The U.S. subsidiary of Gambling.com Group Plc, KAX Media America Inc, has completed the application process and has been approved by the Colorado Limited Gaming Control Commission to provide marketing services to licensed gaming operators in the state.

“As more states move to legalize sports betting, we will be there in each state to ensure bettors are aware of the differences between locally regulated and offshore options,” said Charles Gillespie, Chief Executive of Gambling.com Group. “Whether you’re a Broncos, Rockies, Avalanche or Nuggets fan, our team of journalists, analysts and handicappers will give Colorado sports fans the best chance to beat the sportsbooks in what will surely be one of the most exciting sports betting markets in America.”

With four major professional sports teams, 33 land-based casinos and more than 5 million residents, the foundation is in place for Colorado to become a leader in the regulated American market.

Max Bichsel, VP, US Business at Gambling.com Group adds, “Colorado has the opportunity to be a gold standard for other states looking to establish a legal, regulated sports betting market in 2020 and beyond. With broad support for mobile betting, a reasonable tax rate of 10%, and an open, free-market approach, sports betting companies will bring the best sports betting products and experiences to Colorado.”

Since the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA) was overturned in May of 2018, Gambling.com Group has been granted regulatory approval to offer its services to operators in Indiana, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Colorado became just the second state to legalize sports betting by ballot measure – after Arkansas – when Proposition DD was approved by voters in November.

Canada continues to represent a key growth region for us, and we’re excited to bring our expanding portfolio of games and unique mechanics to operators and players in Alberta.”

IBJR: Crackdown on Illegal Betting Critical to Success of Desenrola 2.0

The Brazilian Institute for Responsible Gaming (IBJR) has warned that the effectiveness of the financial protection measures included in Desenrola 2.0 fundamentally depends on a strict crackdown on the illegal betting market.

In 2025, bets placed on licensed platforms accounted for only 0.46% of household consumption in the country — an extremely small share of the average Brazilian family budget — according to data from a study conducted by LCA Consultoria. This reinforces that the main driver of household indebtedness in Brazil continues to be the high cost of credit.

The IBJR emphasized that restricting access to the regulated sector may encourage users to migrate to illegal platforms, which already handle around R$40 billion per year and operate without any oversight or consumer protection mechanisms.

Combating the illegal market is the most urgent step to prevent unlicensed operators — often linked to organized crime — from taking advantage of restriction windows to attract vulnerable consumers. This concern is heightened by the proximity of the FIFA World Cup, a period that naturally increases the volume of sports betting activity, as well as by the potential loss of R$10.8 billion in tax revenue if consumption shifts to the underground market.

IBJR reiterates that real consumer protection and the integrity of Desenrola 2.0 depend on coordinated action between the government and the private sector. The organization advocates for public policies that combine financial education, the strengthening of responsible gaming practices, and a strategic offensive against illegal websites, ensuring that entertainment takes place exclusively within a safe, transparent, and properly regulated ecosystem.
