SkillOnNet and Habanero expand partnership to capture Brazil’s thriving iGaming market

Global online gaming operator SkillOnNet has announced the expansion of its long-standing partnership with slot specialist Habanero into the newly regulated Brazilian market. The move marks a strategic step forward as both companies seek to solidify their presence in one of the world’s most promising iGaming jurisdictions.

Under the agreement, Habanero’s popular portfolio of slot and table games is now live on PlayUZU.bet.br and BacanaPlay.bet.br, two SkillOnNet-powered platforms that launched earlier this year following the introduction of Brazil’s regulated online gaming framework on January 1, 2025.

Players in Brazil can now enjoy top-performing titles such as Hot Hot Fruit, Santa’s Village, and the newly released Love & Riches Eldorado, as well as Habanero’s innovative progressive jackpot game Jackpot Race™, known for its algorithm-driven instant prize drops.

Brazil’s online gaming sector is expected to generate $2.9 billion in gross revenue this year, with projections reaching $6.3 billion by 2028, according to data from Vixio Regulatory Intelligence. The market’s rapid expansion has made it a prime target for major global operators and content providers.

“Expanding into Brazil with a trusted partner like SkillOnNet is a major milestone for us,” said Arcangelo Lonoce, Head of Business Development at Habanero. “The market is brimming with potential, and we’re excited to bring our most loved games to a new audience.”

Jani Kontturi, Head of Games at SkillOnNet, emphasized the importance of the collaboration: “Brazil is one of the most dynamic and fast-moving markets in global iGaming. Our extended partnership with Habanero enables us to offer premium, localized content to Brazilian players, aligning with our commitment to deliver world-class entertainment tailored to regional preferences.”

With this latest rollout, SkillOnNet continues to reinforce its position as an early mover in Brazil’s regulated space while strengthening its content offering through strategic partnerships.
