description: Pi Network mainnet listing requirements and compliance rules. Use when checking if the app meets Pi ecosystem standards, preparing for mainnet submission, or reviewing compliance.

Pi Mainnet Listing Requirements

Ensure the app meets all Pi Browser Ecosystem listing standards. Violations of any requirement will prevent mainnet listing.

When to Use This Skill

•Preparing the app for mainnet submission
•Reviewing compliance before deployment
•Checking if a feature violates Pi ecosystem rules
•Answering questions about what's allowed in Pi Apps

Seven Mandatory Requirements

1. Fully Functional App with Professional UI

The app must be fully operational with a clean, user-friendly interface. All interactive elements must function correctly.

Checklist:

• No broken links or dead buttons
• All forms validate and submit correctly
• Loading states and error handling for all async operations
• Responsive design for mobile (Pi Browser is mobile-first)

2. Developer KYC Verified

Complete identity verification through the Pi KYC process before applying.

3. No Trademark Violations

Domain name must NOT start with "pi".

Domain	Status
`pibananas.com`	BANNED
`bananas.com`	OK
`mypiapp.com`	OK (doesn't START with "pi")

Do not misuse Pi branding elements (logo, name, colors in misleading ways).

4. Pi Authentication ONLY

Integrate Pi's Authentication SDK for all user logins. No alternatives allowed.

Banned:

•Email / password login
•Google, Facebook, Apple sign-in
•Phone number auth
•Any third-party auth provider
•localStorage-based auth fallback

Required:

•Pi.authenticate() as the sole login method
•Server-side token verification via GET api.minepi.com/v2/me

5. Pi-Only Transactions

All financial transactions must use Pi exclusively.

Banned:

•Fiat currency payments (USD, EUR, etc.)
•Other cryptocurrency tokens
•In-app currencies convertible to fiat
•Links to exchanges

6. No External Redirects

Keep users within the app and Pi Browser ecosystem.

Banned:

•Redirects to external websites
•Opening external browsers
•Links that leave Pi Browser

Evaluated case-by-case:

•Essential external resources (may be allowed with justification)

7. Minimal Data Collection

Collect only data essential for app functionality.

Banned:

•Collecting emails (unless directly necessary)
•Collecting phone numbers
•Requesting unnecessary personal information
•Tracking beyond functional requirements

Mainnet vs Testnet

Feature	Mainnet	Testnet

Status	Enclosed Network (firewalled)	Open for testing
Resets	Never	Periodic resets possible

Current Mainnet Restrictions (Enclosed Period)

•No connectivity between Pi and other blockchains or exchanges
•Access only through Pi Wallet and Pi Browser
•Whitelisted API calls only
•Pioneer-to-Pioneer and Pioneer-to-App transfers allowed

Sandbox / Testnet Development

•Register Development URL in Developer Portal (develop.pi)

•Authorize via "Authorize Sandbox" flow between desktop and Pi mobile app
•Use Test-Pi for all payment testing
