LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - Jul 20, 2011) - In support of Apple's "App Store Volume Purchase Program for Business," Dun and Bradstreet Credibility Corp., the leading provider of business credit building and credibility management solutions for businesses, announced today a program enabling business to acquire a DUNS Number on an expedited basis of only five business days. In order to enroll in the App Store Volume Purchase Program for Business, Apple is requiring companies to first have a D&B DUNS Number.(1)
Normally, businesses seeking to acquire a DUNS Number have to wait as long as 30 days before being assigned a number. The program for an expedited DUNS Number will be available for $229 and will include as a bonus the ability for businesses to create a full business profile and to see their business credit scores.
In announcing the program to provide businesses with an expedited DUNS number, Jeff Stibel, Chairman & CEO of Dun and Bradstreet Credibility Corp., said, "The package we have created for the App Store Volume Program will actually enable companies to achieve two goals at once: Companies without a D&B DUNS number will get their DUNS number faster with the added benefit of creating a full credit profile. This is a great benefit for companies since establishing a credit file is the first step in establishing business credit and overall credibility."
The program for an expedited D&B DUNS Number is available at www.DandB.com/dunsforapple
