EGT Digital is proud to announce that it has obtained a licence that allows it to provide its software products in Brazil. The Bulgarian provider was certified by the regulator Secretariat of Prizes and Bets (SPA) and can now offer local operators its rich portfolio of gaming solutions, containing over 120 in-house developed casino titles and the 4 top-performing jackpots Bell Link, High Cash, Clover Chance, and Single Progressive Jackpot.

Tsvetomira Drumeva, Head of Sales at EGT Digital, shared her excitement regarding the authorization: “We are delighted to have the opportunity to present our gaming content to the Brazilian market. Our slots are available to domestic players, ready to captivate them with their numerous fascinating features and provide an unforgettable experience, fully tailored to their tastes and preferences.”

Global gaming powerhouse SkillOnNet is among the first companies to receive provisional authorisation to operate in Brazil. The first SkillOnNet localised brands to launch in the newly regulated market are PlayUZU.bet.br and BacanaPlay.bet.br, two already successful European and Latam casinos but with very different features and USPs providing a wider choice to casino players in Brazil.

The licence represents a new milestone in the Latam market for the Malta-based gaming and entertainment giant. In recent years, SkillOnNet, through its awards winning PlayUZU brand, has made inroads into the regulated markets of Mexico, Peru, and Buenos Airies City in Argentina.

The new licensing regime came into force on January 1, 2025 after Brazil’s president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva signed a bill into law to regulate and tax online gaming in December 2023.  Regulatory intelligence analyst Vixio predicts Brazil’s online gaming and betting will exceed $2.9bn in annual gross revenue in 2025, rising to almost $6.3bn in 2028.

Since its launch in Portugal in 2020, BacanaPlay has become a household brand name. In Portuguese, the world “bacana” means “cool,” which encapsulates the fun, friendly vibe of the brand.

PlayUZU.bet.br is the Portuguese language version of SkillOnNet’s flagship Spanish brand, which has already proved hugely popular in Latin America. PlayUZU is marketed as a “fair” online casino that offers players a unique package of benefits including no wagering requirements and money back on every bet, win or lose.

SkillOnNet operates more than 40 brands in multiple regulated markets, globally. It also boasts one of the richest and most diverse gaming platforms in the world, with premium casino content from top software providers and a host of exclusive slots and dedicated Live casino tables.

Pedro Garcia Country Manager for Brazil at SkillOnNet said: “We believe Brazil will quickly become one of the biggest online gaming markets in the world. Our goal is to be a tier-one casino operator in this hugely significant new market by investing aggressively in marketing and brand development and establishing a strong local team. Our licensing in Brazil is a reflection of our commitment to regulatory compliance and to fair and responsible gaming, and we’re excited to showcase our specially localized high-quality content to a massive new audience.”  

Play’n GO, the world’s leading casino entertainment provider, has today announced that its industry-leading games are now live in Brazil.

Players in the world’s newest regulated market can now enjoy an initial suite of more than 50 titles including Play’n GO’s all conquering Rich Wilde and the Book of Dead, multiple games from the fan favourite ‘Toonz and Moon Princess series, as well as Sweet Alchemy Bingo and Rainforest Magic Bingo that are expected to be hits in the South American market.

As of January 2025, Play’n GO offers a portfolio of close to 400 premium titles in over 35 regulated jurisdictions worldwide.

Magnus Olsson, Chief Commercial Officer at Play’n GO, said:

“The industry has been waiting for more than a decade for Brazil to open a regulated market and it’s fantastic to see what was once just a pipe dream now become reality.

“As is the Play’n GO way, we’re excited to be among of the first in the new market with a wide range of games certified and ready to go. Our customers know they can launch Play’n GO games with confidence, and we’ve seen that pay dividends time and again when new markets open like now in Brazil or markets re-regulate.”

Michele Stefanelli, Sales Leader for Southern Europe and LATAM at Play’n GO, added: “The Brazilian market has proven itself in the pre-regulated phase and we’re excited to see our games launch with some of the biggest operators in the world who are committed to making the regulated Brazilian market a success.”
