FairPlay Sports Media launches in Brazil with localized oddschecker brand

FairPlay Sports Media, the global sports media network fuelled by data and powered by fans, has launched in the Brazilian market with a localized version of its renowned odds comparison brand oddschecker.
Following ongoing success in the LATAM region, where the brand ranks as a top three traffic driver for sportsbooks in Mexico, Chile, Colombia, and Peru, Brazilian sports bettors will now be able to access localized, real-time odds grids at oddschecker.com/br, repurposed with market-specific APIs to ensure a seamless odds comparison experience.
The decision to launch in Brazil follows the recent regulation of sports betting, with FairPlay’s business and product strategy best-suited to legal markets where consumers are protected and sportsbooks operate in-line with generally agreed best practices.
FairPlay and its oddschecker brand have invested heavily in the region as of late, and this new launch also sees a number of new hires on the ground in Brazil to best operationalize the brand to become local sports betting experts, as well as delivering more effective operator partnerships.
Stuart Simms, Group CEO at FairPlay Sports Media, said: “The Brazil market has huge potential, arguably similar to the US in its scale, and this is an ideal time to service the sports mad fans of the country with a quality, fully localised odds comparison service that will empower them with the insight and pricing edge to take on their favoured sportsbooks.
“We are fully behind recent steps to regulate. We want to play by the rules, execute best practices and demonstrate values that we’ve learned from other maturing markets to bring about a better betting ecosystem for all.”
Richard Gale, Chief Revenue Officer at FairPlay Sports Media, said: “The Brazilian market is both challenging and hugely rewarding. With so many local and multi-national operators, our industry leading technology will provide consumers with true comparisons and a fairer betting space. With regulation coming in, now is the time for our brands, global expertise and multi-national media partnerships to properly enter the market.”
Oddschecker’s Brazilian site will offer sports bettors the same, market-leading experience that users receive in other markets, with an added focus on sports relevant to the country, including soccer and U.S. sports.
2025 Paulistão Feminino
7K Named Official Betting Sponsor of Paulistão Feminino 2025

The 2025 Paulistão Feminino, Brazil’s premier state-level women’s football championship, kicked off this Tuesday, May 6, and brings with it a historic partnership: 7K, a brand under the Ana Gaming Group, has joined as the exclusive betting sponsor of the tournament.
This move further reinforces 7K’s growing presence in national football, as it also sponsors Santos FC’s women’s team, positioning itself as a strong backer of women’s sports in Brazil.
“We believe in the transformative power of sport and its societal impact,” said Talita Lacerda, Chief Operating Officer at Ana Gaming Group. “Supporting Paulistão Feminino at this pivotal time of growth and visibility reflects our commitment to gender equity and diversity. Women’s football is finally gaining the space it deserves, and 7K is proud to contribute to this important journey alongside such prominent brands.”
Record-Breaking Investment and Visibility in 2025
This year’s edition sees a record investment, surpassing the R$8 million of 2024. The total club distribution increases to R$3.3 million, with the champions receiving R$840,000 and runners-up awarded R$350,000 in prize money.
The competition features eight powerhouse teams:
-
AD Taubaté
-
Corinthians
-
Ferroviária
-
Palmeiras
-
Realidade Jovem
-
Red Bull Bragantino
-
Santos
-
São Paulo
Broadcast and Media Coverage
For the first time, all matches of the Paulistão Feminino will be televised or streamed. The tournament will be broadcast by SporTV, TV Globo, Record News, Warner (via Max and Space), as well as digital channels like CazéTV and the official Paulistão YouTube channel, expanding the reach of women’s football like never before.
A New Era of Sponsorships
The 2025 edition also breaks the record for number of sponsors, with seven brands backing the competition—up from five in 2024. In addition to 7K and Sicredi (which holds the naming rights), sponsors include Amazon, Assaí, Centauro, Guaraná Antarctica, and Lays.
Previously, 7K gained major visibility during the 2025 Campeonato Paulista (men’s) by sponsoring the tournament and securing the naming rights for the “Man of the Match” trophy, further showcasing its dedication to Brazilian football at all levels.

LuckBet Launches New TV Commercial Starring Caio Castro on Sportv and Globoplay

The Brazilian sports betting brand doubles down on its national presence with a humorous new campaign spotlighting customer benefits, responsible gaming, and celebrity appeal.
One of Brazil’s rising names in the online betting industry, LuckBet, has launched a new nationwide advertising campaign featuring acclaimed actor and motorsport enthusiast Caio Castro. The commercial, which blends humor with strategic brand messaging, is now airing on Globoplay and will debut on Sportv.
The witty commercial stars Caio Castro in a creative split-role talk show, where he plays both the host and the guest. While only one version of him gets to talk (the host, of course), the dialogue cleverly introduces LuckBet’s key strengths—focusing on entertainment, trust, and unique player benefits.
“Caio Castro communicates our message with natural charisma and humor, while staying aligned with our brand’s core values: entertainment, simplicity, and responsibility,” said Ivan Dutra, CEO of LuckBet. “This new commercial is fast-paced, engaging, and truly represents who we are as a company.”
LuckBet: A Responsible and Player-First Betting Platform
As the only betting operator from Mato Grosso officially listed by Brazil’s Ministry of Finance, LuckBet offers a wide range of player-centric features. These include:
-
Unlimited withdrawals
-
24/7 humanized customer support
-
Weekly cashback on losses
LuckBet’s informal, street-smart communication style—rich in slang and expressions familiar to younger audiences—helps it stand out in Brazil’s crowded iGaming market. This distinctive approach is designed to foster a more authentic connection with bettors across all touchpoints.
Celebrity-Driven Brand With Social Impact
Since its founding in 2021, LuckBet, headquartered in Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, has rapidly grown its reputation through high-profile partnerships and sponsorships, including support for Cuiabá EC football club. Alongside Caio Castro, the brand also works with rapper PKFreestyle and sports journalist Isa Pagliari to broaden its appeal.
Importantly, LuckBet is a strong advocate for Responsible Gaming, offering tools such as self-exclusion, reality checks, and integrations with international support organizations like Gambling Therapy and GambleAware. The company adheres strictly to Brazil’s 2025 gambling regulations, operating transparently under newly defined federal guidelines.
