Brazilian Ministry of Sports and IBIA sign sports betting integrity agreement
The Brazilian Ministry of Sports and the International Betting Integrity Association (IBIA) have signed a sports betting integrity cooperation agreement. This partnership will enable the sharing of information concerning suspicious betting activity connected to Brazilian sports and support collaboration on integrity-related investigations.
The agreement brings together the governmental body tasked with safeguarding the integrity and development of Brazilian sport, and the largest international betting integrity monitor for private operators in the world. Leading industry data and intelligence company H2 Gambling Capital has forecast that IBIA covers more than 70% of Brazil’s licensed remote gambling market.
According to ‘The Availability of Sports Betting Products: An Economic and Integrity Analysis’ study published last year, the sports betting regulatory regime in Brazil is projected to create $34bn (R$191.7bn) in sports betting turnover by 2028. With this increased growth comes a greater responsibility to protect customers, sports and betting operators from match-fixing.
A key element of the new Brazilian regulatory framework is the requirement that operators seeking a licence must join an independent sports integrity monitoring body. This licensing requirement is helping to strengthen IBIA’s capacity to monitor, assess and protect betting transactions in Brazil’s regulated sports betting market and maintain the integrity of Brazilian sporting events.
Minister of Sport, André Fufuca, said: “Today we are signing a milestone in the fight against match-fixing in Brazilian sport. Integrity must be a constant principle when it comes to transparency, ethics and, above all, the correctness of sports results. With these agreements, we will have more than enough instruments to curb this practice and guarantee greater transparency in competitions. Thus, athletes, clubs, organizations, fans and the entire population will be able to fully trust in the fairness of the results and, with this, will have peace of mind to develop the full potential of Brazilian sport.”
Khalid Ali, IBIA CEO, said: “IBIA welcomes this important partnership with the Brazilian Ministry of Sports. As the market grows, so too does the responsibility to ensure that robust integrity safeguards are in place. This agreement will ensure that information on suspicious betting is swiftly shared with the Ministry to support effective integrity actions. This includes access to detailed, account-level data available only through IBIA’s unique network.”
IBIA is a globally recognised non-profit organization that seeks to safeguard the integrity of the sports and betting sectors by fighting betting related match-fixing and fraud. It provides a free integrity monitoring service to sports governing bodies, regulatory authorities, government ministries, and law enforcement agencies that, importantly, has no potential conflicts created by the provision of competing commercial services, enabling all parties to efficiently and effectively cooperate in investigating, prosecuting and deterring sports betting related match-fixing.
IBIA monitors over $300bn per annum in betting turnover across more than 140 sports betting brands globally, making IBIA the largest betting integrity monitor of its type for private operators in the world. The association’s unrivalled access to detailed global customer transactional data has, and will continue, to play a pivotal role in protecting the Brazilian sports betting market and sporting events from corrupt activity. IBIA recently released its global alert data for the first quarter of 2025, detailing that 63 cases of suspicious betting were reported to the relevant authorities.

Esportes da Sorte launches “Summon the Fun” for Carnival 2026
Leading Brazilian iGaming company Esportes da Sorte has launched its national Carnival 2026 campaign, built around the messaging “There’s no doubt you’ll have fun” and the tagline “Summon the Fun.”
The campaign, which runs throughout February, employs a multi-platform strategy, with a presence on broadcast TV, radio, digital media and out-of-home (OOH) advertising. The objective is to expand reach and reinforce brand awareness during one of the most culturally significant periods in Brazil.
Beyond institutional positioning, the campaign organically integrates product communication into the creative narrative, connecting the platform to the Carnival experience lived both in the streets and through media content.
“Carnival is a central part of Brazilian culture and one of the most powerful expressions of our diversity. More than just talking about fun, Esportes da Sorte positions itself as an investor in popular culture, plurality and the experiences that make Carnival happen on the streets. We go beyond the platform: we seek to deliver an experience for the customer and contribute to the reveller’s experience, connecting brand, culture and entertainment in a genuine way,” says Marcela Campos, vice president of the Esportes Gaming Brasil Group.
The campaign is the result of a co-creation process directly involving the group’s marketing team, with creative development by the Brenda agency and media strategy conducted by the Avesso agency, both based in Recife. The concept uses Carnival as a territory of identity, encounter, and tradition to support the narrative of a brand that is strengthening itself in the field of popular entertainment, expanding its connection with different audiences and cultural expressions.
“The Esportes da Sorte campaign dives headfirst into this celebration where everything blends together: reality and fantasy, people from all corners of the world, colors, music, and endless movement. The proprietary illustrations reinforce the diversity of Brazil, its people, and the cities where Esportes da Sorte is present, creating a vibrant, popular, and unique identity within the segment,” explains Raphael Pinteiro, partner at Brenda.
The media plan prioritizes historically central Carnival destinations such as Recife, Olinda, and Salvador, while also including strategic insertions in markets like São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, as well as capitals including Natal, Maceió, and Belo Horizonte. The combination of mass media and street-level formats increases presence and frequency throughout the Carnival period, reinforcing the brand’s connection with the festival and with Brazilian popular culture.
