In a new report from Playtech, 60% of Brazilian respondents reported betting online within the last six months. The report, entitled Responsible Gambling: Consumer Insights and Trends in Latin America, acts as a supplement to Playtech’s initial insights report published in January of 2022.
This supplement saw 2,500 people surveyed across a number of LatAm countries. Participants were asked about their gambling behaviour, as well as their views on responsible gaming.
The report comes weeks after Brazil regulated sports betting. Details on how this will be rolled out are currently being wrangled in the country’s legislature.
Commenting on the report, José Francisco Cimino Manssur, special advisor to the Executive Secretariat of the Brazilian Ministry of Finance, said the importance of regulating the market and implementing responsible gaming measures “is becoming more evident every day”.
