Phyllyp Sedicias: Localisation will define the market leaders in Brazil
Localisation has become somewhat of a buzzword across the iGaming industry as of late. But for Phyllyp Sedicias, Country Director for Brazil at WA.Technology, localisation will be the key battleground for operators looking to stand out from the crowd in Brazil.
Brazil has, without a doubt, become one of the most exciting territories for gambling companies to expand their international footprint. And it’s easy to see why.
Boasting a population of more than 212 million people, combined with high rates of mobile and internet adoption and a strong cultural acceptance of gambling, it’s safe to say that the jewel in LatAm’s crown presents a shining opportunity.
With the regulated market expected to officially launch on 1 January, questions are starting to arise over player behaviours, trends, and how best to cater to the unique requirements of this market. We’re here to solve that.
From the types of products you offer to the way in which you engage with bettors, there are plenty of considerations that must be made before taking your first steps into this nascent market. If you want to make the best possible first impressions with players – you need unmatched personalisation and expertise. This is where knowledge of the local market and a strong B2B platform provider comes in handy – and it’s what we’re ready to be the best at as Brazil goes live.
Local knowledge
In short, WA.Technology prides itself on being one of the few B2B gambling providers with extensive local expertise in the Brazilian market. We have a team of more than 50 people based out of our two offices in Recife, all of whom have considerable experience in the iGaming space.
Among our team leaders in Brazil is our Director of Regulatory Affairs, who supports us in staying one step ahead of any legislative developments. In fact, we’re one of the few providers with a director dedicated solely to navigating Brazilian regulation, which puts us in an incredibly strong position to support our partners looking to enter this burgeoning market.
Having boots on the ground has a number of benefits. It gives us first-hand experience of the pain points and challenges that our partners might face, giving us a unique insight into how to adapt our product suite accordingly.
To give you an example, the topic of payment methods is one that many operators speak to us about. And our advice? Go local!
For those who have been following the Brazilian market closely, you might be aware of the growing popularity of Pix. Created by Banco Central do Brasil, Pix is an instant payment ecosystem that enables players to send or receive payment transfers via their mobile device in a matter of seconds.
In recent years, it has become the payment method of choice for many Brazilians, with many favouring this over more traditional e-wallets and other digital payment methods. So, for gambling operators, integrating Pix into your platform is no longer a convenience – it’s a necessity.
As a platform provider, we see potential in offering a localised, mobile-friendly solution incorporating local payment methods and innovations specific to that market. For us, this is what sets us apart from other providers on the market.
We have been tapping into our team’s extensive expertise in the iGaming experience, especially in the LatAm market, and working hard to bring that knowledge and expertise to operators across Brazil.
We’re not just localising payments, either. Localisation has shaped every element of our platform. At WA.Technology, we offer custom solutions that meet each customer’s specific needs. We want to avoid the “carte blanche” approach that you sometimes see from big-brand providers; instead, each of our solutions is tailored to the unique requirements of our operators. This is an area we excel at better than anyone else, and it’s fast making us the partner of choice for the regulated market.
What we offer is designed to make brands the best they can be. For those looking to enter Brazil, we have specifically adapted our portfolio to include products centred around popular verticals, such as sports, plus solutions that help operators drive acquisition and retention. These two areas will be major battlegrounds as more companies flood the market.
Having established solid partnerships with eight leading local operators already, WA.Technology has been working closely with our partners to understand the key player trends and products that can help operators scale their business within the Brazilian market. If you want the best, we’re here to deliver.
Driving acquisition
So, what do you need to stand out as an operator brand? With influencer marketing now off the table in Brazil following the government’s recent ban on X, formerly known as Twitter, you will need to focus your attention on affiliate marketing. However, navigating the world of affiliation can sound quite tricky from the outset.
Developed specifically for the Brazilian iGaming market, our WA.Affiliates solution will be particularly crucial for operators looking to gain an edge over the competition, and it’s easily the best available.
