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.
