What Law 14.790/2023 says
Article 29 bars operators from granting any advance, bonus or prior advantage, even as a promotion, for the player to bet.
- Deposit bonuses (“100% up to R$ 500”) and sign-up free spins are not allowed at licensed sites.
- Advertising also follows SPA rules, which require responsible-gaming warnings and forbid promising easy winnings.
- Sign-up bonus offers are a strong sign of an unlicensed site.

Aviator’s “Rain”
Aviator has a feature called Rain: free bets dropped into the game chat for players at the table.
Whether Rain is available depends on each operator’s settings. When it exists, the amount and rules appear in the chat itself. It is not a sign-up bonus and never requires a deposit to a third party.
Signs of a fake offer
| Sign | Why it is a warning |
|---|---|
| “300% bonus” or “R$ 1,000 free” | Sign-up bonuses are banned at licensed sites |
| Unlicensed site | Not authorised to operate in Brazil |
| Pix to a private individual | Deposits must go to the operator’s account |
| WhatsApp group that “unlocks bonuses” | Common scam pattern |
| Guaranteed winnings | Banned by advertising rules and impossible in the game |
How to assess any promotion
- Read the full terms on the operator’s site, not in ads.
- Make sure the promotion does not require an upfront deposit to unlock an advantage.
- Check the operator on the official SPA list: see how.
