App Store Binary Rejected – The seller and company names associated with your app do not reflect the name

I found a comment in Apple Developer forum, and it works for me.

Hi,
I might be able to help on this. I just got my app approved and had
the same reason. You need to make sure, that if your app is called
XYZ and you are the owner 123, that 123 owns all copyright for the app
and it’s content within. If the content is third-party make sure you
comment this in comments box. It’s quite reasonable, as I might upload
an app called Windows for iOS and do not even own the copyright for
this brand. Also, make sure you write the correct name etc. in the
copyright box, who owns the brand. It’s not the app name, but the
publisher or if you develop for someone, it’s his company/client name.
I don’t think it’s that complictaed with Apple, you just need to be
straight forward. I hope this helps someone!

From the comment, I did as below:

  • In “Prepare for submission”, scroll to Copyright area, copy your
    team name and paste it as Copyright of this application.

    • Resubmit your application.

In my case, it took 2 days to get my application approved for sale in Apple store. Have your patience.

UPDATED: Now, apple allows us upload a certificate file to show their authentication of this app then we can use the our owner app name.