Equipped with affiliate tracking software, performance updates, and an integrated wallet, we firmly believe this will boost operators’ capabilities to interact with new players and enable sportsbooks and casinos to optimise their performance and drive long-term growth.
For many operators looking to enter Brazil, it might be an easy option to simply roll out a standard sportsbook or casino platform that offers a range of markets. This sounds great from the outset, but it will make it incredibly difficult to stand out from the floods of other operators offering similar, if not identical, products.
Of course, it goes without saying that Brazil is known for its inherent love of sports. You just have to look at the support for football teams across the country to see this in action. However, the challenge with traditional sports is that they are subject to rigid calendars, with only a handful of games taking place each week. As a result, players must wait several hours, if not days or weeks, between fixtures to place a bet. For operators, this makes it very difficult to maintain a strong engagement with sports bettors. It’s all about instant entertainment, and we’re here to deliver.
Again, it’s all about localisation – and WA.Technology is the solution to this problem. Specifically designed for bettors to test their sporting knowledge in a fun, engaging environment, WA.Fantasy is a tried and tested acquisition tool for both sportsbooks and casinos to cross-sell fantasy games to players and boost engagement and retention.
Featuring a range of Fantasy Sports, Pick’Em Player Props, and free-to-play predictor games, all designed for Brazil, WA.Fantasy gives players the chance to create teams, leagues, and private contests to add an additional element of competition and gamification to their gambling experience.
What next for Brazil?
While we still await further news on how the Brazilian market will pan out, one thing is for certain: WA.Technology is here to support our partners during every step of their expansion journey – especially if they’re serious about becoming an industry leader.
Our full spectrum of iGaming solutions puts us in an unmatched position to capitalise on the growth opportunities that the Brazilian market presents and enables us to drive our partners’ businesses to new heights as the region continues to evolve. We’re here to make our big brand partners the best out there, and if you’re serious about being the best, make sure to give us a call.

Brazil advances integrity agenda amid strong market growth
Brazil’s regulated betting market continues to gain structure and momentum, as the country balances regulatory consolidation, integrity safeguards, and commercial growth.
Over the past week, key developments, from federal policy implementation to strategic partnerships and product innovation, highlight how the ecosystem is maturing ahead of major global sporting events.
Government launches national policy to combat match-fixing
A major regulatory milestone was reached with the creation of the National Policy for the Prevention and Combating of Sports Manipulation (PNPEMR). Established through a joint ordinance by the Ministries of Sports, Finance, and Justice, the policy introduces a comprehensive national framework designed to address integrity risks in sports.
The initiative is structured around four central pillars: regulation, prevention, monitoring and enforcement, aiming to protect the credibility and unpredictability of sporting competitions in Brazil.
The policy emphasizes interinstitutional cooperation, bringing together public authorities, sports organizations, betting operators and international bodies.
Among its key measures are:
- Standardization of reporting flows for suspicious betting activity
- Continuous education programs for athletes, referees and sports officials
- Protection mechanisms for whistleblowers
- Strengthening of criminal investigations targeting organized match-fixing networks
Under the framework, the Ministry of Sports will coordinate implementation, while the Ministry of Finance will oversee betting regulation and operator compliance. The Ministry of Justice and Public Security, alongside the Federal Police, will lead intelligence-sharing and enforcement efforts, particularly in cases with interstate or international scope. See DOU
A multi-stakeholder governance committee will be responsible for monitoring progress and proposing adjustments, ensuring that the policy evolves alongside the market.
This move reinforces Brazil’s intention to align regulatory oversight with global integrity standards, particularly relevant as the country prepares for high-volume betting scenarios during major international competitions.

Sportradar expands iGaming strategy with Playradar launch
On the corporate front, Sportradar announced the launch of Playradar, a new brand dedicated to its iGaming vertical, signaling a strategic shift toward more integrated and immersive betting experiences.
The new offering is built around hybrid gaming concepts, combining real-time and historical sports data with live streaming and casino content.
