It’s been launched by successful international company, OGaming whose CEO Thomas Golding, said: “As a market Brazil has huge potential.

“BetGold is a user-friendly platform built on state-of-the-art technology to meet the specific needs of the market. It ensures players will find the software and payment processes easy to use – and most importantly, it is exciting and fun.

“We are pleased to say Brazilian teams Santo André and Bovista, from Rio de Janeiro, now have our logo proudly emblazoned on their shirts, promoting BetGold and showing our true commitment to grassroots sports in Brazil,” said Thomas.

Grupo EGB projeta aumento de 45% no volume de atendimentos durante a Copa do Mundo
Para absorver pico de demanda, companhia amplia operação interna em 55% e reforça áreas de risco, suporte e monitoramento preventivo
A proximidade da Copa do Mundo levou o Grupo EGB, responsável pelas marcas Esportes da Sorte, Onabet e Lottu, a preparar sua maior estrutura operacional desde o início da regulamentação do setor no Brasil. A companhia projeta um aumento de 45% no volume de interações durante o torneio, com expectativa de salto de 230 mil para 335 mil contatos mensais em canais de atendimento como chat, e-mail e voz.
Para absorver esse crescimento, o grupo ampliou em mais de 55% seu quadro total de colaboradores ao longo dos últimos doze meses, passando de 378 funcionários, em junho de 2025, para 586 profissionais em junho de 2026. As contratações foram concentradas principalmente nos polos de Recife (PE) e São Paulo (SP), com foco nas áreas de atendimento, tecnologia, risco e jogo responsável.
Duas áreas estratégicas concentraram metade das admissões realizadas no período: Atendimento, com 97 novos profissionais, e Risco e Jogo Responsável, que recebeu 60 novos especialistas para reforçar o monitoramento preventivo e a capacidade de resposta durante o Mundial.
“A preparação operacional para a Copa envolve não apenas ganho de escala, mas principalmente reforço da qualidade e da segurança da experiência do usuário. Nosso foco é garantir uma estrutura preparada para responder com agilidade e responsabilidade em um período de aumento expressivo da demanda”, afirma Roberta Cinti, Head de Pessoas e Cultura do Grupo EGB.
Além do reforço nas equipes, o Grupo EGB promoveu ajustes na jornada digital de autoatendimento e nas Unidades de Resposta Audível (URA), buscando reduzir fricções operacionais e otimizar o fluxo de demandas estritamente informativas, como dúvidas sobre regulamentos e termos promocionais. A estratégia visa liberar os analistas humanos para interações complexas e que exijam maior sensibilidade analítica.
A estratégia também inclui a ampliação do uso de ferramentas de inteligência artificial voltadas ao monitoramento preventivo de comportamento. Historicamente, os atendimentos relacionados à área de risco e jogo responsável representam cerca de 5% do volume total mensal de contatos da companhia (cerca de 11.500 atendimentos).
Os sistemas utilizados pela empresa analisam indicadores considerados atípicos em tempo real, como tempo excessivo de sessão contínua, frequência elevada de navegação e movimentações financeiras fora do padrão habitual, permitindo que as equipes especializadas realizem avaliações preventivas quando necessário.
O uso de tecnologia aplicada ao monitoramento e à prevenção funciona como uma camada preditiva de proteção ao usuário, fortalecendo a capacidade operacional do Grupo EGB em períodos de alta movimentação. A combinação entre inteligência artificial, acompanhamento especializado e suporte humano são pilares importantes da construção de uma experiência mais segura e sustentável para o usuário.
A movimentação faz parte do planejamento operacional do Grupo EGB para o período da Copa, combinando expansão de estrutura, investimentos em tecnologia e reforço das áreas ligadas à experiência do usuário para garantir que a experiência do Mundial permaneça estritamente no campo do lazer e da aposta segura.
