In Argentina, 77% of respondents advocate for stricter regulations on betting advertisements, similar to other countries, while 88% support stronger age verification policies on betting websites due to challenges with minors playing online. In Chile, 63% of participants feel safer using a legal and registered platform, though only 15% consider themselves fully up-to-date with current legislation.
Colombia, which has updated its regulations in recent years, emerged as the most mature market surveyed. The importance of fast and reliable payment providers was highlighted, with 58% of Colombians citing this as the most crucial factor when choosing a gambling platform.
Mor Weizer, CEO of Playtech, said: “We are pleased to release our third report on ‘Responsible Gambling: Consumer Insights and Trends in Latin America.’ Since launching the first edition in 2020, our goal has been to provide the sector with a deeper understanding of the region’s specific needs and challenges as the online gambling sector continues to mature and evolve with new regulations. This latest edition provides valuable insights into local market nuances across Latin America. Markets like Brazil and Peru present significant opportunities for growth and innovation.
