1xBet lines up ‘phenomenal’ offering for Mexico following official license approval
Setting the stage for its wide-ranging and ambitious goals across Latin America, 1xBet has proudly received a full license from the Games & Lotteries Office of the Mexican Ministry of the Interior. As the company details ‘huge plans’ for the market and a strong focus on raising the status of the Mexican gaming industry, it’s clear 1xBet is serious about becoming the number one bookmaker in one of LatAm’s largest gaming markets…
The award winning online sports betting odds provider, 1xBet, has confirmed it will be driving a comprehensive expansion program in Mexico following approval to conduct operations in the country for the foreseeable future. The company will be focussing primarily on eSports, online and sports betting, thanks to its wide line of 70+ sports catering to all players, whilst also using its experience to drive the Mexican industry forward as a whole.
“We are proud to say that this is a very big step that demonstrates our ambitious goals in the Latin American market,” explained the 1xBet team after the license was agreed. “We have several successful projects implemented in Latin America, but entering the Mexican market opens up even more prospects for us. This is one of the largest countries in Latin America, which is actively developing in all sectors. Getting started there is a success for any company, even the top brands.”
As one of the world’s most recognised brands in sports betting, 1xBet believes its experience gained in other markets stands them in good stead and the company claims it will utilise ‘tried and tested methods’ to ensure customer satisfaction of the highest level as well as a series of special offers for players across the country.
“It is not everyday that one enters such a large market,” said 1xBet’s team. “Therefore we are giving particular priority to broadening our name in this emerging market whilst maintaining our brand. We can promise that in the near future you will discover a great deal about the activities of 1xBet in Mexico. But for now, we can assure future players of this – we have a lot of phenomenal things lined up for you.”
Following the approval of its Mexican gaming license, 1xBet has conducted focused R&D into which sectors take centre stage in the country’s industry. The company has highlighted it will promote a high number of offers on football and boxing – the two main sports in Mexico – as well as catering to all other players with its more than 70 sports offerings. In addition to sports betting, 1xBet will also tap into the increase in the popularity of eSports in Mexico, as well as presenting other special betting options across the region.
“Mexico is a vibrant nation of sports enthusiasts,” said 1xBet’s team. “The love of sports and victories is evident in the manner in which the public ardently supports local athletes and teams from the bottom of their hearts. Mexico is one of the centres of the emerging LatAm industry and we are pleased to start work here and support the passion of the Mexican people with our quality product. We have huge plans which were formulated after conducting a detailed examination before entering the market and we guarantee 1xBet will do everything to raise the status of Mexico in the gaming industry to an even higher level.”
1xBet has stated its first priority is to become the number one bookmaker for Mexican players and with its new license not being limited to only online activities, the company is also hard at work establishing a physical presence in the country.
“The 1xBet team adheres to its philosophy and believes that there is no universal path to success,” the team added. “Our betting company is firmly established in several dozen countries, and each experience was unique. Each market has its own specifics of work, and for us, each is an invaluable experience. Of course, we will use all our knowledge to develop the brand in Mexico, but at the same time, we will prepare something new and innovative for this region. This is the only way to win consumer loyalty and earn a positive reputation. Whether online or land-based we will be available to everyone, because our site and application are already available for Mexican users.”
Alongside Brazil, Mexico is one of the key gaming markets in Latin America in terms of revenue and serves as a barometer for the future of the industry in the region. With 1xBet’s new license, the company is keen to establish new partnerships, ambassadors and sponsorships, not just to help grow the brand’s footprint in the region, but more importantly, to raise the profile of the Mexican industry and drive the country’s market forward at this crucial time.
1xBet’s team concluded: “Mexico and Brazil are both important markets for us at this time and with our latest license we look forward to strengthening our position in Mexico as one of our main areas of focus in Latin America. Of course, when you start working in a new market, this opens up opportunities for new partnerships and sponsorships. In Mexico, there are a lot of media people, star athletes and strong teams. We are already considering sponsorship ideas with top figures in the Mexican market so stay tuned for more news coming soon!”

Expandirse en LatAm: el costo oculto que enfrenta la industria del iGaming
Gestionar fondos en múltiples mercados: el cuello de botella oculto que frena el crecimiento del iGaming en América Latina
Argentina, 13 de julio de 2026 – Escalar un negocio de iGaming en América Latina implica gestionar infraestructuras de pago paralelas, fondos de liquidez separados y procesos de conciliación desconectados en cada país. Para los operadores que buscan expandirse a nivel regional, esta fragmentación se ha convertido en un costo tangible: consume tiempo, inmoviliza capital, reduce los márgenes a medida que el negocio crece y aumenta la complejidad operativa con cada nuevo mercado.
