Proof of Location
XYO provides a powerful and reliable business solution for verifying user location. Whether you are building apps, platforms, or services that depend on physical presence, XYO’s Proof of Location technology enables real-time validation, anti-spoofing protection, and verifiable location data you can trust.
Anti-Spoofing and Location Accuracy
Location spoofing has become a widespread challenge in mobile and web-based services. XYO’s anti-spoofing technology ensures that only verified, authentic location data is collected and used. This helps maintain the integrity of your data, reduces the risk of fraud, and protects the quality of internal decision-making systems.
Real-Time Protection with Real-World Data
XYO enables instant location validation as events happen. With real-time verification, your application can confidently confirm user presence at specific locations. This empowers you to take secure, location-based actions with confidence, whether it's unlocking access, issuing rewards, or tracking movement in sensitive environments.
Better Data and Better Partnerships
Trustworthy data builds stronger business relationships. By using XYO to supply accurate, verified location data, you enhance your value as a partner. Whether you are collaborating with advertisers, developers, or analytics firms, reliable location inputs make your data more actionable, opening new opportunities and increasing long-term confidence in your platform.
Impact Across Industries
XYO’s Proof of Location technology creates new possibilities across a range of industries, including gaming, supply chain, logistics, retail, healthcare, and more.
Boost gameplay with real-world verification, unlocking in-game rewards for real-world actions.
Players can earn digital rewards by physically traveling to target locations, making specific purchases, or completing location-based challenges. XYO offers multiple, overlapping methods for validating location, depending on the use case and level of detail required.
These activities can trigger in-game bonuses, functional NFTs, and cross-platform benefits, merging physical exploration with digital engagement.
This location-based approach gives GameFi developers new ways to connect their virtual worlds to real-life behavior, enhancing immersion, engagement, and economic opportunity.
Enhance Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) by ensuring accurate, reliable location data.
DePIN projects often struggle with unreliable location data, such as 'Null Island' (0°N 0°E) entries that impact data integrity. With XYO's Proof of Location, DePIN projects can verify real device locations, filter out false data, and reduce fraud.
By validating and filtering location data, XYO enables DePIN networks to maintain accurate datasets, enhancing the integrity and reliability of data-driven decisions.
Maintain accurate and secure location tracking within logistics and supply chains.
Once a product leaves a facility or warehouse, it can be difficult to track. By validating item locations with XYO's Proof of Location at each stage, companies minimize loss, increase accountability, and improve issue resolution when delays occur.
The added security and accountability through XYO's Proof of Location is unmatched.
Authenticate attendance at events, conferences, or exclusive locations.
Exclusivity and rewards are key in today's event attendance. Whether a large-scale pop concert or a healthcare convention, events often want ways to reward desired behavior, and ensure no fraud occurs.
Organizes partnered with XYO can use XYO's Proof of Location to confirm attendee locations, offering exclusive digital rewards to verified attendees. This setup not only reduces ticket fraud but also boosts post-event engagement through personalized content.
Three Modes of Location Validation
XYO offers multiple, overlapping methods for validating location, depending on the use case and level of detail required.
Heuristic (Real-Time)
Heuristic mode provides real-time location verification using algorithms that evaluate different environmental and device inputs. It is lightweight, fast, and suited for ongoing, high-volume location requests.
Bound Witness (Real-Time)
Bound Witness mode validates interactions between multiple devices in real-time. It is ideal for scenarios where relative position and multi-party confirmation are needed, such as logistics handoffs, collaborative apps, and peer-to-peer verification.
Advanced (Post-Processed)
Advanced mode applies deeper post-processing to verify past locations with greater precision. This is useful in contexts where historical validation, auditability, or forensic-level verification is important.
