ANJL challenges automatic betting ban for Brazilian benefit recipients
Brazil's automatic exclusion of Bolsa Família and BPC recipients from fixed-odds betting sites took effect under rules published on 1 October 2025. The ANJL challenged the measure in a technical note submitted to the Secretariat of Prizes and Betting on 22 September, arguing that it goes beyond the Supreme Federal Court's ruling and could push users towards unregulated betting.
The dispute concerns whether operators must automatically block benefit recipients and how the requirement should be implemented.
