IP and Location Spoofing Detection
Ensure that the individuals and merchants you’re onboarding are not attempting to defraud you by hiding behind a fake IP address or pretending to be from a different location.
With the IP and Location spoofing API, you can now be confident that the users on your platform are not attempting to fake their location or their IP address via a VPN or a proxy.
