SBC Digital Brasil: insights on Brazil's regulatory changes
Brazil's regulated betting market is officially set to launch on January 1, 2025. Ahead of this landmark date, SBC Notícias Brasil has teamed up with SBC Summit Rio to present SBC Digital Brasil, a fully online event scheduled for December 11-12. This event will provide valuable knowledge and key insights into the transformative regulatory changes reshaping the industry.
The Brazilian Moment
and the Regulated Betting Market
The Brazilian betting market will operate under a comprehensive regulatory framework starting on the first day of 2025, marking a significant shift for the sector.
The main changes and key dates related to the new regulations.
With this new scenario, these rules are expected to generate approximately R$20 billion in taxes and fees in 2025, underscoring this market's economic potential example.
Companies will need to invest R$30 million in a five-year license that allows them to operate up to three brands under the exclusive “.bet.br” domain.
A 12% tax on gross revenue will be applied, and unlicensed operators may face fines of up to R$ 2 billion.
Measures such as identity verification and self-exclusion tools aim to protect bettors, while only online games of chance and fixed-odds betting will be permitted, with clear rules on winnings and payouts.
The regulatory framework is designed to professionalize the market and boost fiscal revenue, although challenges remain in monitoring unlicensed operators and tackling illegal practices.
