BMM Testlabs, a globally recognised independent testing lab, has announced a significant milestone: it has earned official accreditation to test systems and games for the Brazilian state of Maranhão. This accreditation opens doors for BMM to operate within a rapidly growing gaming and betting market in the region.
Expanding Reach in the Brazilian Market
The Maranhão accreditation allows BMM Testlabs to test fixed-odds betting systems and lottery platforms in the state, marking another step in the company’s expansion across Brazil. With this development, BMM is now authorised to operate in every Brazilian jurisdiction that has implemented state-level regulations for online fixed-odds betting.
This achievement was made possible through Maranhão Parcerias SA (MAPA/LOTEMA), which issued the official certification. The partnership with MAPA/LOTEMA grants BMM the authority to collaborate with lottery operators in Maranhão, ensuring they meet rigorous compliance and quality standards.
Federal Authorisation Bolsters Credibility
Adding to its regional certifications, BMM Testlabs has also been federally authorised by Brazil’s Secretaria de Prêmios e Apostas. This federal approval extends BMM’s testing capabilities to betting systems, live gaming studios, and online games used by fixed-odds betting operators across Brazil.
Marzia Turrini, BMM’s President of iGaming & Cybersecurity, expressed the company’s pride in this achievement. “We are excited and deeply honoured that the State of Maranhão’s official lottery has entrusted BMM Testlabs with the responsibility of testing products for their new online fixed-odds betting programme. Our focus remains on impartiality, technical expertise, transparency, efficiency, and, above all, integrity,” she stated.
Why Maranhão’s Accreditation Matters
BMM Testlabs’ accreditation in Maranhão isn’t just a bureaucratic win—it signifies the company’s growing influence in Brazil’s gaming sector. As Brazil continues to roll out regulated frameworks for online gaming and sports betting, the need for reliable compliance testing becomes crucial.
Key highlights of what this accreditation enables BMM to do include:
- Testing fixed-odds betting systems to ensure they meet Maranhão’s regulatory standards.
- Conducting end-to-end product compliance testing for lottery platforms.
- Partnering with state lottery operators to ensure transparency and player safety.
With these capabilities, BMM Testlabs is set to play a pivotal role in shaping Maranhão’s regulated gaming market.
