GLOSSARY TERM
Geo-Blocking
Geo-blocking denies registration, deposits or site access based on location signals (IP, payment country, KYC address), implementing the legal reality that gambling permission is jurisdictional.
Honest limits, real duties
VPNs defeat IP blocks; layered enforcement (payment-origin checks, KYC-address reconciliation, terms voiding circumvented play) is the standard expected by regulators — perfect prevention isn’t, demonstrable effort is. Affiliate-side mirror: GEO-targeted campaigns must respect the operator’s blocked list, and traffic from banned markets doesn’t just fail qualification, it creates evidence of marketing where marketing is illegal.
