EP616: No anonymous users: inside Uruguay's lottery overhaul

Every online player registered and every sales agent certified: Uruguay is raising the bar for its lottery sector. Speaking with reporter Maria Fernanda Arrubla at SiGMA North America 2026 in Mexico City, Marcelo Visconti, National Director of Loterías y Quinielas, the state body that runs and oversees Uruguay's lotteries, reveals how new digital registration and identity verification rules introduced in January 2026 are reshaping operations. He explains how player data strengthens compliance, why top-level World Lottery Association responsible gaming certification is now required for all agents, and why prize payments and money flows demand constant oversight under Uruguay's state-run model.
