Xpoint, a leading geolocation and compliance technology company, has officially secured a vendor license to enter the regulated sports betting market in Massachusetts. The approval marks another strategic milestone in the company’s accelerating North American expansion, reinforcing its role as a core provider of gaming infrastructure.

Xpoint’s geolocation solution is now available to operators across the Bay State, delivering high-precision tools designed to ensure player activity remains fully compliant with the strict regulatory framework established by the Massachusetts Gaming Commission.

With Massachusetts added to its portfolio, Xpoint is now authorized to support regulated online sports wagering across 28 states and territories, as well as Ontario in Canada.

Built specifically for the gaming industry, Xpoint’s platform uses advanced geofencing technology to deliver precise location verification. By leveraging multiple data points, the system helps prevent wagers from unauthorized jurisdictions while identifying suspicious activity in real time.

The company’s platform development has also been supported by a recent investment round aimed at accelerating growth and enhancing product capabilities.

Manu Gambhir, CEO of Xpoint, said: “Securing our license in Massachusetts is a vital step as we continue to make strides in the geolocation space. Massachusetts has a passionate sports culture and a sophisticated regulatory framework, and we are excited to provide the precision technology necessary to maintain the integrity of the state’s sports betting ecosystem.

This expansion underscores the global demand for more innovative and adaptable compliance solutions, and we remain committed to being the most reliable partner for regulated operators worldwide.”

This marks the third million-dollar winner in Massachusetts this year

JERSEY CITY, N.J., May 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lotto.com, the nation’s first online lottery platform to digitally deliver draw games and scratch tickets, is thrilled to celebrate another big winner in Massachusetts. Lotto.com customer Myles B. claimed the $1,000,000 grand prize from the “$4,000,000 Cash King Doubler” Digital Scratch game. This win marks several exciting milestones for Lotto.com including:

• 3rd million-dollar winner in Massachusetts
• 5th million-dollar winner in 2025
• 5th consecutive month with a million-dollar winner this year

Myles, who has been playing with Lotto.com for just two months, is celebrating his first big win through the platform. “I wasn’t sure about using the app at first,” he shared. “But after seeing other winners’ stories, I decided to give it a shot, and I’m so glad I did. I can buy a home and give my daughter a yard to play in – a dream of mine that’s now within reach.”

In October 2024, Lotto.com became the first lottery courier to deliver scratch tickets digitally in Massachusetts. As with all tickets ordered on the Lotto.com platform, the Massachusetts lottery ticket helps contribute incremental funds to meaningful commonwealth-run programs including local aid for public safety staffing and equipment, snow removal, local road improvements, school services, programs for seniors and more.

“Massachusetts certainly seems to be the luckiest place in the country for the Lotto.com platform,” said Thomas Metzger, CEO of Lotto.com Inc. “This marks the third million-dollar winner in the Commonwealth since launching in Massachusetts late last year, and we’re very proud  to be bringing new players to the game.”

In the fiscal year 2023, the Massachusetts Lottery returned a record $1.2 billion in net profit to the Commonwealth for distribution of unrestricted local aid to the 351 towns and cities in Massachusetts, which Lotto.com is honored to now be contributing to. Along with their phenomenal returns, the Commonwealth boasts both the highest scratch and total per capita lottery sales in the country. The Massachusetts Lottery has generated over $155 billion in revenue and returned over $33 billion in net profit to the Commonwealth since its inception in 1972.