Brasil marcó el ritmo con ingresos por 37.000 millones de reales en 2025, el primer año completo del mercado bajo un marco regulatorio, según datos de la Secretaría de Premios y Apuestas (SPA). Argentina, Perú, México y Chile también continuaron atrayendo operadores con estrategias de expansión regional. Sin embargo, en la práctica, estas compañías siguen enfrentándose al mismo obstáculo: infraestructuras financieras que operan de manera aislada, con poca o ninguna interoperabilidad entre sí.
Cada mercado funciona sobre rieles de pago locales sin un equivalente directo en otros países. En Brasil, Pix, incluido Pix Biométrico, representa la gran mayoría de las transacciones, especialmente tras la prohibición del uso de tarjetas de crédito y boletos bancarios para las apuestas. En Argentina, las CVU y las transferencias instantáneas cuenta a cuenta (A2A) impulsan los depósitos y retiros; en México ese rol lo cumplen las transferencias SPEI A2A, mientras que en Colombia corresponde a BRE-B. En Chile, MACH se ha convertido en el método de pago preferido por una gran parte de los jugadores y, en Perú, ese lugar lo ocupa Yape. Ninguna de estas infraestructuras de pago se integra de forma nativa con las demás, lo que significa que un operador presente en todos estos mercados termina administrando una infraestructura financiera independiente en cada uno de ellos.
El impacto va mucho más allá del procesamiento de pagos. Cuando los fondos circulan a través de sistemas desconectados entre distintas jurisdicciones, cada una con sus propias normas fiscales y ciclos de liquidación, los operadores pierden visibilidad en tiempo real sobre su posición de caja. Como consecuencia, decisiones que deberían basarse en información precisa y actualizada terminan dependiendo de consolidaciones manuales y estimaciones.
“Vimos venir este escenario antes que el mercado. A medida que la regulación maduró en Brasil, Argentina, Perú, Colombia y el resto de la región, el mayor desafío para los operadores dejó silenciosamente de ser ‘¿podemos ingresar al mercado?’ para convertirse en ‘¿podemos controlar lo que ocurre dentro de nuestra operación?’. Las operaciones financieras fragmentadas son hoy uno de los principales obstáculos para una expansión regional rentable y el problema se agrava, no se reduce, cuanto más crece una empresa. Los ganadores no se definirán por su presencia geográfica, sino por su capacidad de tener visibilidad, control y una gestión integrada. Esa es la convicción sobre la que se construyó OKTO PAYMENTS: infraestructura de pagos local en cada mercado, con una única capa de control financiero por encima, conectada mediante una sola API para todo el continente”, afirmó Filippos Antonopoulos, fundador y CEO de OKTO PAYMENTS.
Para los proveedores de servicios de pago (PSP), dar soporte a operadores presentes en múltiples mercados requiere mucho más que conectividad con los métodos de pago locales. Exige combinar infraestructura local con una capa centralizada de gestión financiera que proporcione visibilidad en tiempo real sobre los fondos, la conciliación y la liquidez entre distintas jurisdicciones. El objetivo es administrar los pagos no como integraciones independientes por país, sino como un marco unificado de control financiero distribuido en múltiples mercados.
OKTO PAYMENTS fue diseñado precisamente para responder a ese desafío. Los operadores realizan una única integración y acceden a los métodos de pago locales que los jugadores esperan en cada mercado: Pix en Brasil, CVU y A2A en Argentina, MACH en Chile, Yape en Perú, entre otros. Sobre esa infraestructura funciona una única capa de tesorería y conciliación que consolida fondos, liquidez y liquidaciones en una vista unificada y en tiempo real, permitiendo que los equipos financieros dejen de conciliar mercado por mercado para gestionar una única posición regional.
Para los operadores que están planificando o acelerando su expansión regional, OKTO PAYMENTS ofrece una evaluación de su infraestructura financiera para identificar dónde la fragmentación está generando costos hoy, ya sea por capital inmovilizado, demoras en las liquidaciones o pérdida de visibilidad financiera. Para solicitar una evaluación, los interesados pueden contactar al equipo comercial de OKTO PAYMENTS.
