IN DISPUTE OVER BRASILEIRÃO BROADCASTING RIGHTS, LFU TRYING TO ISOLATE FLAMENGO FROM CLUBS IN PAULISTA

This last Friday (6), the Court banned most of PixBet's competitors from operating in Rio de Janeiro. Anatel (National Telecommunications Agency) complied with a TRF-1 decision and determined that internet operators block within the State the websites of all betting houses that do not have a Loterj license to operate in the city.

The sponsor Mais Querido's master, PixBet, is one of the five betting houses that have a license from Loterj to operate in Rio de Janeiro. Others that have already completed accreditation in the State are: Apostau RJ, BestBet, Majorsports and Rio Jogo.

The Federal Revenue is questioning the granting of a license given by Loterj. Because according to the IRS, Loterj, linked to the government of Rio, granted licenses that could only be for operation in the state, without any type of lock that allows it to operate throughout Brazil.

Flamengo recently renewed its contract with PixBet and it is now valid until 2027. Furthermore, the document states that the company must be regularized with the authorities or the contract may be terminated unilaterally by Mais Querido.

Remember that the amount received by Flamengo from PixBet is a fixed R$465 million, plus R$52 million in prizes for titles, which could increase considerably over the years.
