Partnership marks a new phase for the project in Feira de Santana and strengthens visibility, engagement and fan experience in Bahian football.
Superbet has signed a major partnership with Feira FC, a newly established football SAF based in Feira de Santana, Brazil. The betting operator will serve as the club’s main sponsor and will also acquire the naming rights of its home stadium.
As part of the agreement, Estádio Professor Jodilton Souza, known as Arena Cajueiro, will be renamed Superbet Arena — a move that marks a milestone in the club’s development strategy and reinforces its positioning as an emerging asset in Brazilian football.
Modern and established infrastructure
Located in Feira de Santana, the stadium was inaugurated in 2018 as part of a broader sports complex featuring athlete facilities, a gym, meeting spaces and an auditorium, positioning itself as a fully integrated football environment.
In the following years, it underwent expansions, including structural development in 2020 and a new stand in 2021, reaching an estimated capacity of around 7,000 spectators.
The venue has also hosted key matches, including the 2021 Bahia State Championship final involving interior clubs, highlighting its relevance in the regional football landscape.
Strategic partnership driving growth
With the agreement, Superbet Arena becomes directly integrated into Feira FC’s growth strategy, expanding opportunities for brand activation, visibility and fan engagement.
The partnership brings together a rising football project and an established global brand, creating a platform for experiences both on and off the pitch.
“The arrival of Superbet as naming rights partner of our arena represents an important step in consolidating Feira FC,” said Neto Lima, investor and face of the club.
“This is a strategic partnership that strengthens our assets, expands our visibility and creates new ways to connect with fans. It reinforces the seriousness and potential of the project.”
Alex Fonseca, CEO of Superbet in Brazil, also commented on the agreement:
“The naming rights of Superbet Arena and the main sponsorship are based on a shared vision between Superbet and Feira FC about the future of sport, combining sporting development with a digital and innovative approach.
This partnership goes beyond the pitch and represents an investment in visibility for the Northeast and in the strengthening of Bahian football.”
A step forward for Feira de Santana’s football profile
Beyond the name change, Superbet Arena symbolizes the evolution of a project built on innovation, digital strength and close fan engagement as pillars of growth.
The initiative also reinforces Feira de Santana’s role as a strategic football hub in Bahia’s interior, increasing the city’s visibility and consolidating the venue as one of the key stages of Bahian football.
The arena now goes beyond being the home of Feira FC and positions itself as a relevant asset for regional sports development.
SAF structure and leadership
Feira FC is a football SAF created and managed by businessman and lawyer Marcus Rios. The vice presidency is held by Mayara Correa, while Neto Lima acts as investor, ambassador and main public face of the club. Bruno Karttos also serves as one of the club’s ambassadors, strengthening its connection with fans and communication strategy.

Lula vincula Novo Desenrola a un bloqueo obligatorio en plataformas de apuestas
La semana regulatoria en Brasil empezó con el anuncio del gobierno brasileño de una profunda reformulación del programa de renegociación de deudas, Novo Desenrola Brasil, introduciendo una medida que afecta directamente la operación de plataformas de apuestas online en el país.
El presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva confirmó que cualquier ciudadano que se adhiera a la iniciativa para saldar deudas será automáticamente bloqueado del acceso a sitios de apuestas durante un año.
La medida entra en vigor el próximo lunes y tiene como objetivo evitar que el alivio financiero generado por descuentos de hasta el 90% y tasas de interés reducidas del 1,99% mensual vuelva al mercado de apuestas.
La decisión estuvo acompañada de un discurso enfático del presidente sobre el impacto de las apuestas en el presupuesto de las familias de bajos ingresos, con ingresos de hasta cinco salarios mínimos.
“No es justo que las mujeres tengan que trabajar aún más para pagar las deudas de apuestas de sus maridos”, afirmó Lula.
El bloqueo se aplicará únicamente a los 84 operadores autorizados por el Ministerio de Hacienda. Las loterías y los sitios ilegales quedan fuera del alcance de la medida.
A pesar de la narrativa del gobierno que posiciona a las apuestas como un factor de endeudamiento de los hogares, datos recientes de la Secretaría de Premios y Apuestas y de LCA Consultoría Económica ofrecen una visión más analítica.
En 2025, el mercado regulado registró un GGR de R$ 37 mil millones, lo que representa apenas el 0,46% del consumo total de los hogares.
