Betano, Kaizen Gaming’s sports betting and gaming brand, announces the renewal of its successful partnership with Felipe Massa, active since 2023. The Brazilian driver, recognized worldwide for his career in Formula 1 and recent victories in Stock Car, which made him runner-up in the sport, will continue his partnership with Betano under a multi-year contract, reinforcing the connection between the brand, driver and his fans.
“Felipe Massa is more than an ambassador for Betano; he is a symbol of trust that shares similar values with us and has a story that inspires. Renewing this partnership is part of our commitment to offering fans unique experiences and expanding our presence in Brazilian sports. Massa will also be our ambassador for responsible gaming and will engage in social initiatives driven by Betano,” says Guilherme Figueiredo, Betano’s Country Manager in Brazil.
To celebrate the renewal and officially sign the contract, Massa visited Betano’s brand-new office in São Paulo, Brazil. Employees had the chance to meet him in person, get autographs, and take photos while sharing their excitement for the renewed partnership.
“This is a very special relationship. I am proud to represent a brand that understands and values sports. Each event and activation we have done together was created with one goal in mind: to create unforgettable moments for sports fans. It is a pleasure to continue this collaboration and I’m looking forward to achieving more together in the coming years,” says Felipe Massa.
The Brazilian driver has a career full of achievements. Runner-up in F1 in 2008 and with victories in several international competitions, he is an idol to thousands of motorsports enthusiasts.
During his partnership with Betano, Felipe Massa participated in several activations with sports fans and the brand’s customers. Among the highlights, the Betano Racing event stands out, where influencers and guests had the opportunity to race side by side with the driver, creating moments of adrenaline and fun. In addition, Betano welcomed Massa to the Copa América Cup Tour in São Paulo and to activations in Belo Horizonte during the historic first stage of the Stock Car in the city.
