claim and optimize their Apple Maps locations. Getting started as a single or multi-location business only takes a few minutes.
Once you have set up and claimed your locations, you will have access to view and edit your Place Cards. This includes:
Updating your location details.
Adding photos.
Publishing showcases.
Reviewing the performance and engagement of your locations on Apple Maps.
Apple Business Connect offers three different workflows:
Small businesses.
Enterprise brands with 25 or more locations.
Third-party partners that manage data on behalf of other businesses and can submit this data via API.
In this article, you’ll learn how to get started with Apple Business Connect.
Next, go to the Apple Business Connect website, choose your business type (small, enterprise, or third-party partner), and sign in with your Apple ID.
If you are a brand leveraging a third party to submit and access data via API, you’ll still need to set up and claim your first location in Business Connect. You will then have the option to delegate your account to an agency that can add the remaining of your locations in bulk.
For single locations and small businesses under 25 locations, your first step will be searching or creating your location.
For enterprise businesses, you should click on the prompt at the bottom that says “Register as an Enterprise.”