Con un 53,3% de los apostadores gastando hasta R$ 50 al mes, especialistas sostienen que el impacto financiero no justifica el diagnóstico de que el sector sea el principal responsable del 29,7% de los ingresos familiares comprometidos con deudas.
Brasil concluye reunión técnica de tres días sobre integridad deportiva
El gobierno brasileño concluyó en Brasilia el II Encuentro Técnico Nacional para el Combate a la Manipulación de Resultados Deportivos. El evento, de tres días de duración, reunió a los ministerios de Hacienda, Deporte y Justicia, consolidándose como el principal foro interinstitucional de políticas de integridad deportiva.
Uno de los puntos destacados fue el anuncio de un sistema de análisis de apuestas sospechosas desarrollado por la Policía Federal, destinado a organizar datos estratégicos y apoyar investigaciones complejas de fraude.
El gobierno también lanzó la segunda edición del Manual Nacional de Combate a la Manipulación de Resultados Deportivos.
La formalización de la Política Nacional de Prevención y Combate a la Manipulación (Portaria 1/2026) fue presentada como un resultado concreto del grupo de trabajo.
La secretaria Daniele Cardoso afirmó que la medida convierte la integridad en una política pública de Estado.
El encuentro también anunció el primer curso de educación a distancia sobre el tema, ofrecido por la Academia Nacional de Policía.
La presencia del director general de la Policía Federal, Andrei Rodrigues, y de representantes de la United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime subrayó la dimensión internacional del marco de cooperación.
ANJL cuestiona el bloqueo del Desenrola 2 y señala contradicciones
Un deudor con R$ 20.000 en deuda de tarjeta de crédito que apuesta R$ 50 al mes será bloqueado de las plataformas licenciadas bajo Desenrola 2, pero seguirá teniendo acceso a bancos y entidades financieras con tasas de interés aún más altas.
Esta asimetría está en el centro de las críticas de la Associação Nacional de Jogos e Loterias, que representa a los operadores licenciados en Brasil.
La asociación reconoce la intención del gobierno, pero señala lo que califica como contradicciones “extremadamente relevantes”.
Estudios de Pay4Fun y LCA Consultoría indican que el gasto en apuestas no se encuentra entre los principales factores de endeudamiento de los hogares en Brasil. Las causas principales, según la ANJL, son los intereses del crédito rotativo de tarjeta y del descubierto bancario, que no están restringidos por el Desenrola 2.
La preocupación más concreta de la entidad es operativa: los apostadores bloqueados en las 84 plataformas licenciadas tienden a migrar hacia los miles de sitios ilegales que aún operan en el país, fortaleciendo un segmento sin compromiso con la salud financiera o mental de los usuarios.
La ANJL afirma apoyar medidas que combatan la percepción de las apuestas como dinero fácil o inversión, pero sostiene que dichas iniciativas deben ser proporcionales a las causas reales del endeudamiento.
Abogados de LatAm se destacan en el principal evento jurídico del sector
Un panel con especialistas en derecho del juego de cuatro países fue uno de los puntos destacados de la International Masters of Gaming Law Spring Conference, celebrada del 29 de abril al 1 de mayo en el Ritz Carlton Pentagon City, en Arlington, Virginia (región de Washington).
La International Masters of Gaming Law es una asociación por invitación con más de 300 miembros, incluidos abogados en ejercicio, directores jurídicos de las mayores empresas globales de gaming y asesores de reguladores nacionales.
Sus conferencias semestrales son consideradas el principal foro de intercambio intelectual y networking en el derecho global del juego.
Neil Montgomery, del estudio Montgomery, uno de los nombres más reconocidos en derecho de iGaming en la región, compartió el panel con Tomás Enrique García Botta, Luis Portela de Carvalho, Jaime Rivera-Emmanuelli y Juan Camilo Carrasco, representando a Argentina, Portugal, Puerto Rico y Colombia.
Montgomery calificó la recepción como positiva.
“Muy satisfecho de ver que el panel en el que participé fue aclamado por el público”, afirmó tras la sesión de cierre. “Fue una excelente conferencia. Gracias a los organizadores por otra experiencia impecable. Nos vemos en París.”
El protagonismo de un bloque latinoamericano en el IMGL refleja el creciente peso regulatorio de la región en el debate global. Brasil, Colombia y Argentina concentran algunos de los procesos de licenciamiento más activos del mundo en los últimos 24 meses, y sus especialistas legales comienzan a ocupar espacio en foros históricamente dominados por voces europeas y norteamericanas.
La próxima conferencia del IMGL se celebrará en París.
