Brazilian Senate committee advances bill to ban online betting advertising

Regulation

Brazil's Senate Science and Technology Committee approved a bill banning advertising, promotion and sponsorship for fixed-odds betting and online games nationwide. The proposal also prohibits betting linked to elections and moves to the Constitution and Justice Committee for review; the Brazilian Institute of Responsible Gaming warned the ban could benefit illegal operators.

The proposal could restrict licensed operators' advertising and sponsorship if it advances into law.
