Bypassing locks: mirrors, rotation and uninterrupted access
Click to expand / collapse

In a number of countries, access to betting sites may be restricted by government agencies. To provide players with continuous access to the platform, technical solutions are used: mirrors, domain rotation, dynamic links, as well as alternative communication channels. This is standard practice for global operators operating in different jurisdictions.


What mirrors are and why they are needed

A site mirror is a replica of a platform hosted on an alternate domain.

AdvantageDescription
Retaining accessThe player can continue the game without a VPN or proxy
Full functionalityAuthorization, deposits, rates - work like on the main site
SafetyMirrors use SSL and binding to one back-end
Quick replacementWhen one mirror is locked, the following is output

Domain rotation

To increase stability, dynamic domain changes are used:
  • Planned rotation: X-day domain change
  • Reactive rotation: when blocking the current address
  • Central redirect server or proxy linker
  • Integration with Telegram bot, email, push - for notifications about a new address

key> Site-status Services. io 'allow real-time display of the work address.


Technological solutions

CDN and Anycast IP - reduce the impact of DNS locks

DNS over HTTPS (DoH) - secure DNS queries

Integration with anti-lock solutions from Cloudflare or own backend

PWA/Mobile Applications - Sustainable Access without Domain

Deep link system for sending links from push, email, instant messengers


Communication with users

Telegram bot with automatic response: "Current platform address"

Domain change email (if subscription is active)

Push notifications when changing mirrors

Offline pages with a "Access Now" button


Platform Benefits

Resistance to DNS locks and failures

Saving traffic and rates when changing addresses

Full platform availability 24/7

Improved UX: the player does not lose the account and session

Protecting reputation - no sense of "platform gone"


Bypassing locks is not hacking, but infrastructure resilience. The platform, which has previously implemented mirrors, domain rotation and alternative access channels, provides the player with stability, and the business with continuous operating activities.
