Brazil's SPA orders immediate suspension of 14 licensed betting sites

The Secretariat of Prizes and Betting (SPA) adopted seven precautionary measures against six operators and ordered 14 licensed sites to stop taking bets, leaving players able only to withdraw funds.

The decision

The measures follow sanctioning cases opened in August 2025. Five relate to failures to send data to the SPA's monitoring system (Sigap), and two to failures to put effective responsible-gambling controls in place. Operators that do not comply face a daily fine of R$200,000.

Sites named

  • Pixbet Soluções Tecnológicas – pixbet.bet.br, ganhei.bet.br, betdasorte.bet.br
  • Zeroumbet Digital Platform – zeroum.bet.br, sportvip.bet.br, energia.bet.br
  • Enseada Serviços e Tecnologia – kbet.bet.br
  • Select Operations – mma.bet.br, betvip.bet.br, papigames.bet.br
  • Nexus International – megaposta.bet.br
  • RR Participações e Intermediações de Negócios – multibet.bet.br, rico.bet.br, brx.bet.br

What this means for the register

This is separate from the nationwide ban under Provisional Measure No. 1,394. Eight of these sites are on IRLG's Brazil list and now carry a note about the suspension: kbet.bet.br, betvip.bet.br, papigames.bet.br, ganhei.bet.br, betdasorte.bet.br, rico.bet.br, brx.bet.br and megaposta.bet.br. The SPA's own list records energia.bet.br under a different company, so we have not added a note to it.
