The regulations for sports betting and online casinos are a significant step toward Brazil's modern online gambling landscape. Casinos will also remain illegal for the time being, but further changes are expected in the coming years. I think the ban on bonus bets is an interesting decision.
Casinos have been considered illegal in Brazil and considered a criminal misdemeanour since 1946, by a decree signed by President Eurico Gaspar Dutra, who would have been influenced by his wife Carmela Teles Dutra, who was known for her strong religiosity to Catholic Church.
