GameScorekeeper helps esports bookmaker verify age

When he won the Fortnite World Cup and Yu JackeyLove Wen-Bo 17, Kyle Giersdorf was just 16 years old when his team won the League of Legends World Championship. The number of athletes under 18 years of age is rising so that betting operators are increasingly necessary for compliance with athlete age regulations.

It made it easier for GameScorekeeper to look at this challenge:-In football, it is fairly easy to classify most teams under the age of 18. Yet many teams in esports are combining under18-18 and over 18 competitors, making our customers increasingly interested in a service that makes the age of the competitors clear and operational, said founder and CEO Felix Klastrup, GameScorekeeper.
