Improved systems and methods for enhancing the performance of network based computerized content rendering and hosting and providing of devices, systems and/or platforms by modifying the capabilities and providing non-native functionality to such devices, systems and/or platforms through a novel and improved application, networked based enforcement of geographical compliance, data processing and networking framework.
1. A method comprising:
maintaining, by a computer-implemented geolocation validation application, geolocation information for a device of a user in connection with a bet of the user with a betting operator;
receiving, by the geolocation validation application, a geolocation compliance payload comprising information indicating a recent geolocation of the user device;
receiving, by the geolocation validation application and from a betting server of the betting operator, a request to validate the geolocation of the user device prior to allowing the bet of the user;
extracting, by geolocation validation application, the information from the payload;
using, by geolocation validation application, the information extracted from the payload to make a determination whether the recent geolocation of the user device is valid; and
sending, by geolocation validation application and to the betting server, a response to the geolocation validation request in accordance with the determination.
2. The method of claim 1 , the payload is received from a geolocation compliance server.
3. The method of claim 2 , the payload is received from the geolocation compliance server via an affiliate application of a betting affiliate.
4. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:
communicating, by the geolocation validation application, at least a portion of the geolocation information comprising geolocation check information to the geolocation compliance server.
5. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:
obtaining, by the geolocation validation application, a decryption key from the geolocation compliance server; and
extracting, by the geolocation validation application, the information from the payload comprising using the decryption key to decrypt the payload.
6. The method of claim 1 , the geolocation validation application is a component of the betting server.
7. The method of claim 1 , the geolocation validation application is a component of a geolocation server of the betting operator.
8. The method of claim 1 , the geolocation validation application is a component of an affiliate application of a betting affiliate of the betting operator.
9. The method of claim 8 , the affiliate application is a client application of the user device.
10. The method of claim 8 , the affiliate application is a server application of the betting affiliate.
11. The method of claim 1 , the response to the geolocation validation request is further based on at least one fraud prevention check.
12. The method of claim 11 , the at least one fraud prevention check comprising validating login credentials of the user.
13. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
updating, by the geolocation validation application, the maintained geolocation information for the user device using the payload information indicating the recent geolocation of the user device.
14. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium tangibly encoded with computer-executable instructions that when executed by a processor associated with a computing device perform a method comprising:
maintaining, by a geolocation validation application, geolocation information for a device of a user in connection with a bet of the user with a betting operator;
receiving, by the geolocation validation application, a geolocation compliance payload comprising information indicating a recent geolocation of the user device;
receiving, by the geolocation validation application and from a betting server of the betting operator, a request to validate the geolocation of the user device prior to allowing the bet of the user;
extracting, by geolocation validation application, the information from the payload;
using, by geolocation validation application, the information extracted from the payload to make a determination whether the recent geolocation of the user device is valid; and
sending, by geolocation validation application and to the betting server, a response to the geolocation validation request in accordance with the determination.
15. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 14 , the payload is received from a geolocation compliance server.
16. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 14 , the computing device is the betting server and the geolocation validation application is a component of the betting server.
17. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 14 , the computing device is a geolocation server of the betting operator and the geolocation validation application is a component of the geolocation server.
18. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 14 , the computing device is the user device and the geolocation validation application is a client application of a betting affiliate of the betting operator.
19. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 14 , the computing device is a betting affiliate server and the geolocation validation application is a server application of a betting affiliate of the betting operator.
20. A computing device comprising:
a processor;
a non-transitory storage medium for tangibly storing thereon geolocation validation application program logic for execution by the processor, the geolocation validation application program logic comprising:
maintaining logic executed by the processor for maintaining geolocation information for a device of a user in connection with a bet of the user with a betting operator;
receiving logic executed by the processor for receiving a geolocation compliance payload comprising information indicating a recent geolocation of the user device;
receiving logic executed by the processor for receiving, from a betting server of the betting operator, a request to validate the geolocation of the user device prior to allowing the bet of the user;
extracting logic executed by the processor for extracting the information from the payload;
using the information extracted from the payload to make a determination whether the recent geolocation of the user device is valid; and
sending logic executed by the processor for sending a response to the geolocation validation request in accordance with the determination to the betting server.
