The partnership encompasses coverage across SBT and N Sports, ensuring the brand maintains a dominant position throughout the tournament via a multi-platform activation strategy.
A Multi-Channel Broadcast Strategy
The newly finalized package guarantees Esportes da Sorte extensive visibility across a variety of media formats. The agreement covers free-to-air television through national SBT coverage and simulcasts, the +SBT streaming platform, and the pay-TV channel N Sports. Beyond traditional broadcasting, the operator will also feature prominently across the broadcasters’ digital ecosystems, including their official websites, YouTube channels, and other online properties.

- Promotional spots and commercial breaks.
- Opening and closing vignettes (idents) for match broadcasts.
- Video inserts during live coverage.
- Sponsorship of a dedicated FIFA World Cup 2026 program airing throughout the competition.
- Editorial content integrated directly into the programming schedule.
Digital Expansion and Brand Goals
In the digital sphere, the operator will be embedded within the official live streams on SBT and N Sports. This ensures that the brand reaches younger demographics and second-screen viewers who consume content online. The collaboration aims to leverage the massive audience mobilization that the World Cup generates in Brazil.
By aligning with the football ecosystem, Esportes da Sorte intends to significantly boost brand recall and frequency, connecting with fans during moments of high emotion and engagement.
This strategic move underscores the operator’s commitment to consolidating its status as a market leader in Brazil, utilizing one of the world’s most-watched sporting events to drive engagement and reinforce its connection to the national passion for football.
Marcela Campos, Vice President of the Esportes Gaming Brasil Group, commented on the strategic value of the partnership:
“The World Cup is a global event that concentrates attention, conversation and excitement on a worldwide scale. In Brazil, this impact translates into one of the greatest moments of audience mobilisation in sport. Being present on SBT’s broadcasts, with consistency and high frequency, is a way to expand and strengthen brand positioning and reinforce Esportes da Sorte’s connection with the experience of following and celebrating football, through communication designed specifically for this context.”
