Let start introducing F1Boleto.com. What are the services provided; in which countries do you operate and what is your differential with other companies in this sector?
Tchello Caetano - F1Boleto.com promotes an innovative solution for Brazil's leading form of payment – Boleto (ticket) - confirming your payment within 1 hour of being actually paid by the user (9am to 6pm)!
To give you an idea, there are issued about 3.5 billion per year in Brazil. The fact is that online bank payment responds as the second most used form of payment in Brazil, but its payment confirmation takes more than 24 hours, at least, so the operator cannot release products / services to their customers even if the ticket has already been paid.
The great innovation of F1Boleto.com is that no matter which institution / processor you use to issue your ticket, whether from Itaú, Bradesco, Santander, Banco do Brasil, Caixa or other banks, F1Boleto.com will let you know as soon as it is paid.
We saw on your site that F1Boleto.com uses tools like API (RESTFul), postman and PayPal services. Can you explain how each one works and what benefits it brings to your customers?
Hiring can be done 100% online via the site www.f1boleto.com , there is even a way to test before hiring, payment is agile via Paypal. Consumption / utilization is done via API (RESTFul), ie friendly integration with any platform (programming language), and we provide Postman scripts to further simplify for the IT team.
The integration is very simple, just send the code line to the F1Boleto.com API ticket and, once paid, we will return the status "paid"; you can’t go wrong.
The hiring can also be done via direct contact with our team ([email protected]) and we can announce that GMB readers will have 10% discount on any volume * throughout the contract by signing up to 10/12/2019 (date where the OGS Brazil event in São Paulo ends).
Are you looking to also cater to the gaming industry. What benefits and innovations do you believe you can offer to operators that already work and those will arrive in Brazil in the future?
We believe ASAP information and confirmation will benefit both users and operators. The user can pay the ticket at any bank branch or authorized processors such as lottery agencies, pharmacies and supermarkets. It can also be paid electronically at over 50,000 ATMs throughout Brazil or via internet and digital banks, as well as services that allow payment of the ticket directly to the Credit Card!
Increasing security for both users and operators who using this convenience service creates a big difference with their users. Imagine the release of your credits within 1 hour paying via ‘boleto’; it's fantastic.
What is your view on the gambling market sector in Brazil considering the legalization of sports betting and the process for regularization of other modes, such as casinos and bingo?
The countless benefits to the market as well as to the country are undisputed! Bringing direct and indirect jobs, moving the economy with a market that needs to be regulated. In addition to encouraging companies like ours to provide solutions to local and real demands of the segment.
Following the grant of LOTEX to the IGT / SG consortium, the lottery industry will also expand and demand more technology and innovation. Do you believe you can offer services in this sector too, either nationally or for state lotteries?
We are already studying a product to offer to this market that will be perfect. We still can’t disclose any details, but we will rely on Games Magazine Brasil to disclose firsthand as soon as possible.
Turning to the issue of sports betting, there is a consensus among operators that payment methods are a problem in Brazil. Do you think your services can improve this scenario?
I believe so, since for our solution it is indifferent by which issuer was issued the bill, everyone can enjoy this differential (which in understanding of the market is essential).
You will be attending the OGS, organized by Clarion, next December in the city of São Paulo. Can you tell us about the importance of meetings like this for your company, what are your expectations and what do you expect to learn about the gaming market at this event?
Yes, we will definitely be talking to everyone and spreading the word about our solutions that serve this segment so well: F1Boleto.com and our Digital Onboarding / Know Your Customers (KYC) solution: ID Regtech.
There will be 2 days of event that will feature several renowned professionals in different areas debating and making available targeted and important content for the market.
We look forward to identifying several opportunities to create innovative solutions such as F1Boleto.com and IDReg.tech to serve them.
