Chile bans betting sponsorship, killing new naming rights deal for top leagues
September 27 – Chile is cracking down on the betting industry in-country. Earlier this month the Supreme Court of Justice declared betting illegal and blocked 23 online betting sites.
Now Bettson’s naming rights deal with the Asociación Nacional de Fútbol Profesional (ANFP), the body in charge of the top Chilean leagues, has been cancelled.
The sponsorship loss is a big deal for ANFP. Bettson were paying a reported $2.5 million for the first season of the deal with that amount expected to increase to $8 million over the three-year term.
