ANJL's position

Regulation of certifying entities for betting systems will bring more security to the market

The publication of the ordinance that defines the criteria for accreditation of certification laboratories for the sports betting and online gaming segment had a positive impact on the market. The National Association of Gaming and Lotteries (ANJL) points out that the rules for the entities' operations tend to further strengthen the reliability of regular platforms.

The definition of rules for the operation of certifying entities of betting systems in Brazil is another step that reinforces security for both betting houses and bettors.

This is the assessment of the The National Association of Gaming and Lotteries (ANJL) regarding the publication of SPA Ordinance No. 300 by the Ministry of Finance in the Official Gazette of this Monday (26).

According to ANJL President Wesley Cardia, the Ministry of Finance's ordinance tends to strengthen the reliability of regular platforms.

The ordinance stipulates that certifying companies must prove to the Secretariat for Prizes and Bets their technical qualification, as well as proof of integrity, legal eligibility, and tax and labor regularity.

For the entity's president, Wesley Cardia, the requirements tend to further strengthen the reliability of the platforms for bettors, who will be sure to be participating in fair games and betting on companies that meet all the specifications and certificates of the Ministry of Finance.

"When accessing a betting site whose systems have been duly verified, whose integrity has been proven by an accredited laboratory, the player will be sure that they are dealing with a serious company and that, if they win the bet, they will be paid the prize due," Cardia said.

Ordinance 300, published in the Official Gazette, is the first in a series that will be issued in the coming days so that the entire process of regulating sports betting and online games is completed by March, when companies must formally submit their license applications to operate in Brazil.

The The National Association of Gaming and Lotteries (ANJL) was created a year ago to defend the interests of its members, the sector, and responsible and honest gaming, always guided by the promotion of sports, the security of bets, and contribution to the country's economic development.

Among the members are galera.bet/PlayTech, Kaizen, Betano, Big Brazil, Hebara, F12, PagBet, Betnacional, Mr. Jack, Parimatch, BetFast, Aposta Ganha, Liderança Capitalização, ZRO Bank, and OKTO.
