Brazilian football clubs secure over BR1bn in betting sponsorships in 2025

Investments have surpassed BR1bn ($197m) in 2025 according to reports.
Key Points
- The club with the biggest sponsorship deal is Flamengo, with BR15m
- All Serie A clubs are backed by at least one betting sponsor
For the first time in history, sponsorship investments from betting companies in Brazil’s Serie A have surpassed R$1bn ($197m) in 2025, highlighting the expansion of the country’s regulated betting market.
Last year, 12 out of 20 clubs in the top tier had a betting company as their main sponsor. In 2025, that number rose and all 20 clubs now have deals with companies from the segment. The overall value of contracts has grown more than 30% compared to 2024, boosted by new signings and major renewals.
This marks a historic milestone for Brazilian football. While brands from various sectors have invested in club sponsorships over the decades, betting companies have now become dominant with teams, especially since Brazil introduced clearer law for the industry. With transparent rules, taxation requirements and consumer protection mechanisms now in place, international investors are more confident entering the market.
The regulation of the sector has also made the Brazilian market more competitive, which is reflected in the rising value of sponsorship deals. Among the top contracts in 2025, reports suggest the following:
– Flamengo: BR115m
– Corinthians: BR103m
– Palmeiras: BR100m
– São Paulo: BR78m
– Vasco da Gama: BR70m

With growing legal certainty and increasingly lucrative deals, clubs now benefit from more predictable revenues.
At the same time, betting companies continue to expand their visibility and influence in one of the world’s most passionate football markets.
