Countries Where Online Gambling is Legal:
-
Colombia:

Argentina and Brazil:
In Argentina, the regulation of online gambling is decentralized, with each province having the authority to legalize it. As a result, mobile betting is now accessible in 14 of 24 jurisdictions, contributing to the country's $2.4 billion iGaming industry. Meanwhile, Brazil, Latin America’s largest market, authorized online gambling in 2018, though its licensing processes have been slow. The industry is projected to surpass $1 billion in the near future. -
Mexico, Paraguay, and Peru:
In Mexico, online betting services are offered through land-based operators, though many players prefer offshore platforms that offer enhanced security and better game options. Paraguay has legalized most forms of online gambling, generating approximately $4 million annually. Meanwhile, Peru permits slot machines and table games online but restricts sports betting and lottery activities. -
Costa Rica and Panama:
These Central American nations have long served as hubs for online casinos. Costa Rica hosts nearly 400 gambling businesses, though many do not cater to local residents. Panama, known for its business-friendly environment, offers low tax rates and licensing fees, attracting several operators who serve international markets.
