Lula proposes possible ban on online betting platforms in Brazil
Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has raised the possibility of a national ban on online betting platforms, according to the report. He said the government was examining the option, which would require parliamentary approval. The report says operators currently pay about 12% of revenue in tax and that the government is considering increasing the burden.
A national ban under consideration could reshape online betting, but would require parliamentary approval.
