Incognia, a digital identity company, has today launched its integrated geolocation compliance and account security solution for digital operators in iGaming, Sports Wagering, Daily Fantasy Sports, and Real Money Skilled-Based Gaming in the regulated US gaming market. This new signal aims to enable operators to comply with jurisdictional compliance requirements and protect player accounts from takeover fraud.
With Incognia’s tamper-resistant geolocation compliance solution, operators can benefit from advanced accuracy and precision, ensuring state-specific geofencing requirements, preventing wagering outside of state lines, and capturing every legitimate transaction. Before the launch, Incognia worked with Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) to conduct a functional review of the accuracy and reliability of the geolocation solution. GLI’s Attestation concluded that Incognia was able to detect any attempt to alter location data and respond accurately to valid location data.
“I was surprised that I didn’t uncover anything that required fixing and retesting, because I always do,” said Garett Krier, Testing Engineer at GLI.
Although new to geolocation compliance for gaming, Incognia’s highly precise location technology is used for frictionless account security and fraud prevention by global companies across industries. The technology detects suspicious login attempts automatically, blocks ATO attacks, and minimizes the operational burden of manual reviews.
Incognia’s combination of location behavior and device intelligence enables persistent device identification and location-based account takeover detection, capable of identifying suspicious activities like the use of GPS spoofing apps, VPN, emulators, root access, app tampering, and other forms of location spoofing and tools used to compromise the device integrity. The solution detects and blocks fraudulent behavior such as multi-accounting, identity theft, bonus abuse, collusion, proxy betting, and payment fraud while delivering frictionless player authentication.
“We are thrilled to bring several decades of combined experience building location technology to the growing US iGaming and Sports Wagering market,” said André Ferraz, CEO and Founder of Incognia. “In addition to providing a more precise geolocation compliance solution, we look forward to arming operators with a proactive fraud prevention signal that automates the use of location data and greatly reduces the need for manual fraud investigations.”
By using these services, operators can comply with state laws, protect their player accounts from ATO, and detect proxy betting, collusion, and payment fraud with pinpoint accuracy. As the gaming industry continues to grow, Incognia is committed to providing innovative solutions that improve the gaming experience while adapting its technology to new threats of fraud worldwide.
