Publishing to Samsung Galaxy Store? Learn how to link to your developer page & direct users to rate your app! Find your SellerID & AppPackageName.
We are finishing the process of publishing all of our Green Sauce Games games to the Samsung Galaxy Store. The vast majority of games will not need any changes. But we have two necessary changes :
- Update the link for when the player clicks to see more of our games (to open the page directly on the Samsung Galaxy Store)
- Update the link for when the game kindly suggests a review to the player.
Well, after some research I discovered the correct way to do it:
First, you will need to find out what your Seller ID and App Package Name are using for the game.
To get the SellerID, you need to access your seller page, and then just click on the profile at the top of the page. There you will find Seller DeepLink information, it is this information that you will need to use.
In our case, for the game Secrets of Magic 2: Witches and Wizards we have the following data:
SellerID = 000000046839
AppPackageName = com.greensaucegames.secretsofmagic2full
View your developer page
https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/sellerProductList.as?SellerID=000000046839
Change with your sellerId
Display the game page for Rating
https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/AppRating.as?appId=com.greensaucegames.secretsofmagic2full
Exchange for your appPackageName
Well, with that you have the links to display your developer page on the Galaxy Store and you have the Link to the Direct Review of your application!
Don't forget to leave in the comments if it worked for you and what else would you like for tips! Live long and prosper! 🖖 Peace!

FAQ
Where do I find my Seller ID for the Samsung Galaxy Store?
You find it by accessing your seller page on the Samsung Galaxy Store and clicking on the profile at the top of the page, where you'll see the Seller DeepLink information containing your Seller ID.
How do I build a direct link to my Samsung Galaxy Store developer page?
Use the URL pattern https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/sellerProductList.as?SellerID=<your SellerID>, replacing the SellerID value with your own to open your developer page directly on the Galaxy Store.
How do I link directly to my app's review/rating screen on the Galaxy Store?
Use https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/AppRating.as?appId=<your AppPackageName>, replacing the appId value with your app's package name to open the rating screen directly.
Do these deep links require any code changes to my app itself?
No, these are just URLs — you plug in your own SellerID and AppPackageName and open them (for example, from a button in your game), no other app code changes are described in this post.
