Question

Meta for Developers bounces from About you"back to Contact Info after Complete Registration

I am unable to complete my Meta for Developers account registration.

I get through Contact Info (email code verification) and About you (selected "Developer," clicked "Complete Registration"), but instead of finishing, the flow sends me back to the Contact Info step and asks for the email code again. Requesting a new code repeatedly returns to the same loop.

I have already tried:

  • Different browsers
  • Incognito/private browsing
  • Clearing cache and cookies
  • Different devices (desktop and mobile browser)
  • Different networks / VPN disabled
  • Waiting 24+ hours between attempts
  • Updating the email and re-verifying

The issue still persists across all of the above.

I need the Meta Developer account to create an app for Marketing API access (Meta Ads integration for a SaaS product I'm building).

Could you please check whether there is an account-side registration block or backend issue and help me complete the developer registration?

I have attached screenshots showing the registration loop across the Contact Info and About you steps.

Thank you.

Hi there, I am experiencing the exact same issue. I have also tried all the troubleshooting steps you mentioned, but the registration loop persists. It seems to be a widespread backend problem right now, as several other users on the forum are reporting this exact same bug. I even tried submitting a bug report form to Meta about this, but I haven't received any updates and I'm still stuck on the same screen. Hopefully, the support team addresses this soon because we are completely blocked from moving forward.

This site is for Meta Quest virtual reality headset software development. Only.

However, afaik, for any Meta developer accounts (including Quest VR) you need to register using your credit card first (for identification), not email code, or the system will reject you.
