As part of our role as Magic Store Team and Magic Store Community, we review all apps submitted to the Store thoroughly to ensure a safe and trusted experience for all users and offer developers the best chance to succeed. To make the review process go as smoothly as possible, follow the guidelines and resources while preparing to apply for your app to be listed on the Magic Store.
Every project that is listed on the Magic Store has a certain status. Depending on the development phase of the project, it can be Validated or Upcoming. Once the Upcoming projects reach their launch date, they also undergo a Validation process. .
During the Validation Process of 14 days, the Magic Store Community votes for the projects to get listed. The projects get attention from the community through the voting itself and marketing announcements, free of charge.
Validated projects appear on all pages: Discover, Apps, and Games, while upcoming projects only appear in the Upcoming section. This means that Validated projects have the most exposure on the Magic Store.
Validated projects may also be randomly selected for a banner on the Magic Store. These banners are updated every 1-2 months.
As a Validated project, it is possible to create customized Campaigns in our section.
Prepare your submission for review by familiarizing yourself with the submission guidelines and information you will need to include. Ensure your application is eligible for submission before moving forward.

After successfully populating the Listing Form and submitting your app, your app will be in the “pre-approval” status. It takes a few days to proceed to the Validation Process. The Internal Confirmation Process is conducted by the Magic Square team and there are three possible outcomes:
Approval: In case you populated all of the fields accurately and professionally, according to the instructions, your app will pass the Confirmation process and then proceed to the Validation Process.
Rejection: If your app doesn’t align with the Magic Store Validation Guidelines, it will be immediately rejected and you will be informed about it in the associated Telegram group and through the email address provided during the listing process.
Correction: The form that you have populated is reviewed and all fields are carefully checked. If there is any need for corrections or additional information, you will be contacted by the Magic Square team in the associated Telegram group with all provided details.
All apps that pass the Internal Confirmation Process appear in the Validation Section and go through the Validation Process. To vote, users must have completed Magic ID profile. The Validation Process lasts for 2 weeks (14 days). An app must receive 60% positive votes to pass the Validation Process. If the app fails, the app developers can re-apply an unlimited number of times. If the app receives more than 60% positive votes, it will be listed in the Validated Section. The entire Validation Process is publicly visible to all members of the Magic Store.
Your application will appear in the Discover page on the “Recently Validated” block once it has passed the Validation Process. Your app will appear in other relevant blocks on the Discover, Apps and Games pages based on the category and popularity of your app in Store.
