Gaming Corps makes debut in regulated Brazil

 

Provider among a small number of studios that went live from day one with more than 50 games already being enjoyed by players at big name brands like Betano and Superbet

Gaming Corps, a publicly listed game studio based in Sweden, has made its hotly anticipated debut in the newly regulated Brazilian iGaming market.

The developer is one of a small number of providers offering 50+ slot, casino and non-traditional games to operators in the market, which opened its doors to regulated online gambling on 1 January 2025, from day one.

Gaming Corps content is already live with some of the leading operators in the market including the likes of Betano, Sportingtech and Superbet. The studio is now looking to join forces with other brands so they too can launch its in-demand content to their players.

Gaming Corps anticipates huge interest in its non-traditional casino content including Mines and its unique Smash4Cash™ game series.

The provider’s most popular games among Brazilian players include Penalty Champion and Jet Lucky 2 but operators can access Gaming Corp’s entire portfolio including Casino Slots, Table Games, Multiplier Games, Ine Games, Plinko Games and Smash4Cash™ titles.

Brazil is set to be one of the largest iGaming markets in Latin America and is estimated to be worth up to $1.4bn in 2025 alone rising to $3.7bn by 2029 according to H2 Gambling Capital.

Juha KauppinenCEO of Gaming Corps, said: “The entire industry has been working very hard to be prepared for Brazil launching on January 1 2025, and this includes the entire Gaming Corps team.

“Competition is of course fierce but that also makes our achievement of being among the first providers to launch into the market with more than 50 games even stronger.

“Gaming Corps was one of the very few suppliers already live on day one with so many games on the leading operators, and we will now work even harder to get them live on even more licensed brands in the coming weeks and months.

“The potential in Brazil speaks for itself, and with our unique non-traditional games and our ability to create localised experiences, we have high hopes for the Brazilian market becoming a success for us and our operator partners.”

Published

on

 

International Game Technology PLC announced that it is the first gaming industry supplier to receive the Internet Compliance Assessment Program (iCAP) Ready accreditation for its iLottery operations from the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG).

Based on the original iCAP designed for gaming operators, iCAP Ready is a U.S. accreditation program designed for gaming suppliers who are committed to upholding responsible gaming standards across their products and services. Supported by the NCPG, iCAP Ready utilizes best practices from the Internet Responsible Gambling Standards to ensure suppliers implement and maintain responsible gambling policies, provide effective staff training, and offer comprehensive player support tools.

“We applaud IGT for leading the way as the first recipient of the iCAP Ready accreditation. This achievement showcases IGT’s leadership and demonstrates that suppliers play a crucial role in ensuring player protections and promoting responsible play,” said Keith Whyte, Executive Director of the National Council on Problem Gambling.

“Being the first gaming industry supplier to achieve the iCAP Ready certification for our iLottery business is a testament to IGT’s comprehensive responsible gaming processes and practices implemented throughout the organization, and our dedication to protecting our employees, customers, and players worldwide. With Advancing Responsibility as a core pillar of IGT’s Sustainable Play program, we aim to meet and exceed responsible gaming standards as a trusted supplier to ensure that our customers are provided with the necessary tools to keep their players safe and promote positive play,” said Wendy Montgomery, IGT SVP Marketing, Communications and Sustainability.

To obtain the iCAP Ready accreditation, IGT’s responsible gaming policies and practices were audited by an independent agency. An overall compliance assessment was also performed by a third party on behalf of NCPG to ensure IGT’s responsible gaming framework met iCAP Ready’s objective of protecting the consumer and ensuring safer gambling practices for players, beginning with the supplier.
