📝 About this app
The Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) app from U.S. Customs and Border Protection allows Nationals of Visa Waiver Program (VWP) countries to apply and pay for a travel authorization without a visa. The ESTA app is a mobile version of the ESTA application process and information that can also be found on the ESTA website at https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov.
The ESTA app currently has two features available: Apply for New Individual Application and Search for Existing Application.
• The “GET STARTED” feature allows travelers to create a new ESTA application, pay for the ESTA and submit the application to be processed by the system to determine if they are eligible to travel to the United States under the Visa Waiver Program without a visa. The system will provide the traveler with an automated response.
• The “FIND IT” feature allows travelers to check the status of their existing ESTA application..
CBP recommends that you apply for ESTA at the time you book your travel, but no less than 72 hours prior to boarding.

✨AI Revenue EstimateCONFIDENCE: HIGH
The ESTA Mobile app, developed by US Customs and Border Protection, is a free application that facilitates the application and payment for the Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA), a government travel authorization. The app itself does not generate revenue through traditional app monetization methods like in-app purchases or subscriptions; the $21 fee collected is for the government service of the ESTA application, not for the app itself. Therefore, the app's direct revenue is estimated to be zero.

★☆☆☆☆ Bug report
Submission from the US is blocked during the information confirmation screen. After the passport MRZ, liveness, and tap, the information is confirmed before sending. The country of issue is not a selectable drop down and isn’t pre populated…
★☆☆☆☆ Dump the App
It’s slow, too much scrolling, you’re faster doing it online…

🌍Geographic ReachNot ranked
This app is currently outside the top 100 grossing in all 9 countries we monitor (US, UK, DE, FR, JP, CA, AU, BR, IN). Niche or new apps often launch this way — popularity rankings appear once daily revenue clears the regional threshold.
Profile is built from iTunes Lookup + developer site scrape + ML revenue model. Empty fields show "Not found" — additional sources (Crunchbase, X, IndieHackers, Acquire.com) coming.
