Coljuegos recently published on its website a letter where they give answer to a request to conduct a feasibility study of Fantasy and E-Sports gambling games under current regulations.
The entity carried out this legal and technical feasibility analysis to determine if the operation of the Fantasy and E-Sports games conforms to the current offer of the regulation of internet-operated games established in the Agreements 04 of May 24, 2016, modified by Agreement 02 of May 28, 2019.
In this document, Coljuegos explains that in E-Sports, the player bets against the game operator, obtaining the right to the prize in the case of guessing the forecast on which he bets and being the prize the result of multiplying the value of the bet, for the coefficient that the operator has previously validated for the forecast made, that is to say “bets of counterpart and cross or exchange bet”, which are defined in Article 3 of Agreement 04 of 2016
On the other hand, Fantasy games, unlike E-Sports, is a competition game between players, who must form their own team individually by choosing real athletes or athletes of any team sport, who play in a championship, tournament, cup, league or season. Here the player must pay an inscription to enter the competition with his team, and this inscription that must have a fixed value will be the bet issued in order to participate.
In addition, in this game you do not bet on the final result of a team (win, lose or draw), you bet on the real and individual performance of the athletes or athletes chosen in the matches that are part of the Fantasy event, which will be scored positive or negatively, according to the rules established by the operator, the winner will have the highest score at the end of the event.
Thus, and according to the analysis set forth in the document, Coljuegos considers the operation of the E-Sports and Fantasy games viable within the current offer of the game stipulated in Agreement 04 of 2016, modified by Agreement 02 of 2019.
Finally, it should be noted that as in the other games of the online offer, operators must certify before any of the laboratories accredited by Coljuegos, the functionality, safety and integration into their respective technical system of these games in the light of what that the entity establishes. In addition, the regulator stipulates in this document that the sending and reporting of the data will be done following the data model and provisions required by Coljuegos in the technical documents that are part of the regulation of the novel type games operated by the internet
Finally, we leave at your disposal the complete document in SPANISH.
