Why Your Location Is Checked and How to Clear It

When you try to access bestball10, we run a geolocation check to confirm you're in an eligible state — this is a legal requirement, not an optional step.

What the Geolocation Check Actually Does

Every time you open the lobby, our system pings your device to confirm your physical location falls within a state where access is permitted under local law. That ping uses your browser's location API or your mobile device's GPS signal — whichever is available. If your browser has location access blocked, or if you're connected through a VPN that masks your real

coordinates, the check fails before you reach any game. Players in Philadelphia have flagged this most often when switching from a work Wi-Fi that routes traffic through an out-of-state server. Clearing that connection and re-enabling location permissions resolves it in the majority of cases.

WHY WE CHECK

How We Handle Location Verification

Geolocation verification is a state-level legal requirement — not something we control or can waive on request. Here's how we keep the process accurate and fair for everyone trying to access the lobby from an eligible state.

Third-Party Location Engine

We use an independent geolocation provider to cross-reference your IP address with your device's GPS data, reducing false blocks caused by cellular network routing inconsistencies.

No Location Data Stored

Your coordinates are checked in real time and are not retained after the session check completes. The system confirms eligibility; it does not log or share your physical location.

State Boundary Accuracy

Our location engine is updated regularly to reflect current state boundary definitions. Edge cases near state lines — common in metro areas — are handled by a secondary IP-layer confirmation check.

Manual Review Available

If automated checks return a false block on your account, our compliance team can run a manual eligibility review. Submit a request through account support with your location details.

GET HELP FAST

Where to Turn If the Check Keeps Failing

If the steps on this page don't clear the geolocation error, our account support team can pull the specific error code tied to your session and walk you through the fix. Reach us through live chat, email, or the in-app help button — whichever is fastest for you right now.

Live Chat Start a live chat session directly from the lobby or the help center. Give the agent your error code and device type — they'll confirm whether it's a browser, GPS, or network issue.
Email Support Send a screenshot of the geolocation error screen to our support address. Include your account username and the state you're located in so the team can check eligibility on their end.
In-App Help Button On mobile, tap the help icon in the top corner of the app. The in-app path routes directly to geolocation support and skips general queue wait times for location-specific issues.

Geolocation Terms You Should Know

These are the terms that come up most when a location check fails. Understanding what each one means makes it easier to follow fix instructions without guessing.

What is a geolocation check?

A geolocation check is an automated process that confirms your physical device location falls within a state where the platform is permitted to operate under local law.

What is IP geolocation?

IP geolocation maps your internet connection's IP address to a geographic region. It's one layer of the location check, though VPNs or shared networks can cause it to read incorrectly.

What does a location block mean?

A location block means the system could not confirm you're in an eligible state. It doesn't close your account — it simply pauses lobby access until the location check resolves.

What is GPS-based location verification?

GPS verification reads your device's satellite position data for a more precise fix than IP alone. Mobile devices use this; desktop browsers rely on Wi-Fi positioning or IP as a fallback.

What is a VPN conflict in geolocation?

A VPN conflict occurs when your tunnel routes traffic through a server in a different state or country, causing the location check to see that server's location instead of yours.

What is browser location permission?

Browser location permission is a setting you control that allows or blocks websites from reading your device's location data. Blocking it prevents the geolocation check from completing.

Answers to Your Geolocation Check Questions

These are the questions our account support team handles most often around location errors. If your exact situation isn't covered here, start a live chat and reference the error message you see on screen.

Access to the lobby depends on state law. We're required to confirm you're physically located in an eligible state each time you log in — it's a legal checkpoint, not an account penalty.

First, disconnect any VPN or proxy. Then open your browser settings, find the location permissions section, and set bestball10 to 'Allow.' Reload the page and run the check again.

On mobile, the check uses your device's GPS for the most accurate read. On desktop, it relies on browser location access and your IP. Mobile tends to resolve faster when GPS is enabled and the app has location permission.

It can. Our system runs a secondary IP-layer check for accounts near state lines. If you keep getting blocked despite being in an eligible state, contact support for a manual review of your session data.

On iPhone, go to Settings → Privacy → Location Services, find your browser or the bestball10 app, and set it to 'While Using.' On Android, open app permissions under Settings and enable location access.

Yes, the check runs at each login session. It's a brief process when your location settings are correct, but any change to your network or VPN status between sessions can trigger a new block.
