Argentina deputies approve bill to ban online betting ads

[The Buzz]

Argentina is one step closer to banning all online betting advertising.

The Chamber of Deputies overwhelmingly approved the bill, which aims to protect children from gambling harms. However, the Senate will have the final say after considering the impact on stakeholders like football clubs who rely heavily on gambling sponsorships.

From TopNews.com:

Key Provisions of the Federal Ban

1. Comprehensive Advertising Prohibition: The bill prohibits all forms of advertising for online gambling and sports betting across TV, radio, social media, streaming services, and gaming platforms. Public advertising, including billboards, posters, and urban signage, is also banned.

2. Sponsorship Restrictions:
Gambling operators are barred from sponsoring sports teams, such as Boca Juniors (Betsson), River Plate (Codere), and Argentina’s national team (Stake.com).

Sponsorship at stadiums, sports venues, and cultural events like concerts and festivals is explicitly prohibited.

With all of the bans, and closings of iGaming companies in the region, in your opinions, what are the best countries now in LATAM to focus our affiliate efforts on?

LATAM is unstable by definiton. I live here and still don't know what to expect. If I had to choose three countries to focus on right now, I would say Mexico, Colombia, and Peru, but it also depends on what you are promoting.

I agree, I could also add Chile.

I agree, I could also add Chile.

Honest question: Do you work with that market? I considered adding Chile to my previous list as a fourth option, but even though I don’t have concrete data, something feels off to me. I’ve met Chileans and have friends living there, and it gives me the impression of a ticking time bomb. I know Chile is a solid market on paper, but I wouldn’t feel comfortable focusing my efforts there in the long run.
