Questions about bidstrade.io
How do I add bidstrade.io to app-ads.txt?
Add one line for each account bidstrade.io gives you: "bidstrade.io, YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID, DIRECT". Use DIRECT when you hold the account yourself and RESELLER when a partner holds it and sells your inventory through bidstrade.io. The account ID must be the seller_id bidstrade.io lists for you in its sellers.json; bidstrade.io will give it to you. Put the file at the root of the domain named as your developer website in the App Store and Google Play listings.
Does bidstrade.io publish a sellers.json?
Yes. Its file at https://bidstrade.io/sellers.json listed 42 sellers when we last read it on 10 October 2026: 32 publishers, 10 intermediaries and 0 listed as both; 0% are confidential.

Of 68,616 lines naming bidstrade.io, 62,973 contradict its sellers.json.

Buyers that check sellers.json drop these paths.
What is the difference between DIRECT and RESELLER?
DIRECT means the publisher owns the account; RESELLER means an intermediary sells the inventory on the publisher's behalf. DIRECT lines should match a PUBLISHER entry in the network's sellers.json, RESELLER lines an INTERMEDIARY entry.
