Deadline to withdraw money from bets ends this Monday
Users have until 23h59 on this Monday (5th) to withdraw money from bets. R$ 1.33 billion still awaits redemption on the platforms.
Those who still have money in betting accounts have until 23:59 this Monday (5) to request the withdrawal of the amounts directly from the platforms. The deadline marks the last day for voluntary redemption prior to the closure of websites and applications.
As of Tuesday, the platforms cease to operate according to the timetable established for the implementation of Medida Provisória No. 1,394/2026, which prohibited the exploitation, offer, intermediation and advertising of fixed-quote bets in the country.
According to data updated by the Ministry of Finance on Monday, approximately R$ 1.33 billion still awaits rescue on platforms.
Since September 26, the outstanding amount has fallen by about R$ 775.6 million. In the same period, the number of CPFs with a positive balance increased from 28.9 million to approximately 26.54 million.
Users must verify all accounts
The guidance is that users access all the platforms in which they have registration, verify the existence of balance and request withdrawal.
Those who have a registration in more than one company should consult individually on each platform.
Even amounts considered small must be withdrawn before the end of the term.
Most accounts have less than R$ 10
According to the data disclosed, about 92% of accounts with a positive balance have less than R$ 10.
More than 96% of the accounts have amounts less than R$ 25.
Despite this, a small portion concentrates most of the resources still available. Approximately 1% of the accounts hold 80% of the total balance, while 3.4% concentrate 90% of the values.
Already about 8.3% of the accounts correspond to 96% of all the money still available for return.
The numbers consider existing accounts on the platforms. The same CPF can have a registration and balance in more than one company.
What happens to those who don’t take it out to this day?
Those who do not request a withdrawal by 23:59 this Monday do not automatically lose their money.
The remaining amounts will enter into a restitution process carried out by the financial institutions.
Between October 7 and 8, companies must inform banks of the values that remained on the platforms, identified by CPF.
Between October 9 and 14, financial institutions will have to provide the return of resources to users.
In cases where there is any impediment to payment, the amounts will be forwarded, from October 14, to the Federal Economic Fund, which will be responsible for the restitution.
