H2bet has closed the sponsorship of the Club World Cup broadcast with CazéTV. The sports betting company will have actions in all tournament games, starting with Botafogo x Pachuca, this Wednesday (11), at 2:00 PM, in the quarterfinals.
Whoever wins the duel between Brazilians and Mexicans will face Al Ahly in the semifinal that will take place on Saturday (14). In the final, Real Madrid awaits its opponent in the match on December 18, Wednesday.
H2bet had already been the official sponsor of the Eurocup broadcast on CazéTV between June and July this year. After great success, the parties closed a new partnership for the Club World Cup.
Also this year, H2bet has already closed several other sponsorships, such as Podpah, Porsche Cup, Batalha da Aldeia, Brazilian Squash Championship, Noronha Weekend, and other parties. In addition, H2bet has the player Marcelo, idol of Real Madrid and Fluminense, and the presenters Igão and Mítico, from Podpah, as ambassadors.
H2bet is already authorized by the Secretariat of Prizes and Bets of the Ministry of Finance (SPA-MF) to make the payment of the concession fee, following the process of regulating the sports betting market in Brazil.
Starting its operation in the poker segment more than 16 years ago, Grupo H2 counted on pioneering, professionalism, and credibility to regularize the game in Brazil and establish itself as one of the largest clubs in the country in the segment, with headquarters in São Paulo, Curitiba, and Campinas.
In 2022, Grupo H2 founded H2bet, a betting site aimed at entertaining its audience and committed to responsible gaming.

The Full Court of the Audit Court of Goiás endorsed this Wednesday (11) the Precautionary Measure 18/2024, which suspended the bidding process of the Goiânia City Hall for hiring a company that would operate the municipal lottery service. In his vote, in addition to the signs of irregularities, councilor Fabrício Motta considered the fact that the current administration is ending and a new contract, to be fulfilled by the new municipal administration, “would not be legitimate”.
The precautionary measure was issued last Friday (6), after allegations of irregularities, presented by a company interested in the bidding. According to the complainant, the notice contained flaws in the disclosure and in the requirements for technical and financial qualification.
In his vote, in addition to the signs of irregularities, councilor Fabrício Motta considered the fact that the current administration is ending and a new contract, to be fulfilled by the administration that begins on January 1st, “would not be legitimate”.
The vote also includes the lack of a Term of Reference or Basic Project in the notice or on the Transparency Portal, which contradicts federal legislation. Other problems detected were the presence of subjective criteria for judgment, such as the requirement for “best methodology” or “technical knowledge”, without due technical justification or clear parameters for evaluation.
It also drew attention to the fact that, between the request for publication and the announcement of the bidding notice, only two days elapsed, that is, the entire process took place between November 19 and 21.
The bidding, scheduled to have taken place last Monday (9), aimed to hire a company to manage and control the municipal lottery for a period of 10 years, with an estimated gross revenue of R$ 43.2 million for the first year. The value was calculated based on the analysis of the national market and international experiences.
The bidding modality was “lowest price”, but would consider the company that offered the highest percentage of transfer to the municipality, with a minimum of 51.33%. Among the types of games planned were the purchase of numbered tickets, sports betting, choosing numbers for drawing, and instant prizes.
With the endorsement of the precautionary measure by the Plenary, the Goiânia City Hall has a period of 15 (fifteen) days to present a defense. After this period, the documents will be sent for analysis by the Secretariat of External Control of Contracts.
