Geolocation Check
The geolocation check operates by cross-referencing the geographical GPS location data from the user's mobile device with the country of residence provided.
When the geolocation check is performed, the mobile device will prompt the user to grant permission to access their device's location data. Upon permission, real-time geolocation data is captured from the mobile device, including latitude and longitude coordinates.
The coordinates are used to determine the country where the mobile device is currently located. The identified country is then compared with the user's confirmed country of residence. If the countries match, the check will pass. If there is a discrepancy or the location service permission is denied, the check will require review.
This check can be used as an additional layer of verification to help prevent fraudulent application from overseas.
