On Thursday (12), Apostou.com opens the first physical unit that will operate the new video lottery mode in Paraná. The space will offer the still unprecedented instant lottery system in digital format. The company presents the unit as "Bet Shop" with "Video Lotteries" and all bets can only be made with payment via Pix to ensure security and transparency for players.
The game is legalized and regulated by Lottopar, a company that controls the operations of betting and lotteries registered in the state. The establishment will also have a bar selling snacks and appetizers.
Unprecedented until now, the mode enhances the experience of the popular "Scratch Card", traditionally sold in physical format at more than 2,000 points of sale. The digital instant lottery maintains the system of tickets with pre-determined and unalterable results, reinforcing transparency and security for bettors.
Each video lottery terminal is authorized by Lottopar, which carries out the certification and inspection process to ensure that the games offer fair results and are free from fraud.
How to play
Playing is easy and intuitive, just choose the deposit amount at the video lottery terminal, scan the QR Code and make the deposit. Then, press "PLAY" to view the multipliers on the screen. When deciding to end the game, the customer just selects "WITHDRAW". The terminal will identify the Pix used in the CPF format and will carry out the transaction automatically.
The game has finite and irreplaceable results. That is, with each play, a ticket with a predetermined result (awarded or not) is presented and revealed to the bettor. After displaying the result, this ticket is deleted and will no longer be used in that batch or series. Each play has a unique serial number, thus ensuring the probability of winning.
There is no use of physical money on site. All operations occur exclusively by electronic means, without the use of cash, which guarantees more transparency and security for the bettor.
Lottopar informs that video lottery is entertainment and not a way to recover losses or get rich. To play, you must be over 18 years old and have an active CPF, and the only accepted form of payment is Pix, thus the entire system is 100% traceable. Credit cards are not accepted, to avoid indebtedness, nor are cash bets.
With a focus on responsible gaming, each terminal displays a QR Code, allowing the user to verify its authenticity and place of operation. The operation is based on Federal Decree No. 9.327/2018 and follows the standards of GLI-14 certification, ensuring that each ticket is unique and properly assessed.
"With this launch, Apostou.com reaffirms its commitment to innovation and responsibility in the gaming market, bringing to the people of Paraná a modern and safe option for responsible entertainment", says the company.
The new video lottery house is located at Erasto Gaertner Avenue, 2445, in Bacacheri, Curitiba/PR. The opening hours are Monday to Saturday, from 10 am to 10 pm, and on Sunday from 2 pm to 8 pm.
