With the advancement of regulations and the market adjustment process, the SPA has been responding to requests for adjustments to the authorizations of companies authorized to operate sports betting and online gaming in Brazil.
NSX Group, which was authorized by Ordinance 2092/2024 to operate under the Betnacional and Mr. Jack brands, now operates only under the former, with the publication of Ordinance 1814/2025.
The new Ordinances 1812 and 1813 authorize A2FBR to operate the Bolsa de Apostas, Fulltbet, Betbra, Pinnacle, Matchbook, and Betespecial brands, also in physical stores. Previously, the licenses only covered online operations.
The three ordinances were signed by Regis Dudena, Secretary of Prizes and Bets (SPA) at the Ministry of Finance.
