A5 Labs, the organization responsible for the rapidly growing online poker platform WPT Global, has teamed up with GeoComply to enhance its safety protocols. Boasting thousands of users from more than 50 nations, WPT Global is adopting a proactive strategy to guarantee fairness and protection. GeoComply, a frontrunner in fraud deterrence and digital security, will deploy its advanced technologies to identify and thwart any illicit actions.
John Andress, Chief Security Officer at A5 Labs, stressed the significance of this collaboration, noting that internet poker has historically been vulnerable, particularly in its initial stages. He underscored their dedication to remaining ahead of cyber risks as WPT Global expands its reach.
GeoComply’s system will not only combat dishonesty but also ensure regulatory adherence through location verification. This implies users can only engage with the platform from areas where online poker is authorized, safeguarding both participants and the enterprise.
Mark Blunden, VP of Sales and Client Relations at GeoComply, conveyed enthusiasm about supporting A5 Labs’ international expansion. He emphasized that their technology, proven effective in tightly controlled markets like North America, will provide A5 Labs with the assurance to function securely on a global scale.
The eagerly awaited WPT500 tournament is happening in Mexico City, featuring an impressive $500,000 prize! To ensure fairness and excitement, GeoComply’s technology will eliminate any bots or dishonest participants attempting to unfairly win.
