Legitimuz: Local trust. Global results. Authentically Brazilian
In this article, Brazilian KYC provider Legitimuz shares details of its recent agreement with Flutter Brazil-owned Betnacional and highlights why operators that hesitate to invest in local technology risk losing their competitive edge
Legitimuz has been selected by Betnacional, a brand within the Flutter Brazil ecosystem, as its official KYC partner, to verify the identity of its players. In a market dominated by standardised foreign solutions, Legitimuz has set a new benchmark of the industry as the sole 100% Brazilian KYC provider. ISO 27001 certified, GLI validated and developed exclusively for the igaming industry, Legitimuz ensures security, speed and true compliance in every approved transaction.
Local by design, global in standard
Being local is not just about translating an interface, it’s about understanding the reality of firms that operate in Brazil. It means dealing with unstable networks, validating diverse document formats, anticipating region-specific fraud patterns and removing barriers that slow down user onboarding. This is why Legitimuz doesn’t adapt pre-built technology, it codes every line from scratch to turn local challenges into global-grade performance, with the efficiency only a truly Brazilian company can deliver.
Today, more than 50% of bettors in the regulated market are verified through Legitimuz technology. The platform processes millions of checks every day, with an average verification time of under 30 seconds, a conversion rate above 85% and zero data-leakage incidents, all supported by a compliance engine audited to the world’s highest standards.
Betnacional’s decision to partner with Legitimuz marks a defining moment: consolidating the KYC provider as the technical backbone of trust for the industry, ensuring scalability, speed, robust compliance and reputational assurance for operators in Brazil.
For those looking to grow, the time is now
With regulation under way and global eyes on Brazil, operators that hesitate to invest in local technology risk losing their competitive edge.
“Compliance and scale no longer need to compete. With Legitimuz, operators don’t have to choose between fast approvals and full compliance, they can have both, powered by engineering built specifically for Brazil,” says Fred Justo, director of AML at Legitimuz and former Secretariat of Prizes and Bets (SPA) official.
While some continue to test generic foreign systems, market leaders already understand that true scale in Brazil is achieved by partnering with those that know the country and deliver at a global standard.
