Add one line for each account chess.com gives you: "chess.com, YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID, DIRECT". Use DIRECT when you hold the account yourself and RESELLER when a partner holds it and sells your inventory through chess.com. The account ID must be the seller_id chess.com lists for you in its sellers.json; chess.com 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.

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.
