            Yes, it is necessary to enroll in Apple developers account for $99. Without this IPA will not generate.
Another interesting thing: You can try this to export ipa file from XCode without a developer account. This ipa only for testing I think not for release.

        If you need to have an Apple developer account in order to generate the .ipa. Once you generate the ipa you can use this page https://www.diawi.com/ to distribute your app.
