Incognia, a location identity company based in Palo Alto, has announced its entrance into the US gaming market.
Earlier this week, the company announced the launch of its integrated geolocation compliance and account security solution. It is designed for digital operators in iGaming, sports wagering, daily fantasy sports & real money skilled based gaming.
The service protects player accounts and helps uncover fraud and abuse in real-time.
The service may come in handy in California, because although sports betting in California is not legal, other forms of legal gambling are, such as betting on horse races.
