VTEX App Store is a marketplace for VTEX IO plug-and-play solutions.

To become a VTEX App Store seller, follow these steps:

Instructions

Step 1 - Expressing your interest

To publish your application or integration on the VTEX App Store, complete the Application form.

This form helps our team understand the best approach and prioritize publication requests.

Step 2 - Signing our commercial agreement

If the form is complete and the team agrees that the application is suitable for the VTEX App Store, the next step is to sign a commercial agreement with VTEX.

This contract, provided by the VTEX team, grants VTEX distribution rights over the app. Additionally, it enrolls your account in the VTEX Partner Program if you're not already a member.

The Partner Program provides access to a VTEX account, allowing you to test and develop new apps and receive tech support from the VTEX partner team.