Among the key features is a 24/7 live experience hub, where users can engage simultaneously with sports events and interactive gaming formats.
The initiative will be led by Edo Haitin, a seasoned executive with over two decades of experience in live gaming and product development.
The company plans to roll out Playradar starting in 2026, initially targeting regulated markets in the UK, North America and Latin America.
According to CEO Carsten Koerl, the move represents a natural evolution of the company’s capabilities, leveraging its existing infrastructure in data, streaming and user behavior analytics to enhance engagement and monetization across the player lifecycle.
Haitin also emphasized the strategic vision behind the launch, highlighting the ability to combine technology and content in line with evolving market demands, particularly as operators look for differentiated and immersive user experiences.
Importantly, Playradar will operate exclusively in regulated environments, maintaining a strong focus on responsible gaming and integrity, aligning with broader industry and regulatory trends.
Playson strengthens Brazilian footprint through Betnacional partnership
Further reinforcing Brazil’s position as a high-growth market, Playson expanded its regional presence through a new partnership with Betnacional, a leading local operator owned by Flutter Entertainment.
The agreement will see a portfolio of Playson’s top-performing titles integrated into Betnacional’s platform, including 4 Pots Riches, Diamonds Power, and Sugar Teddy x1000, all recognized for their strong performance in regulated markets and engaging gameplay mechanics such as Hold and Win.
The partnership reflects a broader industry trend toward localization and mobile-first strategies, as operators seek to better align content with regional player preferences.
Cristhian Zito, Head of LatAm at Playson, highlighted the strategic importance of the deal:
“Partnering with Betnacional is an important milestone for us in Brazil. It is a highly respected local brand with a deep understanding of its audience, and we are confident our content will resonate strongly with its players.
This launch further strengthens our position in the market and reflects our commitment to delivering engaging, high-performing games to operators across Latin America.”
From the operator’s perspective, Frederico Cunha, Head of Commercial at Betnacional, also emphasized the value of the collaboration:
“We are delighted to welcome Playson’s portfolio to Betnacional. Their games are recognised for their quality, strong mechanics, and consistent performance, making them a valuable addition to our offering.
We look forward to working closely together and bringing an enhanced entertainment experience to our players.”
A market balancing integrity and growth
Taken together, this week’s developments illustrate a clear dual trajectory in Brazil’s betting sector: strengthening institutional and integrity frameworks while simultaneously attracting investment, innovation and international partnerships.
As regulatory structures become more sophisticated and collaboration between stakeholders deepens, Brazil is positioning itself not only as a compliant and secure market, but also as a central hub for growth in Latin America’s gaming industry.

Brasil impulsa su agenda de integridad en un contexto de fuerte crecimiento del mercado
El mercado regulado de apuestas en Brasil continúa ganando estructura y dinamismo, a medida que el país equilibra la consolidación regulatoria, las salvaguardas de integridad y el crecimiento comercial.
Durante la última semana, desarrollos clave, desde la implementación de políticas federales hasta asociaciones estratégicas e innovación de productos, ponen de relieve cómo el ecosistema está madurando de cara a grandes eventos deportivos globales.
El Gobierno lanza una política nacional para combatir la manipulación de partidos
Un hito regulatorio importante se alcanzó con la creación de la Política Nacional para la Prevención y el Combate de la Manipulación Deportiva (PNPEMR). Establecida mediante una ordenanza conjunta de los Ministerios de Deportes, Hacienda y Justicia, la política introduce un marco nacional integral diseñado para abordar los riesgos de integridad en el deporte.
La iniciativa se estructura en torno a cuatro pilares centrales: regulación, prevención, monitoreo y fiscalización, con el objetivo de proteger la credibilidad y la imprevisibilidad de las competiciones deportivas en Brasil.
