Why Brazil, why now

Brazil’s Federal Law 14.790/2023 and the SECAP licensing framework it created remain the largest new regulated iGaming market in the Western hemisphere. By the 2027 edition, the licensing question is fully settled — the roughly 100 operator licences that went live through 2025 and 2026 have had a full year to compete on product and marketing rather than paperwork, and the industry heads into Riocentro with Brazil’s 2026 general elections behind it and any resulting policy signals starting to filter through.

Programme tracks

Confirmed tracks for 2027 include: Payments and PIX integration, Affordability and responsible gambling under SECAP rules, Tax compliance (IRRF withholding at source), Sports betting integration (Brasileirão sponsorship rules), Esports and crash games, Affiliate marketing post-regulation.

The payment track continues to draw the most live-trade interest — operator cashier teams swap notes on PIX latency, KYC threshold questions, and which BaaS providers (banking-as-a-service) actually keep up with PIX SLA expectations.

Who shows up

  • Major Brazilian licensees: bet365 Brasil, Betano (Kaizen Gaming), Sportingbet (Entain), Caesars, BetMGM, ESPN BET
  • Operator groups with strong Brazil interest: Stake (separate offshore), Pin-Up Group, Brazino777
  • Suppliers: Pragmatic Play, Evolution, Hacksaw, Spribe (Aviator)
  • Regulators: SECAP/Ministério da Fazenda speakers on enforcement priorities
  • Brazilian affiliate networks and content producers

Access and cost

Free expo pass on pre-registration. Conference pass for the speaker programme runs from approximately R$2,500 (early bird) to R$4,500 (door price). VIP networking events are invite-only.

VegasHunter coverage angle

We follow SBC Rio to confirm three things: which operators are consolidating market share after two full years of SECAP competition, which new payment integrations launch (PIX Recorrente, Boleto+ instant variants), and how any post-election policy shifts affect SECAP enforcement priorities for the year ahead.

Why this matters

Brazil remains the most important new iGaming market of the decade. The 2027 edition follows a full year of SECAP enforcement bedding in and Brazil's 2026 general elections — the conversation has moved firmly from 'can we operate?' to 'how do we compete and consolidate?'
