Estelarbet, Chile’s leading betting site, is proud to introduce Chilean soccer legend Arturo Vidal as its new brand ambassador. The alliance with Vidal, the Chilean with the most titles in history, marks an important milestone for Estelarbet, as he will exclusively promote its entertaining variety of online casino games, spread responsible gaming and provide an impactful gaming experience. Within the strategic agreement, it was established that the sports betting and online casino will include new branded content activations, face-to-face events and community outreach with the widely known “King”.

Sebastián Salazar, CEO of the brand commented: “It is an honor to welcome a true King of Soccer to the Estelarbet crew. We are excited to have Arturo Vidal associated with the brand. I’m sure his presence will help us generate greater awareness that soccer, sports betting, and online casino are all a form of entertainment, as long as they are done responsibly.”

Estelarbet celebrates the Chilean heritage and the genuine love for online gambling that unites them with the soccer player, both being a real case of success on the national and international playing field. His career, which includes truly stellar moments such as his time in the golden generation, being the two-time champion of America with the Chilean national team, being the Chilean soccer player who won the most consecutive First Division leagues, winning 1 title in all the teams he has played, makes him an inspiring figure and idol of the sport at a national and international level.

Jimena Agudelo, Marketing Manager of Estelarbet said: “Our goal will always be to create exceptional and legendary experiences and who better to represent us than a true star like Arturo. His passion for the game, his dedication and commitment are the perfect reflection of the values we defend at Estelarbet. Without a doubt, he is the best strategic partner we have chosen to represent and increase the visibility of the brand not only in Chile, but also in Latin America.”

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.

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.

“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.”
