Betano and CBF Present Brasileirão Betano
Betano and CBF (Confederação Brasileira de Futebol), the Brazilian Football Confederation, announce a new partnership that will see Betano become the new main sponsor and exclusive betting partner of Campeonato Brasileiro Série A. Starting from the 2024 season, which begun on Sunday, April 14, the competition will be known as Brasileirão Betano.
The Brazilian Série A sponsorship is the latest in a series of partnerships with prestigious football competitions for Betano within 2024. The brand has already become the official and exclusive betting partner for both the CONMEBOL Copa America 2024 and the UEFA EURO 2024, while in Brazil Betano already sponsors Copa Betano do Brasil (the Brazilian Cup). The new deal gives Betano the naming rights for the most popular domestic competition in South America. Together, Betano and CBF aim to elevate the competition’s experience for all the fans in Brazil and across the world. At the same time, the two parties are planning to work on initiatives that will benefit the wider Brazilian community.
“As of today, the iconic football national league of Brazil will be known as Brasileirão Betano and that’s quite special. During the past few years the quality of the Brazilian Série A, already among the top football leagues in the world, has reached a whole new level. It is not by chance that during the past five years a Brazilian team always wins the Copa Libertadores. We watch exciting title races, with a lot of different teams fighting to emerge as Brazilian Champions. This new partnership further establishes our commitment to support the sports community in Brazil, while at the same time providing an unforgettable online betting experience to fans in a safe environment characterized by responsible gaming practices. We would like to thank the CBF for entrusting us to be their partners,” Tomasz Majewski, Head of Sponsorships at Betano, said.
“I would like to welcome Betano as the official main partner of the Brasileirão Betano. This is a respected and loved brand that has won over numerous sports fans here in Brazil. It has always operated with integrity and responsibility and has taken an active stance to support local communities across the world. Its gravitas is proved through its presence in world-class clubs and international tournaments, as, for instance, this year’s sponsorship of the CONMEBOL Copa America 2024 and the UEFA EURO 2024. We are confident that everyone will benefit from this partnership, from Brazilian football overall, to fans and the wider community. We’re wishing a great start to the Brasileirão Betano,” Lenin Fracon, Marketing Director at CBF, said.
