Brazilian Ministry of Finance and IBIA sign sports betting integrity agreement
The Brazilian Ministry of Finance and the International Betting Integrity Association (IBIA) have signed a sports betting integrity cooperation agreement. It will allow both parties to share information concerning suspicious betting activity connected to Brazilian sport and collaborate on any investigations.
The agreement brings together the governmental body responsible for ensuring that the Brazilian market is legal, safe and reliable, and the largest international betting integrity monitor for private operators in the world. Leading industry data and intelligence company H2 Gambling Capital has forecast that IBIA will cover more than 70% of the Brazilian remote gambling market.
According to ‘The Availability of Sports Betting Products: An Economic and Integrity Analysis’ study published earlier this year, the new sports betting regulatory regime in Brazil is projected to create $34bn in sports betting turnover by 2028. With this increased growth comes a greater responsibility to protect customers, sports and betting operators from match-fixing.
A key element of the new Brazilian regulatory framework is the requirement that operators seeking a licence must join an independent sports integrity monitoring body. This licensing requirement is helping to strengthen IBIA’s capacity to monitor, assess and protect betting transactions in Brazil’s regulated sports betting market and maintain the integrity of Brazilian sporting events.
Regis Dudena, Secretary of Betting and Prizes, said: “Cooperation with IBIA will add to SPA’s work in combating the manipulation of sporting events. And together we will mitigate this problem on a global scale.”
Khalid Ali, IBIA CEO, said: “IBIA is delighted to have reached this agreement with the Brazilian Ministry of Finance and welcomes the government’s increased focus on creating a robust sports betting integrity ecosystem to tackle match-fixing. Collaboration and information sharing are key to the success of this ecosystem. Under this agreement IBIA will identify and report suspicious betting on Brazilian sporting events to the Ministry of Finance to support investigatory actions. That will include detailed customer account data that is only available to IBIA and its members.”
Frederico Alves Soares Justo, General Coordinator of Money Laundering at the Brazilian Ministry of Finance, said: “For the Secretary of Prizes and Betting to sign this agreement with IBIA is the certainty that we are on the right path to curb the manipulation of results. We will make the most of the experience that IBIA has in monitoring the betting market to create mechanisms that curb this practice that undermines the credibility of sport and the betting market. It’s a partnership in which everyone wins.”
IBIA is a globally recognised non-profit organization that seeks to safeguard the integrity of the sports and betting sectors by fighting betting related match-fixing and fraud. It provides a free integrity monitoring service to sports governing bodies, regulators and law enforcement agencies that, importantly, is also free from potential conflicts created by the provision of competing commercial services, enabling all parties to efficiently and effectively cooperate in investigating, prosecuting and deterring sports betting related match-fixing.
IBIA monitors over $300bn per annum in betting turnover across more than 125 sports betting brands globally, making IBIA the largest betting integrity monitor of its type for private operators in the world. The association’s unrivalled access to detailed global customer transactional data has, and will continue, to play a pivotal role in protecting the Brazilian sports betting market and sporting events from corrupt activity.

SPRIBE Drops Aviator Challenges
The world’s number one crash game gets even more thrilling with the addition of Missions, Races and Tournaments
SPRIBE, the award-winning developer behind the original crash game, Aviator, has added another tool to the box with the launch of Challenges, bringing even more excitement, entertainment and competition to the experience.
Aviator Challenges allows operators to launch Missions, Races and Tournaments, forging an additional competitive layer and even more social interaction, while providing a fresh way for players to engage with the game, which is now played by more than 60 million people per month.
Missions see players complete a task before a set deadline, while Races are similar but with a limited prize pool up for grabs, creating a strong sense of FOMO while helping operators control promo budgets. Tournaments then take the classic and well-loved format.
SPRIBE gives operators full control over creating and running Aviator Challenges, and they can choose the type, timing, prize, names, descriptions, colours, and tasks for deep personalisation and granular localisation.
Aviator Challenges has debuted with operators in Africa and will be rolled out globally over the coming weeks and months. This will be followed by the launch of regional tournaments, which again will debut in Africa before being made available internationally.
The launch of Challenges will drive even greater engagement with Aviator, which currently sees players place more than 400,000 bets per minute across 5,500+ online casinos and sportsbooks worldwide.
Giorgi Tsutskiridze, CCO at SPRIBE, said: “Challenges take the Aviator experience to a whole other level for both players and operators.
“Those that have already embraced Challenges have seen an immediate, positive impact on player behaviour across core KPIs such as retention and bet numbers per player.
“To get the most out of Challenges, operators do need to be creative, especially when it comes to marketing support, segmentation, prize zones, rewards and tasks.
“But we have ensured Challenges have the flexibility to do this and a whole lot more.
“Aviator is already the number one crash game in the world with more than 60 million players a month, but with Challenges, we expect that number to climb ever higher.”

Lady of Fortune Destiny Spins returns with mystical upgrades
Play’n GO revives one of its earliest icons with Lady of Fortune Destiny Spins. The Lady steps back into the spotlight with a refreshed presence, ushering in a wave of unpredictability that rewards attention and patience in equal measure.
With a glowing crystal ball at her side, the Lady of Fortune transforms missed chances into charged potential. Every non-winning spin has the power to unlock the Pick Prize – a magical card reveal that can lead to valuable rewards. In both the base game and Destiny Spins, scattered symbols and upgraded Wild multipliers make sure momentum never fades.
The slot balances simplicity with suspense. The Destiny Spins feature, which can be re-triggered, gives players the opportunity to build on their fortune with up to 80 spins. Meanwhile, multipliers on Wilds – which can go as high as x10 – create a sense of build-up that complements the mystical tone. The three-way pay mechanic (left to right, right to left, and middle) adds a layer of accessibility for newer players while keeping seasoned fans engaged.
Thematically, this game draws from the original Lady of Fortune while refining her identity for a contemporary audience. Visually enriched and mechanically streamlined, this sequel captures the essence of the first title without leaning on nostalgia alone. It joins a family of fortune-themed slots that offer more than just luck – they offer layered decision-making wrapped in atmospheric presentation.
Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO, said: “Bringing back the Lady of Fortune was a very deliberate choice. With Destiny Spins and the Pick Prize mechanic, we’re showing how classic themes can still feel fresh when paired with elegant design.”
Lady of Fortune Destiny Spins invites players to look beyond the obvious – the rewards may be hidden, but never out of reach.
