BETCRIS AND MLB COLLABORATE ON NEW EXPERIENCES AND BENEFITS FOR THE 2023 SEASON

Betcris, the first and only sponsor of Major League Baseball (MLB) in the game category for Latin America, is proud to announce its collaboration for the 2023 season. The alliance between Betcris and MLB has been successful in recent years, and this year they aim to continue improving the Betcris customer experience.
Randall Aguilar, sponsorship director at Betcris, stated that “for the 2023 season, MLB and Betcris are excited to try new experiences and benefits for Betcris customers. The league is working on opening issues that will allow Betcris a greater brand presence and better digital integration.” Furthermore, Aguilar clarified that surprises are being prepared that could further benefit the customer experience throughout the season. The exact details of these new experiences and benefits will be confirmed later.
During the 2023 World Baseball Classic in Miami, both parties reaffirmed their interest in continuing to work together to shape this sponsorship into something that truly makes a difference for Betcris customers. In recent years, Betcris has worked closely with MLB to offer unique experiences to its customers and partners. For the 2023 season, a series of experiences have been projected, such as the Mexico Series, London Series, All-Star Week 2023 in Seattle, some featured regular-season series, the 2023 Playoffs, and the 2023 World Series.
Betcris won the 2022 Sponsorship of the Year award at the SBC Latin America Awards in Miami, thanks to its partnership with MLB. It has demonstrated steady growth and successful positioning of Betcris and MLB in the markets where the sponsorship applies.
Betcris customers and partners have enjoyed exciting events such as the 2021 All-Star Week in Colorado, the 2021 Playoffs, the 2021 World Series, and some regular-season series in 2021 and 2022, according to the customer’s preferences. Additionally, events include the 2022 All-Star Week in Los Angeles, the 2022 Playoffs, the 2022 World Series, the 2022 Home Run Derby X in Mexico, and the semifinals and final of the 2023 World Baseball Classic have been enthusiastically experienced by Betcris customers.

SOFTSWISS Releases 19-in-1 Market Overview: iGaming in Latin America

SOFTSWISS, a global tech provider of iGaming software solutions, has unveiled its latest report on Latin America’s iGaming landscape, providing a comprehensive, data-rich guide for operators navigating one of the industry’s fastest-evolving regions.Â
After becoming the first certified iGaming software provider in Brazil and obtaining further approval in Peru, SOFTSWISS has deepened its regional expertise to help operators, regulators, and stakeholders better understand and operate within the dynamic LatAm iGaming market.
As the iGaming sector turns its eyes toward emerging markets, Latin America stands out as both a challenge and an opportunity. The newly released Latin America’s iGaming Market Overview from SOFTSWISS offers a detailed, country-by-country analysis of the region’s regulatory frameworks, market potential, and player behaviour.Â
The report serves as a starting point for understanding gambling regulation across Latin America. It helps analysts, governmental institutions, and operators solve the problem of scattered and unclear information about the market peculiarities of the region’s countries, equipping stakeholders with the knowledge to build strategies grounded in local realities.
What’s Inside the Report?
The iGaming in Latin America Market Overview examines 19 jurisdictions and outlines their licensing conditions, taxation models, local ownership requirements, and digital infrastructure, which collectively shape the operating landscape. The 2025 edition offers:
- Detailed regulatory snapshots for land-based and online gambling in LatAm countries
- In-depth assessments of mobile penetration, payment infrastructure, and demographic trends
- Analysis of traditional betting culture and its impact on online product strategies
- Insights into upcoming reforms and their competitive implications
Many local experts note that the Latin American market is highly fragmented, with each country presenting its own unique regulatory landscape for iGaming. From Costa Rica’s legal grey zones to Paraguay’s border casinos and Brazil’s regulatory leap with Law No. 14.790, the report underscores how nuanced and fragmented the market remains. Understanding distinct frameworks is critical for any operator looking to succeed in the region, whose potential is really powerful when approached strategically.
Magnho JosĂ©, President of Instituto Jogo Legal (IJL), comments: “Costa Rica’s open licensing model has positioned the country as a global hub for online gambling, serving operators from both Latin and North America. Meanwhile, border zones like Ciudad del Este in Paraguay host some of the region’s most established land-based casinos. Latin America’s market isn’t just growing, it’s geographically layered and commercially diverse.”
The SOFTSWISS overview gives operators a clear, data-informed view of where the region stands today – and where it is headed next.
Dario Leiman, Head of Business Development in Latin America at SOFTSWISS, shares his excitement: “With Brazil’s full-scale iGaming regulation now in place, SOFTSWISS is fully ready to operate in the market. In parallel, we’ve been evaluating opportunities in other Latin American countries. This report is more than a regional snapshot – it’s a practical tool for any operator looking to eliminate the guesswork from market entry and make informed decisions.”
The Latin America report is part of a broader effort by SOFTSWISS to deliver strategic, market-specific intelligence for iGaming professionals. Earlier this year, the company released the iGaming in South Africa 2025 report – an in-depth analysis of one of Africa’s most promising regulated markets.
