Questions about playstream.media
How do I add playstream.media to app-ads.txt?
Add one line for each account playstream.media gives you: "playstream.media, YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID, DIRECT". Use DIRECT when you hold the account yourself and RESELLER when a partner holds it and sells your inventory through playstream.media. The account ID must be the seller_id playstream.media lists for you in its sellers.json; playstream.media 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 playstream.media publish a sellers.json?
Yes. Its file at https://playstream.media/sellers.json listed 1,408 sellers when we last read it on 10 October 2026: 1,393 publishers, 15 intermediaries and 0 listed as both; 0% are confidential.

Why do playstream.media lines fail verification?
Of 6,029 lines naming playstream.media, 2,904 contradict its sellers.json. The most common case is "RESELLER but publisher" (2,343 lines): If the account is yours, declare it DIRECT. If a partner holds it, ask playstream.media why the account is listed as PUBLISHER.
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.
