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!”

OKTO Expands Payment Capabilities in Mexico with Direct Card Deposits
OKTO, the next-gen Payment Service Provider, has officially launched its direct card in solution in Mexico, marking another milestone in its mission to deliver orchestrated payment experiences across Latin America. The new service is seamlessly connected to Mexico’s local payment rails, enabling real-time card deposits that are fully aligned with the country’s financial infrastructure.
This launch forms part of OKTO’s Orchestrated Pay-ins and Payouts strategy, designed to simplify and optimize every stage of the payment journey for merchants and users. With card payments representing more than 25% of Mexico’s iGaming audience, the solution provides operators with direct access to a major segment of players who rely on the convenience, familiarity, and trust of card-based deposits.
By integrating directly with licensed local acquirers, OKTO removes unnecessary intermediaries, giving merchants greater control over their payment flows, more competitive pricing structures, and strengthened fraud management. This direct connection results in faster processing times, higher approval rates, and a smoother experience that meets the expectations of both operators and players in a rapidly expanding market.
Momentum is already building, with five merchants preparing to go live on the platform. This early adoption highlights the strong demand for localized, compliant, and frictionless payment solutions within Mexico’s iGaming ecosystem. The card in service complements the existing SPEI in and out local payment options available through the OKTO platform, further enhancing the breadth of payment capabilities for merchants in the region.
Following the successful rollout of real-time account-to-account payments in Peru last month, OKTO continues to expand its footprint across Latin America with solutions tailored to each market’s regulatory and consumer landscape. The launch in Mexico reinforces OKTO’s commitment to empowering merchants with payment services that drive conversion, efficiency, and sustainable growth.
“Mexico represents a key market in OKTO’s Latin American expansion strategy. Our direct card-in solution directly addresses the needs of a significant portion of iGaming users who continue to prefer card payments, combining this familiarity with the speed, reliability, and control of OKTO’s payment gateway. By integrating with Mexico’s local acquiring network, we help merchants reduce costs, increase approval rates, and deliver the fast, seamless deposit experience that players expect from trusted, high-performing brands,” said Thomas Georgopoulos, COO at OKTO.

Atucha Strategic Advisory
LatAm industry pioneer Ramiro Atucha launches Atucha Strategic Advisory
Recognised entrepreneur and industry leader Ramiro Atucha has officially launched Atucha Strategic Advisory, a consultancy focused on providing strategic insight and business development support to a hand-picked portfolio of companies in the global gaming and technology sectors.
Atucha Strategic Advisory opens a new chapter in Atucha’s distinguished 20-year iGaming career, during which he was instrumental in shaping notable brands such as Leander Games and, most recently, Vibra Gaming, where he served as CEO until earlier this year. Before moving into the gaming space, Atucha was CEO of Ixone Studios, a software and digital identity firm based in Argentina, providing services to the U.S. market.
The advisory will initially focus on the LatAm market, but will not be limited to this region in the future. Atucha will closely collaborate with founders and leadership teams where his experience can deliver value across areas such as strategic alignment, market entry, corporate structure, and product positioning.
“Over the years, I’ve become increasingly passionate about those strategic conversations that define a company’s direction,” said Atucha. “Whether it’s expanding into new markets, refining corporate structures, or ensuring the right people are in the right roles – these are the challenges that create long-term success. My goal is to share the experience that only time in the field can bring with a select few businesses that inspire me and where I can truly make a difference. The lessons learned, the perspective earned, and a deep respect for what it takes to build something that lasts are at the heart of my advisory.”
Atucha is a unique executive that has successfully operated on both sides of the global market – leading regulated ventures in Europe and the U.S. with Leander Games, and in Latin America with Vibra Gaming.
Later this month, Atucha will announce the first companies joining his advisory portfolio and reveal more details about the partnerships inspiring this new phase.
