The meeting brought together 40 professionals from the clubs’ legal, communications and marketing departments, as well as executives from companies in the betting sector. Club officials are concerned about the financial impact of the measures, which could impact sponsorship contracts signed with betting companies.

One of the main concerns is Bill 560/2025, which is currently making its way through the council. The proposal prohibits advertising by betting companies at events in the city of São Paulo. This applies to events organised by public or private entities, whether for-profit or non-profit.

The bill prohibits signs, banners, or display panels in arenas, gymnasiums, stadiums and other sports event venues. It also bans advertising on public transport, such as the side panel, exterior or the rear window of buses. The bill imposes a fine of BRL50,000 ($10,000) and a ban on hosting events for up to two years.

Play’n GO has gone live with Lawn n’ Complete Disorder, a 243-ways video slot whose defining feature is structural rather than thematic. The studio has routed its entire feature set through a single Coin symbol.

The design decision matters more than the garden-war premise. Coins can award an Instant Bonus, open Hold & Spin, or launch one of the wheel-driven Bonus Spins modes. That gives the whole feature set one consistent trigger.

That consolidation is the news hook. Rather than spreading activation across scatters, dedicated bonus symbols, and separate triggers, Play’n GO has made one symbol responsible for every route into a feature.

Introduced in 1998, ClubGRANTS was designed to channel a share of gambling-linked profits from gaming clubs back into local communities. This includes health and welfare services as well as community development and sporting clubs. 

According to the Gaming Machine Tax Act 2001, a tax rebate of up to 1.85% of a club’s gaming machine profits is made available to any registered club that records profits of over $1 million (US$715,000) during a tax year. 

This is only possible if the club in question allocates at least 0.75% of prescribed profits over $1 million to community-focused activities and services. These profits make up two-thirds of the ClubGRANTS scheme funding.
