Pointpin is a simple API that gives your sites and apps fast, reliable IP geolocation (and useful location data, too). No configuration, no troubleshooting: it just works. The lightweight JSON API makes integration trivial. Perfect for native apps (iOS or Android), web apps, or websites. We recommend using the official Pointpin Ruby gem for integration with Ruby apps. First install the gem by adding this to your gemfile.
