Enabling FAST channels

Providers of free ad-supported streaming television (FAST Free ad-supported television) content can offer free channels to your end users.

To provide FAST Free ad-supported television, a content provider needs the unique identifier for the device playing the channel. The identifier is shared with the content provider by enabling the FAST Free ad-supported television feature.

You can enable FAST Free ad-supported television for an existing channel, or when you create a new channel.