La política enfatiza la cooperación interinstitucional, reuniendo a autoridades públicas, organizaciones deportivas, operadores de apuestas y organismos internacionales. Entre sus principales medidas se incluyen:
- Estandarización de los flujos de reporte de actividades de apuestas sospechosas
• Programas de educación continua para atletas, árbitros y oficiales deportivos
• Mecanismos de protección para denunciantes
• Refuerzo de las investigaciones penales dirigidas a redes organizadas de manipulación de partidos
En el marco de esta política, el Ministerio de Deportes coordinará la implementación, mientras que el Ministerio de Hacienda supervisará la regulación de las apuestas y el cumplimiento por parte de los operadores.
El Ministerio de Justicia y Seguridad Pública, junto con la Policía Federal, liderará los esfuerzos de intercambio de inteligencia y aplicación de la ley, especialmente en casos con alcance interestatal o internacional. Vea-se DOU.
Un comité de gobernanza con múltiples actores será responsable de monitorear los avances y proponer ajustes, garantizando que la política evolucione junto con el mercado.
Este movimiento refuerza la intención de Brasil de alinear su supervisión regulatoria con los estándares globales de integridad, especialmente relevante a medida que el país se prepara para escenarios de alto volumen de apuestas durante competiciones internacionales de gran escala.

La iniciativa estará liderada por Edo Haitin, un ejecutivo con más de dos décadas de experiencia en gaming en vivo y desarrollo de productos.

La compañía planea lanzar Playradar a partir de 2026, inicialmente en mercados regulados del Reino Unido, América del Norte y América Latina.
Según el CEO Carsten Koerl, este movimiento representa una evolución natural de las capacidades de la empresa, aprovechando su infraestructura existente en datos, streaming y análisis del comportamiento de los usuarios para mejorar el engagement y la monetización a lo largo del ciclo de vida del jugador.
Haitin también destacó la visión estratégica detrás del lanzamiento, subrayando la capacidad de combinar tecnología y contenido en línea con las demandas cambiantes del mercado, especialmente a medida que los operadores buscan experiencias de usuario diferenciadas e inmersivas.
Es importante destacar que Playradar operará exclusivamente en entornos regulados, manteniendo un fuerte enfoque en el juego responsable y la integridad, en línea con las tendencias más amplias del sector y la regulación.
Playson refuerza su presencia en Brasil mediante una asociación con Betnacional
Reforzando aún más la posición de Brasil como un mercado de alto crecimiento, Playson amplió su presencia regional a través de una nueva asociación con Betnacional, un operador local líder propiedad de Flutter Entertainment.
El acuerdo permitirá la integración de un portafolio de títulos destacados de Playson en la plataforma de Betnacional, incluyendo 4 Pots Riches, Diamonds Power y Sugar Teddy x1000, todos reconocidos por su sólido rendimiento en mercados regulados y mecánicas de juego atractivas como Hold and Win.
La asociación refleja una tendencia más amplia de la industria hacia la localización y estrategias mobile-first, a medida que los operadores buscan alinear mejor su contenido con las preferencias de los jugadores regionales.
Cristhian Zito, Head de LatAm en Playson, destacó la importancia estratégica del acuerdo:
“Associarnos con Betnacional es un hito importante para nosotros en Brasil. Es una marca local muy respetada con un profundo conocimiento de su audiencia, y estamos seguros de que nuestro contenido resonará fuertemente con sus jugadores.
“ Este lanzamiento refuerza aún más nuestra posición en el mercado y refleja nuestro compromiso de ofrecer juegos atractivos y de alto rendimiento a operadores en toda América Latina”.

Un mercado que equilibra integridad y crecimiento
En conjunto, los desarrollos de esta semana ilustran una clara doble trayectoria en el sector de apuestas en Brasil: el fortalecimiento de los marcos institucionales y de integridad, al mismo tiempo que se atraen inversión, innovación y asociaciones internacionales.
A medida que las estructuras regulatorias se vuelven más sofisticadas y se profundiza la colaboración entre los actores del ecosistema, Brasil se posiciona no solo como un mercado conforme y seguro, sino también como un hub central de crecimiento para la industria del gaming en América Latina.
