Federal government ban affects betting supply chain spanning 42 economic activities
A federal government ban on online gambling platforms in Brazil affects a supply chain linked to at least 42 economic activities, a study by LCA Consultoria commissioned by the IBJR says. The regulated market supported about 15,5 mil direct and indirect jobs in 2025; the study says the ban could reduce or eliminate some positions but will not end them all immediately.
The ban could expose workers and suppliers across the regulated betting supply chain to job losses and contract costs.
