7Games selects FIRST.bet to bring Tier-1 sportsbook technology to one of the biggest casino operators in Brazil.

7Games, Betão and R7, three brands operated by OIG Gaming Brazil Ltda. and among Brazil’s largest casino-led betting brands, have gone live with a full sportsbook powered by Tier-1 technology from FIRST.bet.

Already among Brazil’s biggest casino operators, OIG chose FIRST.bet to power the move into sports across all three brands, proving the engine reaches Brazil-scale operators running multiple brands at once.

7Games built its own sportsbook front end on SportOS, the FIRST.bet operating system, with the FIRST.bet engine running underneath. Players see a sportsbook that is entirely 7Games, its brand, its design, its experience, while the trading, pricing, live markets and performance come from FIRST.bet.

7Games is a casino-led brand moving into sports, so it needed a sportsbook that already fits Brazil, not one it would have to adapt. FIRST.bet ships that out of the box: a Brazilian-Portuguese product, odds models tuned to the Brazilian leagues, and the live betting, trading and risk management needed to compete at national scale.

“Brazil is not a market you can grow into slowly. The product has to work from day one,” said Fernando Oliveira Lima, Founder and CEO of 7Games. “FIRST.bet gave us a sportsbook that already fits this market, so we could focus on our players instead of fixing the technology underneath them.”

“Brazil rewards operators who get the product right and punishes the ones who don’t,” said Tom Light, Founder and CEO of FIRST.bet. “7Games already commands serious traffic on the casino side. Now they have a sportsbook built to hold up under that kind of pressure, on their own front-end, running on our engine. That is exactly what SportOS was built for.”

FIRST.bet introduces UltraCup: a single destination that keeps players engaged across the entire World Cup – live group standings, knockout brackets, tournament Outrights, Blind Bets on matchups before they’re even drawn, and automatic Bet Builder boosts in the slip. Everything fans need to follow and bet the tournament in one place, from the first whistle to the last.

FIRST.bet, the Tier 1 sportsbook technology provider, today launched UltraCup, a World Cup-focused sportsbook engine built to help operators own the biggest betting event in football.

The next World Cup is not a short tournament spike. It is 48 teams, 104 matches and one continuous peak with no recovery window. UltraCup is built for that reality, giving operators a complete tournament destination that keeps players engaged from the opening group match through to the final.

UltraCup connects the full World Cup betting journey in one place: live group standings, tournament-context match listings, bracket navigation from R32 to the final, dynamic outrights, Blind Bets on future matchups and automatic Bet Builder boosts inside the bet slip.

Tom Light, Founder and CEO of FIRST.bet, said:
“The World Cup is the one moment when every football fan is watching, betting and hunting for somewhere to follow it all – and most sportsbooks lose that player to a dozen rival apps. UltraCup keeps the entire tournament in one place: live standings, knockout brackets, Outrights, automatic boosts and Blind Bets on matchups that haven’t even been drawn yet. Operators capture that attention from the opening whistle and hold it all the way to the final.”

At the heart of UltraCup is a dedicated World Cup hub that mirrors how fans follow the competition. Players can track group tables, move through the knockout bracket, bet on tournament-wide markets such as Champion and Top Scorer, and engage with odds that shift dynamically as the tournament unfolds.

The product also introduces Blind Bets, allowing players to bet on future World Cup matches before the final matchup is confirmed. This turns tournament progression into the betting mechanic itself, creating suspense and repeat engagement across every stage.

UltraCup also includes Auto Boost Builder, which applies automatic odds boosts to qualifying Bet Builders directly inside the bet slip. Operators can configure boosts by sport, tournament, or league, and customer segment, with instant enable or disable controls and boost tiers of any percentage desired.

UltraCup also introduces the Welcome Bonus Boost, a new feature that allows operators to create boosted odds promotions exclusively for new customers who have not yet placed a bet. The mechanic targets the critical first-bet moment, giving operators a targeted tool to convert new registrations into active players during the tournament.

While UltraCup is being launched with a clear World Cup focus, the framework is built to live beyond one tournament. FIRST will extend the same journey into major league and tournament formats across football and other sports, giving operators a reusable engagement engine for the biggest moments on the calendar.
