Finance Minister Dario Durigan announced the package Thursday, with two ordinances slated for publication in the official gazette Friday and a compliance deadline of July 17. The centerpiece requires every advertisement from an authorized operator to carry one of three warnings in the Finance Ministry’s name, modeled on the labels long mandatory for cigarettes, alcohol, and medicines: “betting makes you lose money,” “betting can cause addiction,” or “betting is not an investment.”

Operators are barred from creating a sense of urgency to bet, presenting wagers as investments or a financial solution for families, and showcasing winnings or prize histories as bait. “Nothing about displaying winnings as a lure, nothing about selling betting as easy money, as investment, or as a financial solution for families,” Durigan said, per Agência Brasil.

A distinctive provision targets the sports-media ecosystem: commentators, pundits, and narrators may not use their authority to steer audiences toward bets. Statements carrying “a veneer of technical backing” that direct a consumer toward a specific wager are off-limits, Durigan said – a restriction that gained visibility during World Cup broadcasts, where the volume of betting promotion woven into transmissions has drawn public criticism. The minister also pledged zero tolerance for advertising that reaches children or adolescents.

A second ordinance, issued jointly with the Justice Ministry, tightens the screws on unlicensed operators. Media outlets, advertising agencies, and influencers are prohibited from carrying any promotion for a platform not authorized to operate in Brazil – Durigan called the government’s stance on illegal operators “zero tolerance.” Since regulation took effect, authorities have taken down 56,000 illegal betting sites and roughly 1,000 influencer profiles, and around a million bettors have been placed in mandated self-exclusion for failing to meet legal requirements. Operators that violate the advertising rules face fines of up to 20% of revenue, suspension for up to 180 days, and, for serious repeat offences, revocation of their license to operate in the Brazilian market.

In recent months, Brazil has moved from blocking illegal betting sites to freezing and seizing the bank funds behind them under a June decree, while federal police have raided crypto-laundering betting rings tied to the illegal market. The government has also banned unlicensed prediction-market platforms such as Kalshi and Polymarket, classifying them as illegal betting rather than financial instruments. The new ad rules extend that pressure from the operators themselves to the media, agencies, and influencers that carry their promotion – tightening the perimeter around a market Brazil legalized only in January 2025, doing so at the sport’s highest-attention moment.
