Caixa Econômica Federal has put its planned BetCaixa launch back until at least 2027, after cancelling its intended 2026 launch. The bank said it had signed no operating contracts and had no obligation to pay fines; Caixa Loterias holds a federal fixed-odds betting licence valid until 31 December 2029.
The delay leaves Caixa’s licensed entry into Brazil’s fixed-odds betting market on hold, with no launch date before 2027.

Caixa Econômica Federal published Circular 1.123/2026, setting out version 21 of the CAIXA Lotteries Product Manual and authorising Caixa Loterías S.A. to operate the listed lottery formats. The revisions cover Dia de Sorte, Loteca and Timemania, including draw schedules, persistent bets and the team correlation table; the circular took effect on publication and repealed Circular 1.111.
Brazil’s lottery system generated R$26.6bn in public resources during 2025 from traditional lotteries and regulated fixed-odds betting, the report said.

Caixa Loterias generated BRL5.97 billion in revenue in Q1 2026, according to the report. Caixa’s planned sports betting and online gaming launch, previously expected in the first half of 2026, has been postponed to early 2027; the report says the bank has been authorised to operate three brands but has not launched its platform.
CAIXA Loterias reported BRL5.97bn in lottery revenue for January to March 2026, up 8.4% year on year. It said BRL3.2bn went to legally designated beneficiaries, equal to 53.1% of revenue for the quarter.
