BMM Testlabs has been approved to test and certify land-based games, online games, and betting systems for fixed-odds betting by the Secretária de Prêmios e Apostas Substituta do Ministério da Fazenda in Brazil for the country’s lottery operators.
The company will provide its full suite of gaming product testing and certification services to support the newly established national regulatory framework, set to turn Brazil in one of the world’s largest regulated gaming markets
Marzia Turrini, BMM’s President of Digital Gaming, Security, and Inspections, said: “We are honored to have received our federal license from the Secretária de Prêmios e Apostas Substituta do Ministério da Fazenda.
“This milestone reflects our commitment to serving suppliers and Brazilian operators by providing the highest level of testing services and support to ensure that Brazil’s newly regulated gaming market is launched quickly and successfully, with a focus on integrity and protecting the gaming industry and all who play.”
In addition to this federal accreditation, BMM has already been authorized to perform compliance testing and certification in the three Brazilian states that have recently regulated iGaming and sports betting — Rio de Janeiro, Paraiba, and Paraná. These three states are all in the process of granting operators’ licenses, which will allow operators to provide fixed-odds sports betting, casino games, and games of skill.
BMM is establishing a local laboratory from which the company will provide its full suite of compliance services and solutions, including pre-compliance testing, customized security audits, geolocation testing, and software quality assurance.
“This exciting milestone is the result of BMM’s exceptional service to the global gaming industry, its commitment to the Latin American market for more than 16 years, and the strong partnerships it has forged with regulators throughout the region,” said the company.
The company offers its compliance services throughout Latin America, with offices in Argentina, Peru, and soon Brazil. “The company’s unparalleled understanding of the region’s technical compliance requirements, its high-quality product testing, and dedicated local customer support services ensure client confidence in their choice of a testing laboratory,” BMM said.
Turrini said: “We look forward to partnering with operators and suppliers to provide our best-in-class compliance and certification services, with a focus on quality, speed, value, and player protection.
“We will offer our extensive expertise to suppliers seeking more than just a certification provider; BMM will be a trusted partner to help suppliers enter this expansive new market in Brazil, which is the largest country in Latin America, the tenth largest economy in the world, and could become one of the largest gaming markets on the globe.”
