Full-service digital and cloud infrastructure provider to support customers launching in the fast-growing, emerging regulated Brazilian market with its cutting-edge solutions

Continent 8 Technologies, the award-winning managed hosting, connectivity, cloud and cybersecurity provider to the global iGaming and online sports betting industry, is set to launch in Brazil. This strategic expansion aims to address growing customer demand in this rapidly emerging market. The move comes in anticipation of the market’s quick progression towards a comprehensive regulation of its online offering, with an expected launch in the summer of 2024.

Its move into Brazil strengthens its position in the wider Latin America region, where it has taken an ambitious first-to-market approach to deliver tailored solutions to customers in the likes of Colombia, Peru and Puerto Rico. Brazil adds to a private network spanning more than 100 locations across the world, making it one of the Top 20 best connected networks globally.

Operators and suppliers in Brazil will be able to benefit from Continent 8’s full suite of innovative and reliable digital and cloud infrastructure solutions including a Public Cloud, a scalable and cost-effective offering, with a usage-based commercial model to suit the customer.

Customers will also be able to access its Gaming Exchange, a powerful private internet that offers unrivalled speed, capacity, and security, as well as a full suite of cybersecurity solutions designed to combat the ever-changing threat landscape.

Cybersecurity will be a major concern for both operators and suppliers making a move in Brazil as it is a hotbed for cyber-attacks, in addition to the iGaming and online sports betting industry being one of the most vulnerable to attack ahead of healthcare and finance.

Luana Monje, Sales Executive at Continent 8 Technologies, said: “Brazil looks set to be a hugely significant market and one that our customers are keen to explore.

“Digital and cloud infrastructure is the foundation of any successful online business, and we are delighted to be launching in Brazil to support new and existing customers with our solutions and services as they make their move in the market.”

Continent 8 has strategically positioned itself with certified operations in various locations across Latin America. This recent expansion into the Brazilian territory is integral to Continent 8’s long-term Latin American and global growth strategy as the company looks to deliver essential local, technical, and regulatory support in each new and emerging market.

Michael Tobin, Founder and CEO of Continent 8 Technologies, added: “For more than 25 years, we have been supporting customers as they launch into new and growing markets, and we couldn’t be more excited to be doing this in Brazil.

“This is a market that offers tremendous potential to both operators and suppliers, but they must have the right foundation in place to maximise the opportunities on the table. Continent 8 has the experience, expertise, and solutions to help businesses do just that.”

The Brazilian sports betting brand doubles down on its national presence with a humorous new campaign spotlighting customer benefits, responsible gaming, and celebrity appeal.

One of Brazil’s rising names in the online betting industry, LuckBet, has launched a new nationwide advertising campaign featuring acclaimed actor and motorsport enthusiast Caio Castro. The commercial, which blends humor with strategic brand messaging, is now airing on Globoplay and will debut on Sportv.

The witty commercial stars Caio Castro in a creative split-role talk show, where he plays both the host and the guest. While only one version of him gets to talk (the host, of course), the dialogue cleverly introduces LuckBet’s key strengths—focusing on entertainment, trust, and unique player benefits.

“Caio Castro communicates our message with natural charisma and humor, while staying aligned with our brand’s core values: entertainment, simplicity, and responsibility,” said Ivan Dutra, CEO of LuckBet. “This new commercial is fast-paced, engaging, and truly represents who we are as a company.”

Celebrity-Driven Brand With Social Impact

Since its founding in 2021, LuckBet, headquartered in Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, has rapidly grown its reputation through high-profile partnerships and sponsorships, including support for Cuiabá EC football club. Alongside Caio Castro, the brand also works with rapper PKFreestyle and sports journalist Isa Pagliari to broaden its appeal.

Importantly, LuckBet is a strong advocate for Responsible Gaming, offering tools such as self-exclusion, reality checks, and integrations with international support organizations like Gambling Therapy and GambleAware. The company adheres strictly to Brazil’s 2025 gambling regulations, operating transparently under newly defined federal guidelines.
