Xpoint, the leading geolocation and compliance technology company specializing in North American sports betting and iGaming markets, has confirmed that another Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) partner, Flex Fantasy, is now live with Xpoint Lite – Xpoint’s specialist geolocation product for DFS operators. Flex Fantasy, is the new fun, simple DFS platform that enables players to use their existing season-long team to engage in as many challenges as they want against other players, instead of having to pick a new daily fantasy line-up each week, whether they are in the player’s season-long league or in a separate league.

“Summer 2022 has been extremely busy for our team, and we’re delighted that we can now unveil that we have also added Flex Fantasy to our partner list,” commented Marvin Sanderson, Xpoint CEO and Co-Founder. “The team behind Flex bring fresh thinking and a great product to the DFS space, and we’re proud to have Xpoint Lite helping them go to market.”

Xpoint Lite is the go-to option for Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) operators in the growing North American market. Embedded within partner platforms (web and apps), Xpoint Lite is a Software Development Kit (SDK) that provides DFS operators with state-of-the-art geolocation technology which helps ensure they meet North American regulatory and compliance standards, and uses location data to help them unlock the true potential of their geolocation investment.

“The Xpoint team see us as true partners, and we’re very happy to have their tech embedded within our platform,” commented Joel Cettina, CEO and Founder of Flex Fantasy. “We have ambitious growth plans, and Xpoint will be able to scale up as we expand, something that was key to our decision to work with them. We’re excited about our own future, and pleased that Xpoint are playing such a key role in our ongoing development.”
