Esportes da Sorte champions Responsible Gaming with strong internal culture and compliance focus

Internal training and strong compliance are the foundation for protecting bettors and meeting new requirements under Brazil’s gambling regulations
Grupo Esportes Gaming Brasil, the company behind the Esportes da Sorte and Onabet platforms, is taking a proactive approach to player protection by embedding responsible gaming into its organisational DNA.
A strong internal culture focused on physical, emotional, and financial wellbeing, open dialogue around diversity, and hiring practices rooted in collaboration, customer focus, and ethics all lay the groundwork for an environment where protecting players is second nature.
In June, 600 employees took part in the immersive program “Learn to Protect.” Over three days of workshops led by the Instituto de Apoio ao Apostador (IAA) and the Empresa Brasileira de Apoio ao Compulsivo (EBAC), the team simulated real cases, learned to recognise signs of risk, and adopted international support protocols. The content has since become mandatory e-learning, with refreshers every six months.
The Brazilian betting market, which already moves over R$12 billion a year according to estimates from the Ministry of Finance, is undergoing its first full regulatory cycle. The new law requires each licensed operator to demonstrate preventive actions against gambling addiction, support channels, and self-exclusion mechanisms.
Grupo Esportes Gaming Brasil has further strengthened its Responsible Gaming commitment with the appointment of new manager Ana Carolina Luna Maçães. In addition, the group launched a Code of Ethics and Conduct outlining five core principles — integrity, respect for people, privacy, responsible gaming, and compliance — which apply to employees, suppliers, and partners.
Technology is crucial in supporting this layer of protection by identifying issues before they occur. Machine learning models monitor dozens of behavioural variables (bet value, frequency and time, session duration), and when risk is detected, they trigger conscious gambling alerts, offering instant deposit limits or self-exclusion options. Monthly reports are sent to the Compliance team for ongoing audit and review. High-risk alerts are individually handled by a support team trained in active listening to better engage with users.
Over the past two months, the group hosted the Match-Fixing Prevention Forum for clubs including Náutico, Ceará, and Corinthians, equipping athletes and coaching staff with training in sports integrity.
Hugo Baungartner, Director of Institutional Relations and Partnerships at Esportes Gaming Brasil, said: “Promoting responsible gaming internally is the first step toward bringing education, protection, and transparency to the market. When our team is prepared, we can share that knowledge outward and protect those who bet. With a strong culture, rigorous compliance, and continuous education, we aim to give increasing visibility to a culture of Responsible Gaming.”

Esportes da Sorte holds forum on “Integrity in Sports” with Ceará and Náutico

Esportes da Sorte hosted its Match-Fixing Prevention Forum last week at Ceará and Náutico as main sponsor of both clubs. Held in partnership with Sportradar, the initiative is part of a series of in-person workshops, with upcoming sessions planned for Corinthians and Ferroviária.
The project aims to combat illegal practices and reinforce a strong commitment to integrity in sport. Activities were tailored for athletes and members of the technical staff from the men’s and women’s professional teams, as well as the under-20 squads. During the sessions, topics such as the definition of match-fixing, types of fraud, fraudsters’ modus operandi, legal risks, and reputational impacts were covered. Participants were offered practical guidance on how to respond to suspicious approaches.
“This training programme reinforces our commitment to sports integrity and responsible gaming, pillars that guide our actions. We believe education is the best form of prevention, and we want to stand alongside clubs in this joint effort for transparency and the protection of sport,” said Ana Carolina Luna Maçães, Compliance Manager at Esportes Gaming Brasil, the group behind the Esportes da Sorte brand.
“Ceará takes this topic very seriously. The club is an important player in the fight against match-fixing. We act preventively with regular meetings and have a handbook that addresses the topic with our squad. It is our duty to provide these moments of learning for athletes and technical staff. We live in a time when the integrity of sport is being questioned. In this scenario, actions like this are extremely important,” commented Lucas Drubscky, Football Executive at Ceará.
The sessions were led by Felippe Marchetti, Integrity Partnerships Manager at Sportradar, a global sports technology company and recognized authority in sports integrity. In Brazil, Sportradar partners with the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) and 17 state federations, monitoring more than 10,000 matches per season. The company recently signed a Technical Cooperation Agreement (TCA) with the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Sports.
“Raising awareness among athletes and teams is one of the most effective ways to protect competitions from manipulation. These workshops are designed to equip participants with the knowledge and tools to recognize threats and act responsibly. We are proud to support initiatives like this that strengthen the integrity of Brazilian sports,” said Felippe Marchetti.

Esportes da Sorte celebrates Brazilian culture with Parintins and São João Sponsorships

Esportes Gaming Brasil, the owner of Onabet and Esportes da Sorte, is making its debut at the 58th Parintins Folklore Festival with an interactive project that blends cultural promotion, economic development, and social responsibility.
The brand becomes the first regulated betting operator to offer institutional support to the event, which welcomes around 120,000 visitors and generates BRL 184 million in local economic activity, according to the Amazonas State Government.
This cultural commitment comes on the back of Esportes Gaming Brasil sponsoring 31 São João festivals during June in 27 cities across the Northeast and Southeast regions. This initiative strengthens the brand’s strategy of connecting with the public through the appreciation of Brazilian cultural expressions.
Esportes da Sorte’s focus was creating memorable experiences as each event featured scenography by Pernambucan artist Perron Ramos. Another notable element was the Vila Junina (June Village), a themed area blending traditional elements with interactive experiences. Classic games such as Pescaria da Sorte (Fishing of Fortune), Barraca do Beijo (Kissing Booth), and Argola da Sorte (Ring Toss) bring nostalgia to the festivities.
For the three-day Parintins Folklore Festival starting today, the brand will be energising Parintins with a series of experiences celebrating local culture. These include a panoramic lounge with a special view of the Bumbódromo, the Truck da Sorte — a space combining karaoke and free hydration — as well as a Social Arena installed in the Garantido and Caprichoso neighborhoods, featuring artistic performances, rest areas, free water distribution, and Instagram-worthy spots. Festivalgoers will also be able to get their hands on custom giveaways throughout the festival. All elements of the visual project are inspired by Amazonian art. The graphics feature illustrations by Curumiz, a Parintins-based duo formed by Alziney Pereira and Kemerson Freitas.
Sofia Aldin, CMO of Esportes Gaming Brasil, the group behind the brand commented: “Esportes Gaming Brasil cares passionately about regional values and strengthening Brazilian popular culture. It’s more than simply showcasing our brand, we want to create value for the people who live for events like the Parintins Folklore Festival and the São João festivals. Being part of these events backs our strategy of supporting traditions that drive local economies and celebrate regional identities.”

The recognition – a global reference in people management and organizational climate – highlights the company’s efforts in promoting a positive environment, with development, well-being and inclusion initiatives aligned with the needs of its approximately 600 employees.
The GPTW survey assesses employee perceptions across five pillars – credibility, respect, impartiality, pride and camaraderie.

The certificate proves we are on the right path and motivates us to evolve further”, says the executive.
More than just a welcoming environment, Grupo Esportes Gaming Brasil has built a space where everyone has the freedom to be themselves, clarity about where they can go, and real support to grow.

More than 60 leaders participated in development paths and initiatives such as “Impulso EGB” — an educational incentive program that subsidizes technical courses and specializations for employees.

It manifests itself in small gestures, spontaneous feedback, the freedom to propose new ideas and the construction of real bonds between people. The company invests in inclusive communication, active listening and collective actions that strengthen the sense of belonging — such as themed parties, recognition rituals and direct chats with leadership.
