BNLData: 25 years can no longer be contained solely on a computer screen.
Twenty-five years ago, when BNLData was founded as the first specialized media outlet for lotteries, games, and betting in South America, news about the sector traveled slowly. It arrived by email, newsletter, or through those who had the patience to refresh the page. This Tuesday (September 1st), marking a quarter-century of uninterrupted market coverage, BNLData decided that information can no longer wait for the user to reach it—and launched its own app, developed by Estúdio Sync, to go where the user is: in their pocket, in the palm of their hand, just a touch away.
It is symbolic that the silver anniversary is accompanied not by a nostalgic retrospective, but by a tool designed for what lies ahead. If the first 25 years of BNLData were about following the formation of the Brazilian regulated market — from the prohibition of the jogo do bicho (illegal lottery) and casinos in 1946 to Law 14.790/2023 — the next ones begin with a bet (pardon the pun) on speed, security, and constant presence.
What changes with the app?
The app offers the advantages already expected from the format: faster loading times than a browser, an extra layer of security compared to generic websites, and features always available on the phone screen without needing to open tabs or remember addresses. But the real game-changer lies in one specific feature: push notifications.
Unlike a website or newsletter, which depend on the user actively seeking out the information, push notifications arrive automatically—directly to the device, even with the app closed. For those covering a sector whose regulatory mood changes with each new decree, Supreme Court decision, or Federal Police operation, this is the difference between knowing firsthand and knowing after everyone else.
BNLData: the betting sector in the palm of your hand
With an intuitive interface and features designed for those who live the day-to-day reality of the market — operators, lawyers, regulators, and industry professionals — the app arrives in the Apple and Android app stores, bringing to the mobile format the same authority that has consolidated BNLData as the most relevant and widely read source of information on lotteries, games, sports betting, lottery outlets, bingo, slots, casinos, horse racing, poker, raffles, capitalization, and the illegal numbers game in the country.
Everything the industry needs, all in one place.
Through the app, the reader can follow the latest industry news in real time, highlights from the Editor's Blog , Caixa Lottery results , and BNL TV , with the same videos shown on the website — all gathered on the same screen, without having to navigate between tabs or remember where each section was located.
What the user finds in the app:
⇒ Real-time updates — market news and analysis arrive the instant they happen.
⇒ Detailed analyses — reports and insights to understand industry dynamics and gain a competitive edge in decision-making.
User- friendly interface — navigation designed to make searching for information simpler and faster.
⇒ Personalization — each user configures their notifications and preferences to receive what is most relevant to their business, at the moment they need it.
⇒ Offline access — the new features remain available even without an internet connection.
A newsroom that also legislates through information.
BNLData has never been just a news showcase. Its editor actively participates in the debate on the legalization of gambling in Brazil and produces market analyses that have become a benchmark for decision-makers—from operators to parliamentarians, from regulators to judges. The app is the natural extension of this vocation: to bring to the reader's pocket the same rigor that, for 25 years, has been present on the website's pages.
Twenty-five years after launching its first page, BNLData isn't closing a cycle—it's launching an app. And it invites you to take the betting market with you wherever you go.
