The U.S. is more than just the US (according to the ISO)
TL;DR
Geofencing for video streaming services must account for U.S. territories like Puerto Rico and others to avoid access issues. Properly configuring country codes ensures all eligible viewers can access content.
✦ Why It Matters
Update your geofencing configurations to include all U.S. territories today to avoid access issues.
Key Takeaways
- Include all U.S. territories in geofencing configurations.
- Recognize Puerto Rico's unique ISO country code (PR).
- Utilize tools like MaxMind for accurate geolocation.
- Ensure access for viewers in remote U.S. territories.
How It Works
Geofencing software uses ISO 3166 country codes to determine user locations. By including both the U.S. code (US) and codes for its territories, services can accurately restrict or allow access based on geographic eligibility.
