Brazil betting secretary says operators bear responsibility for bettor protection
Brazil’s Secretary of Prizes and Betting, Regis Dudena, said online betting operates through state authorisation and that operators are responsible for protecting bettors. He said the department may refuse or revoke authorisation where an applicant’s suitability or the public interest is in doubt, and described individual customer limits based on bettor profiles rather than generic restrictions.
Dudena’s account sets out how authorisation decisions and operator duties shape compliance in Brazil’s betting market.
