PayBrokers just scored a significant nod in Brazil’s iGaming space. The payment solutions provider has been named a finalist in two standout categories at the BiS Awards 2025: Best Responsible Gaming Initiative and Best Payment Method. For a company that’s been pushing boundaries quietly behind the scenes, this recognition speaks volumes.
The BiS Awards shine a light on the biggest changemakers in Brazil’s regulated gaming and sports betting industry. And for PayBrokers, these nominations might just be the start of something bigger.
The Two Nominations That Matter
Recognition in two very different but equally important categories gives PayBrokers something to brag about—and with good reason.
The nod for Best Responsible Gaming Initiative shows that PayBrokers isn’t just about moving money; it’s focused on protecting players. This is becoming a non-negotiable in Brazil, where the sports betting market has grown fast but not always with the right safety nets in place.
Then there’s the Best Payment Method category. That one’s a bit more technical but just as important. Payments can make or break the user experience in gaming. Nobody wants lag, confusion, or hidden fees when placing bets. The fact that PayBrokers is getting recognized here means its tech is standing out.
Brazil’s Betting Boom Isn’t Slowing Down
Brazil is in the middle of a betting boom, and things are only getting hotter.
With regulation finally finding its footing and major players eyeing the market, reliable payment methods and player protections have never been more critical. Just last year, Brazil legalized fixed-odds sports betting under Law No. 14,790/2023, opening the door for companies like PayBrokers to expand.
The numbers are no joke either. According to the Brazilian Ministry of Finance, the online betting sector moved R$120 billion in 2023 alone. That’s more than double what it did in 2022. And where there’s money, there’s scrutiny.
One sentence here.
Now companies are being asked to do more than just offer a platform—they need to take real responsibility for how they operate.
Trio Pagamentos Might Be the Secret Sauce
One of the key tools in PayBrokers’ growing arsenal? Trio Pagamentos.
The company’s advanced technology has been cited by PayBrokers as a core reason for its recent progress. While details remain under wraps, Trio’s infrastructure reportedly plays a big role in ensuring fast, safe, and transparent transactions. That’s exactly what regulators—and players—are asking for.
It’s also a signal that partnerships and tech collaborations are no longer optional in this market. They’re necessary for survival.
Here’s what PayBrokers says has changed since onboarding Trio’s tech:
-
Reduced transaction delays by up to 70%
-
Improved fraud detection using AI-backed algorithms
-
Streamlined onboarding for partner platforms
It’s not magic. Just better tech behind the curtain.
Responsible Gaming Isn’t Just a Buzzword Anymore
This part matters more than most people think.
Responsible gaming used to be something companies said to check a box. Now it’s becoming central to long-term trust. PayBrokers’ nomination in this area means it’s going beyond the basics.
And they’re not alone. Brazil has seen a wave of new legislation meant to put more pressure on gaming firms to implement real safety tools.
Here’s a look at the kinds of initiatives BiS is rewarding:
Initiative Type | Description | Compliance Requirement |
---|---|---|
Player Verification | Real-time identity checks before deposits | Mandatory |
Deposit Limits | Optional caps on daily/weekly spending | Strongly Encouraged |
Self-Exclusion Tools | Players can block themselves from the platform | Legally Required |
Responsible Gaming Education | In-app content to warn about addictive behaviors | Voluntary but encouraged |
These programs aren’t just for optics. They’re starting to define which companies last and which fade away.
Competition Is Tight, But PayBrokers Has Momentum
The BiS Awards are no popularity contest. They’re judged by industry insiders who know what real impact looks like.
PayBrokers is up against some heavy hitters this year, especially in the Best Payment Method category. Local fintechs and international brands are all gunning for that top spot. But PayBrokers has something many don’t: a strong mix of regulatory compliance, user experience, and smart partnerships.
Two paragraphs here.
And while there’s no guarantee of a win, the nominations alone send a message—PayBrokers isn’t here to play small.
What This Means for the Industry
This isn’t just a moment for PayBrokers. It’s a sign that the Brazilian betting market is maturing. Quickly.
We’re starting to see a shift where payment and security aren’t just background operations—they’re front and center. That shift makes room for companies like PayBrokers to rise fast, provided they keep delivering.
The BiS Awards might be one event, but for the players in this space, they’re a spotlight. And this year, PayBrokers is standing right in the center of it.
