Chile's sports minister questions betting sponsorships without iGaming rules
Chile’s sports minister, Francisco Riveros, said he opposed sponsorship agreements between sports clubs and online betting companies while the country lacks an iGaming regulatory framework. Riveros said the government was working to determine whether to regulate or prohibit the sector and that Subtel currently handled the matter. The report also reported a separate order to internet providers to block 37 betting-related sites within 48 hours.
Chile’s unresolved regulatory approach could affect sponsorship agreements between sports clubs and online betting companies.
