In order to get APNs certificate for being a provider of push notification for an app, do I need to pay ?

There are very poor instructions or how to create the certificate. The instructions are nice for creating

of CSR etc. But no where is there any information of what type of developer you should be to get this.

 

One outside link unrelated to apple says you should be an enterprise developer and paying

$299/year !!! for this.

This really and totally ***** and apple is just looting if that's a requirement.

They can charge this for enterprises or companies. I am an individual user and would like to

just have some push notifications sent using my own home server.

 

If I go to https://identity.apple.com/pushcert/ (which redirects to another page prompting for login)

and I login with my free developer account, it says that your apple ID must be associated with

an email address etc (which is a wrong/irrelevant message).

 

Does anyone know how to get a push certificate ?

Is payment required absolutely ? Or can it be done without paying ?

If payment is required, how do we encourage or make apple make it free ?
