Location Verification

Benefit

The Location Verification API uses carrier-grade network signals on location. It is a battery-friendly, unspoofable alternative to GPS for fraud prevention, regulatory compliance, and high-value transactions.

Variants

  • Location Retrieve: Retrieve the current location coordinates of a device
  • Location Verification: Verify the location of a device
  • Geofencing subscription: Subscribes to notifications when a device enters or leaves defined geographic areas

Usecases

Here are concise, value-driven explanations for each term, tailored to your enterprise and CAMARA-aligned context:
- **Unspoofable Location Signals**: Leverage **carrier-grade network data** to verify user location with confidence—unlike GPS or IP-based methods, these signals cannot be manipulated by emulators, VPNs, or fraudsters. This adds a **trust layer** to your fraud prevention, compliance, and access control workflows, reducing false positives and chargebacks.
- **Geo-restrictions**: Enforce **regulatory and business rules** (e.g., gambling, content access, financial services) by validating a user’s location against operator-verified network data—even when GPS is disabled or unavailable. Ensure compliance and **market-specific access control** without relying on easily bypassed device-level checks.
- **Low-friction onboarding**: Verify user location **without requiring permissions, battery-draining processes, or manual input**, accelerating time-to-value for onboarding, payments, and access flows. Achieve **<5-day integration** with a single API, minimizing drop-offs and support overhead.
- **Layered security**: Combine **network-sourced location signals** with SIM-swap detection, KYC, and behavioral analytics for a **multi-factor risk assessment** that adapts to evolving threats. Strengthen fraud prevention and compliance **without adding user friction** or disrupting existing workflows.
