IPQualityScore, provider of Localization and GeoIP

The technological core of IPQS is its proprietary honeypot network, comprising over 100,000 active detection traps distributed across more than 150 countries. This network captures malicious traffic, fraudulent account creation attempts, abusive payments, bots, and stolen credentials in real-time, continuously feeding an intelligence ecosystem that processes hundreds of millions of transactions daily. Complementing this network is a community blacklist where Fortune 500 companies and leading financial institutions report detected threats, enabling IPQS to identify new attack vectors before they appear on public lists. This mechanism, called Fraud Fusion, is the engine that drives the accuracy of its risk scores.

IPQS offers a comprehensive suite of specialized APIs directly relevant to iGaming: proxy, VPN, and Tor node detection with a 0-100 scoring, email verification with disposable account and spam trap detection, phone number validation in over 150 countries, device fingerprinting with over 300 data points per device, bot and automation detection, malicious URL analysis, and access to compromised credential databases via the dark web. For the gaming sector, there is also a dedicated SDK that allows direct integration into iOS and Android mobile platforms and applications, facilitating the assignment of unique Device IDs per player to detect duplicate accounts and bonus abuse.

The platform is particularly valued in iGaming for its ability to solve three critical industry problems: bonus abuse through multiple accounts from the same device or network, fraudulent transactions and chargebacks, and compliance with geographical restrictions through precise detection of users masking their real location with VPNs or proxies. Its scoring models are retrained daily, incorporating intelligence from global partners and payment processors, ensuring that detection adapts to fraudsters' tactics in real-time. IPQS claims up to 300 times greater accuracy than legacy providers and a cost up to 10 times lower than comparable enterprise-level solutions.

For Latin American operators, IPQS represents a particularly strategic tool in a region with high mobile penetration, a significant proportion of users accessing from shared connections or via VPNs, and markets undergoing regulation that demand increasingly sophisticated KYC and AML controls. Phone number coverage in over 150 countries includes the region's main markets, and the availability of a free plan with 5,000 monthly credits facilitates service evaluation without initial commitment. Its flexible pricing model, which includes pay-as-you-go options and scalable subscriptions, makes it accessible to both startups and enterprise-scale operators.
