White Label ClientHub Setup – Agency Instructions

Setting Up Your White-Labeled ClientHub Platform

    Goal

    This article guides agencies through the required steps to complete setup of their white-labeled ClientHub platform—ensuring a branded, seamless experience for their policyholders across web and mobile.


    Why This Matters

    Your ClientHub is your digital store—it's how policyholders access documents, request service, make payments, and interact with your agency. Setting it up correctly means clients always connect with your brand (not ours), which builds trust, reduces manual service, and supports long-term retention.

    Your logo, colors, subdomain, and app listings all work together to ensure your agency’s experience is front and center across all devices.

    ⚠️ Please Note: there is going to be back and forth to complete setting up your Apple and Google accounts on your end. If this takes longer than expected your deliver date of your White Label ClientHub could be delayed

     


    Setup Checklist

    Step What You Need to Do
    1. Select ClientHub Color Work with your Customer Success Manager to choose a theme color that matches your brand.
    2. Subdomain Setup GloveBox will provision a subdomain (e.g., clients.agencydomain) to host the web version of ClientHub.
    We'll provide instructions to update DNS records with your domain registrar.
    3. Apple Developer Account Create an Apple Developer Account (if not already done), add engineering@gloveboxapp.com as an Admin, and generate your Apple API Key.
    4. Google Developer Account Create a Google Developer Account, and add engineering@gloveboxapp.com as an Admin.
    5. Google Website Verification Verify your website domain through the Google Search Console proving you own the domain we will host the app on.
    6. Privacy Policy We will use the GloveBox Privacy Policy and link it within your web version. This will be included in the subdomain setup. 
     

    Select ClientHub Color Option

    • Review the ClientHub color options menu and select your color
    • Let your Customer Success Rep know the color fitting your agency branding best

    Subdomain Set Up

    The subdomain will be the custom link for policyholders to log in via the web when not using a downloaded app. This link will be used on your website as well as email signatures for easy access to ClientHub

    Confirm Privacy Policy

    GloveBox defaults to using the same privacy policy for the GloveBox app listing and will automatically add this for your agencies app. Should you have your own Privacy Policy already in place, please let your CS rep know and we can make this update.

    To complete this all GloveBox needs is confirmation of:

    • Your Agency Name
    • Agency Address
    • Primary email for any app users to reach out to. This can be a general inbox email for your agency or the primary point of contact managing your Apple and Google accounts

    1. Verify Website Domain through Google Search Console
      • This verification proves you own the domain you are listing in your app metadata.
        • The Google account used in Play Console must also have ownership of the domain in Google Search Console. If this is not the case, you will not be able to verify your website, and your app submission may be blocked or delayed.
      • How to Check if You are an Owner
        • Go to Search Console
        • Select the domain (if visible)
        • If you see data, you're likely verified
        • If you get “Access Denied” or “No permissions”, you're not added — request access. The DNS record details update are listed to re-verify the domain
        • Ex image if you are not an owner yet:
      • Solution: Add Your Email to the Verified Domain
        • Find out who is the admin of your domain, typically this is someone in your IT, your agency owner or a development agency. 
        • The owner of the domain and have them follow these steps to add your email as a user:
          1. Go to Google Search Console
          2. Select/Enter your domain
          3. Navigate to Settings > Users and permissions
          4. Click “Add user” and enter the Gmail address used for:
            • The Google Play Developer Account, or
            • The Google Cloud Console project
          5. Role: Set the user as Full user or Owner
      • Alternative Solution: Re-Verify the Domain Yourself

        Agency Requirements

        Your agency must be registered as a legal corporate entity and can not be registered as a Sole Proprietorship or Individual. This is important because Apple explicitly states that sole proprietors must enroll as Individuals. They do not accept DBAs, fictitious business names, or trade names for Organization accounts.

        Why This Matters:

        On an Individual account, only the Account Holder (the person who enrolled) can access the Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles section at developer.apple.com. Even if  our engineering team is added as Admins in App Store Connect, GloveBox is not able to:

        • Create or manage signing certificates
        • Create or manage provisioning profiles
        • Register App IDs or bundle identifiers
        • Configure push notification certificates/keys
        • Manage app capabilities (push notifications, App Groups, Sign in with Apple, etc.)

        These are critical steps in the process of deploying and updating White Label iOS Apps.

        What Can Be Done?

        If you are currently registered as a Sole Proprietorship or Individual and want to start or continue with the GloveBox White Label app suite, you will need to register as an LLC, S-Corp, or C-Corp with your state and update or re-enroll for a DUNS # through Dunn & Bradstreet.

        Feel free to reach out to your GloveBox White Label Implementation Manager for guidance on how and where to start this process.
