Xpoint secures Maryland licence

Miami-based Xpoint has secured its Maryland licence. Xpoint has joined forces with Crab Sports， a Maryland-based sportsbook operator to expand in the Maryland online sports betting market.

The Maryland Lottery and Gaming Control Commission awarded Xpoint a sports wagering contractor licence in 2023， expanding its reach across the US and Ontario.

Xpoint's Verify solution aims to ensure strict compliance with Maryland's gaming regulations， confirming player locations within authorised betting jurisdictions.

It caters to mobile and desktop operating systems， including iOS， Android， MacOS and Windows，Online Casino Games providing Crab Sports with a geolocation solution.

Manu Gambhir， Xpoint CEO， said: “Maryland represents a compelling opportunity for sportsbook operators and it has proven to be an extremely lucrative yet competitive market.

"We are proud to have supported Crab Sports since their launch in Maryland last year and we are committed to ensuring that the Xpoint platform continues to reliably and efficiently handle all geolocation needs so that our operator partners can focus on what they do best - operating their sportsbook.”

This development aligns with Xpoint's previous collaborations， notably its partnership with PlayStar as the official geolocation partner， ensuring regulatory compliance for PlayStar's online casino ventures in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

Additionally in March 2023， Gaming Innovation Group (GiG) also received licences in Maryland and Pennsylvania.
