If you plan to publish an app to the Windows Store via the new integrated Windows Store deployment in Delphi, you should do it now. Microsoft is currently providing extremely good support for getting your first app published.

Currently there is still a separate review process in place at Microsoft to get your app into the store. As soon as you apply for getting your developer account at Microsoft unlocked for being able to get your UWP bridge apps into the store, they will contact you by e-mail and guide you through the process. The direct and fast support almost feels like having a personal trainer :).
Even if you don't have a developer account yet, Microsoft might be glad to give an account for free (may be different in other countries).

And it should be noted: Apps developed in Delphi and prepared with the integrated deployment feature are fully supported, and Microsoft seems to be very happy to cooperate with Embarcadero.

  1. I had the same experience, and I applied with a personal account, not a company one.

    And about Microsoft being happy, read towards the middle of this blog post: blogs.windows.com - Conversion options for bringing your existing desktop app to the Universal Windows Platform using the Desktop Bridge - Building Apps for Windows
