Acquiring approval of Apple Store for new app upload
involves a complex process. From sending them out for test in beta form, to
obtaining the device's UDID and adding it as a device in your iOS developer portal page, the process is pretty lengthy.
One can bypass it, which is unlikely feasible by using the traditional provisioning methods such as Ad-hoc Distribution, Custom B2B app method, etc. Try out iOS Beta Testing Service, aka TestFlight instead and experience the difference.

By using the TestFlight method of distribution, you can
simplify the process of getting UDIDs from all your devices. Plus, this will
enable you to easily manage and distribute your builds.
How to use it:
First, sign up for a free TestFlight service. Upon finishing
the sign up, you will come to the TestFlight dashboard. There you can invite
testers to join your team and register their devices. As they are done, you
will be receiving emails with their device UDIDs. Option to manually add to
your developer portal and the provisioning profile is available there.
So, when will you be able to upload the build to
TestFlight finally? You can do it as you got provisioning profile and app
built. You can also install TestFlight desktop app to automatically find out
compilation time of new build. You will also be asked if you want to upload it
to TestFlight.
Benefits of using TestFlight method during iOS App Development:
1. Receive the names of eligible users for the application
automatically
2. Check, select and upload names
3. TestFlight takes the onus of hosting the build and sending
out emails to users of selection.
4. TestFlight emails the users detail a thorough user guide
of the application
5. Users receive the details for app installation
TestFlight method puts a limit of app uploads by 100 devices
per account and this app is available for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch running
iOS 8 onwards.
