The EU’s Digital Market Act (DMA) regulates criteria for gatekeepers. Gatekeepers are large digital platforms that offer so-called core platform services, such as online search engines, app stores and messenger services. Gatekeepers must adhere to the requirements and prohibitions listed in the DMA. The Apple iOS App Store has been defined as a gatekeeper and Apple has had to comply with the DMA regulations since March 7, 2024 and thus allow alternative app marketplaces for iOS apps, among other things.
mobivention offers such an alternative with the mobivention App marketplace.
The App marketplace offers corporate customers the opportunity to distribute their iOS apps via an alternative app marketplace. The focus here is on apps that are used by employees within the company. At the start, the offer is limited to free apps. It is irrelevant whether they have developed the apps themselves or had them developed by a service provider.
First of all, you need an Apple developer account with Apple. Then upload the apps you want to distribute via App Store Connect and release them for distribution via the mobivention App Marketplace. We retrieve the information provided, offer you the option of providing further metadata about your app in our administration system and you release the app for testing.
The app is subjected to the test criteria specified by Apple and then released for distribution.
Users install the App marketplace via a link and are then able to install their apps on their iPhone.
The App marketplace is constantly being expanded and new requirements are seamlessly integrated into the App marketplace.
For companies that want to distribute their own apps securely and efficiently to employees, we offer a robust and user-friendly platform. Our service enables you to deliver your internal apps seamlessly and directly to your employees’ end devices. This not only promotes productivity and efficiency within your company, but also ensures secure and controlled distribution of your company software.

For this reason, we offer the development of a customized app marketplace that builds on the powerful basis of our app marketplace solution. This service is ideal for companies that want to offer their users a customized app marketplace for app distribution.
For companies interested in even deeper customization, we offer the option of licensing our advanced Marketplace technology. This includes both our backend and the app, which you can use as part of your customer projects. Our technology provides a solid foundation for the development of a completely customized marketplace that meets your specific requirements and those of your customers.
