# PlayStation Direct
### Preliminary Checklist
Before setting up tasks on Playstation Direct, make sure you have everything below prepared:
* **Profiles**
> Create and save your checkout [profiles](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-profiles-tab/how-do-i-add-a-profile) under the **Profiles tab** in Stellar. These contain your billing, shipping and payment info.
* **Proxies**
> - High-quality **ISP** or **Residential** proxies are required.
> - Low-quality or flagged proxies will cause **Akamai-related errors.**
> - For reliable performance, consider using **Stella Proxies ISPs or Residentials.**
> * If you're looking for proxies, check out [Stella Proxies](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/stella-proxies) for high quality ISP and Residential proxies.
* **Playstation accounts**
> This module requires an Playstation account. Before you start, double-check that your billing and shipping information lines up with the profile you’ll be using.
* **Cook Group Access**
> Optional but recommended. Your [cook group](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/cook-groups) can help you find product URLs, SKUs and early restock alerts.
