The Challenge
Operating within Ontario's regulated gaming market requires every player to be accurately verified before accessing real-money gaming products. OLG needed a geolocation solution that could provide highly accurate location verification across web and mobile without introducing unnecessary friction into the player journey.
Alongside maintaining a seamless customer experience, the solution also needed to integrate efficiently with Bede Gaming's platform, scale across multiple digital products and provide the reliability expected from one of Canada's most established gaming brands.
This new launch is a wonderful milestone that we are pleased to celebrate together. We’ve been impressed with the innovative technical solution of the GeoLocs product, which provides us with confidence in managing live player traffic in accordance with local regulations. Bede remains committed to providing a high quality, stable and compliant service, and mkodo’s GeoLocs technology plays an important part in our solution for OLG’s players.
