Platform practices identified by the company considered illegal and harmful to consumers
Procon-Sp has imposed a fine of $ 1,127,820 on the pixbet betting platform, the main sponsor of Flamengo, after identifying the practices considered abusive and harmful to consumers. This sanction occurred in the face of the detection of problematic clauses in the “terms and conditions” of the company, which placed users at an excessive disadvantage.
Among the infringements found by the consumer protection program, the possibility of a unilateral change of the contract by the company, without a preventive communication to customers. In addition, the platform imposed the impossibility of reimbursement of unused amounts and limited the amounts that consumers could withdraw, thus giving access to their financial resources.
This procon-sp measure aims to promote regulation that creates a safer environment for consumers and online betting operators. By guaranteeing greater transparency and supervision of activities, the objective is to protect consumer rights and ensure that market practices are aligned with the principles of legality and justice.
Sponsor of Flamengo Master
The partnership between Pixbet and Flamengo represents a milestone in the history of the club, as it is the largest main sponsorship ever signed. With an agreement that could produce up to 470 million dollars by 2027, Pixbet prints its brand in the central space of the red-black shirt.
The approval of this sponsorship in 2024 was practically unanimous to the deliberative council: with 136 votes in favor against only two. The previous obligation has already guaranteed a payment of $ 85 million per year, but the renewal has represented a significant increase of $ 115 million from 2025. If the automatic renewal clause is shot in 2027, the club may have $ 125 million per year.
The re -implementation of the values was in a context of internal pressure, since the black black dome was looking for other proposals if Pixbet did not agree with the terms. Looking for better financial conditions, the club was able to convince the company to accept the new conditions. In addition, as part of the contract, a clause has been included in the late 50% if one of the parties decides to stop the contract before the end.
