The Challenge
Expanding into the Ontario market in Canada with their flagship Wildz brand, Rootz needed to ensure that they were meeting stringent regulatory compliance requirements by integrating with a geolocation provider. Ensuring players are within licensed jurisdictions is crucial for compliance and responsible gaming practices in Ontario, and Rootz were also looking for a geolocation provider that would make the process of location verification seamless and user-friendly to enhance the overall gaming experience.
