FAQ
Got questions? We have answers.
What does $29/mo include?
Everything. LLC or C-Corp formation service, registered agent, digital mail scan, EIN registration, and a filing guarantee. One price — no add-ons, no hidden fees.
Do I need an LLC to publish on the App Store?
You can publish as an individual, but an LLC protects your personal assets and looks more professional to users. Apple and Google both support business entity enrollment. An EIN (included with Lovie) is typically needed for business banking, and Apple also requires a D-U-N-S number for organization enrollment.
How does forming a company through AI work?
Lovie connects to AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor through MCP (Model Context Protocol). You tell your AI to form a company, it uses Lovie to handle the filing. You review and approve everything before submission.
How does billing work?
$29/mo. Cancel anytime — no commitment.
What is the LLC-to-C-Corp conversion?
You launch as an LLC, then convert to a Delaware C-Corp when raising VC. Institutional investors typically require C-Corps. Lovie's conversion support is coming soon — included at no extra fee when it ships.
Can I use this for my app's payment entity?
Yes. Your LLC or C-Corp is a real legal entity. Use it for App Store payments, Stripe, RevenueCat, or any payment processor. Your EIN (included) is required for most payment setups.
Is Lovie a law firm?
No. Lovie is a technology platform that automates company formation filings. We handle filings — not legal counsel. Consult a licensed attorney for personalized legal advice.
LLC or C-Corp for my iOS app?
Most indie developers form a Wyoming or Delaware LLC — it's the cheapest entity with strong liability protection and pass-through taxation, so app revenue lands on your personal return without double tax. If you're raising VC, convert to a Delaware C-Corp before your seed round; Lovie's conversion support is coming soon within your $29/mo plan. The Lovie chat recommends based on your specific situation.
Which state should I form in — Delaware, Wyoming, or my home state?
For app companies: Wyoming is cheapest (lowest annual fees, strong privacy), Delaware is the VC standard (well-tested corporate law and the Court of Chancery). If you're a solo developer staying solo, Wyoming wins on cost. If you plan to raise institutional capital, go Delaware C-Corp from day one. Lovie can file in any of the 50 US states.
Do I need a US LLC if I live outside the US?
If you want to sell on the US App Store or Google Play (US marketplaces), accept payments in USD, or look credible to US-based partners — yes. A US LLC unlocks Apple Developer Program enrollment, Stripe, RevenueCat, and US business banking. Lovie forms entities for international founders without an SSN or US address.
When should I form — before or after my app is profitable?
Form when you start collecting revenue, or when you take on a co-founder, or before you take any external money. The LLC creates a legal separation between your personal assets and the app's liability the moment it's registered. If your app generates even $1 of revenue, you want the entity in place so the income flows through the LLC, not your personal SSN.
Can I publish an app without an LLC?
Yes, you can publish as an individual, but an LLC for app developers provides liability protection and looks more professional to users. A Delaware LLC is a common choice.
How much does an LLC cost for an app developer?
State fees vary, but Lovie charges $29/mo for everything including formation, registered agent, and EIN.
Do I need a separate LLC for each app?
No, you can operate multiple apps under a single LLC, though some developers prefer separate entities for very distinct projects to isolate risk.
Should indie developers form an LLC or S-Corp?
Most start with an LLC for pass-through taxation. You can elect S-Corp status later if your revenue justifies it for self-employment tax savings.
Why do indie iOS developers need an LLC before publishing on the App Store?
Indie iOS developers need an LLC before publishing on the App Store to protect their personal assets from copyright infringement claims, data privacy lawsuits, and user data breaches. If you publish under your own name, you are personally liable for any legal action taken against your app. Lovie helps mobile developers quickly establish their LLC so they can confidently launch their apps under a corporate developer account.
How does an LLC affect my Apple Developer Program enrollment?
Forming an LLC allows you to enroll in the Apple Developer Program as an Organization rather than an Individual, which means your company name will appear as the 'Seller' on the App Store instead of your personal name. To enroll as an organization, Apple requires your LLC to have a D-U-N-S Number, which is a unique nine-digit identifier for businesses. Securing your corporate entity first ensures a smooth transition through Apple's strict verification process.
Do I need a C-Corp if I plan to raise venture capital for my mobile app?
Yes, you need a C-Corp if you plan to raise venture capital for your mobile app, as almost all institutional investors require the Delaware C-Corp structure for its predictable corporate law and ease of issuing preferred stock. While an LLC is great for bootstrapped indie developers, it makes issuing equity to investors and early employees highly complicated. If rapid scaling and fundraising are your goals, starting as a C-Corp is the standard path.
What are the tax implications of in-app purchases for a single-member LLC?
For a single-member LLC, revenue from in-app purchases is treated as pass-through income, meaning the profits are reported directly on your personal tax return without facing corporate double taxation. Apple and Google handle the collection and remittance of sales tax for digital goods in most jurisdictions, simplifying your compliance burden. However, you are still responsible for paying self-employment taxes on the net income your app generates.
Is a registered agent required if I develop apps from my home office?
Yes, a registered agent is legally required in your state of formation even if you develop apps entirely from your home office. The registered agent must have a physical address available during normal business hours to accept service of process and official state correspondence on behalf of your company. Lovie provides reliable registered agent services, allowing you to keep your home address off public records and focus on shipping code.
