Aposta Ganha partners with Netflix to become first gaming company to team up with the streaming giant in Brazil
Aposta Ganha, the fastest-growing Brazilian sports betting and casino site, has scored a groundbreaking agreement to become the first betting brand to exclusively run advertising campaigns in Brazil for Netflix customers.
Rafa Márquez, former player and idol of Barcelona and the Mexican national football team, stars in the 30-second commercial. The concept was developed by the company’s marketing team alongside a Spanish production company. Football’s unmatched excitement and adrenaline are captured perfectly using powerful imagery and an impactful script.
The short film is already being aired and can be seen in two spots within the streaming platform’s basic package, currently the largest in the world. Netflix also leads the market share index for streaming platforms in Brazil, according to JustWatch 2023 Q4 data, which reported the company securing 27% of the market that equates to 66 million users.
Aposta Ganha’s debut advert can be viewed on youtube.
Hugo Baungartner, Aposta Ganha CCO, said: “Working with Rafa Márquez on this beautiful video piece was a joy and the results speak for themselves. Our marketing team has brilliantly captured the essence of the world’s most popular sport that is a major part of Aposta Ganha’s story. Partnering with Netflix is not only a first for the betting industry, but a golden opportunity to showcase our brand in front of millions of viewers.”

LuckBet Launches New TV Commercial Starring Caio Castro on Sportv and Globoplay

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.”
LuckBet: A Responsible and Player-First Betting Platform
As the only betting operator from Mato Grosso officially listed by Brazil’s Ministry of Finance, LuckBet offers a wide range of player-centric features. These include:
-
Unlimited withdrawals
-
24/7 humanized customer support
-
Weekly cashback on losses
LuckBet’s informal, street-smart communication style—rich in slang and expressions familiar to younger audiences—helps it stand out in Brazil’s crowded iGaming market. This distinctive approach is designed to foster a more authentic connection with bettors across all touchpoints.
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.
