What Are The Benefis Of Your IP Geolocation Solution To My Business?
Our IP Geolocation solution provides merchants with the ability to evaluate the risk of an eCommerce transaction based on the geography of the customer, enabling merchants to view the customer's location, identified by country, state (or province, region etc.) and city.
The data allows merchants to match the physical locations of customers placing orders with the given shipping addresses, and it can be used to automatically block customers from certain restricted countries, based on a merchant's risk profile, with screening carried out before an order is placed.
