Over R$1 billion in balances from betting platform users has been returned to them. Consequently, the current balance, which still needs to be transferred following the ban on online betting, has fallen from R$1.2 billion to R$159 million, according to data provided by the cited source.

Impact of the Refunds

The refunds represent a significant reduction in the amount still awaiting transfer, dropping from R$1.2 billion to R$159 million. This remaining sum stays pending until the transfer process, mandated by the ban, is completed.

Next Steps

Users are awaiting the completion of transfers for the remaining undelivered balances, while authorities monitor compliance with the regulations related to the online betting ban.
