Common App Issues
- Geolocation fails: turn off any active VPN, set Location to Always, restart the app.
- App crashes during NFL Sunday: close background apps, update to latest version.
- Deposit declined: bank may block gambling MCC codes — switch to PayPal or Play+.
- Border-area errors: if you\'re near PA/NJ/NY/MD/OH/WV/DE state lines, the system may need to refresh location signals.
