Latin America’s iGaming and payments markets are no longer emerging, they’re accelerating at unprecedented speed. Brazil’s regulated online gambling market alone is projected to grow from USD 2.5 billion in 2024 to USD 12.3 billion by 2028, driven by billions flowing through sports betting platforms, digital casinos, and cross-border payments. With this rapid expansion comes a pressing need for innovation, operational resilience, and secure, scalable payments.
SiGMA Americas 2025 brought together the region’s key players; operators, regulators, BetTech pioneers, investors, and fintech innovators, all in São Paulo for a four-day summit that merged the Brazilian iGaming Summit (BiS) with the global influence of SiGMA Group. Over 17,500 attendees and 600 exhibitors explored emerging tech, compliance solutions, and payments orchestration strategies crucial for thriving in this evolving market.
Demonstrating our expansion at SiGMA Americas Expo
At the heart of the event was Paysecure, joining forces with our partners at a55 at booth N115, showcasing how our orchestration platform transforms complex payment flows into seamless operations. We presented a holistic view of payments management, including:
- Global connectivity with over 500+ PSPs and acquirers, supporting major card networks, wallets, and region-specific payment methods like Pix (Brazil) and SPEI (Mexico).
- Smart routing that automatically optimises each transaction path to maximize approval rates, minimise costs, and reduce failed transactions in real time.
- Intelligence dashboards and analytical reporting that provide actionable insights across transaction type, geography, currency, and 360 User Trust Score metrics to proactively detect fraud and mitigate risk.
- Automation and scalability allowing operators to manage high-volume pay-outs, cascading failures, and multi-market settlements with minimal manual intervention.
Across the summit, it became clear that payments are not just infrastructure, they are strategy. By combining orchestration, global connectivity, intelligence reporting, dashboards, User Trust Score, and smart routing, Paysecure empowers operators to increase conversion rates, reduce operational friction, and scale confidently across LATAM and beyond.
“We’ve seen a significant increase in demand for orchestration solutions in LATAM. With our extensive integrations to various processors, APMs, and the smart features and algorithms we’ve developed, we’re in a strong position to deliver real value to major players in the region.
In particular, with the instability around Pix, our Pix cascading feature stands out. Instead of having to manually switch providers and risk losing millions during a 15-minute downtime, our system can automatically manage the failover, ensuring uninterrupted processing and protecting businesses’ revenue.
Another key advantage is our advanced pay-outs module. It allows operators to streamline pay-outs to players and affiliates, and even generate additional revenue from those operations. With automation, optimisation, and smart routing, we turn pay-outs into a strategic advantage.”

Key lessons from SiGMA Americas 2025 The event underscored several critical insights for operators and payments providers in LATAM:
- Regulation drives innovation: Compliance isn’t a barrier; it’s a catalyst for smarter payments infrastructure.
- Local knowledge matters: Understanding regional payment behaviors, like Pix adoption in Brazil, is key to maintaining uptime and maximizing revenue.
- Data and insights are strategic assets: Leveraging dashboards, intelligence reporting, and User Trust Scores empowers operators to proactively manage risk, optimize routing, and enhance player experience.
- Orchestration is a competitive advantage: Operators that unify and automate payment flows can reduce failures, scale faster, and focus on growth rather than firefighting.
