Loterias Caixa

Loterias Caixa is the Brazilian national lottery, run by Caixa Econômica Federal, the state-owned financial services group headquartered in Brasília. It manages the country's principal draw games, including Mega-Sena, Quina, Lotofácil and Loteca, the successor to the old Loteria Esportiva. Mega-Sena has been operated by Caixa since March 1996 and is the largest lottery in Brazil, drawn three times a week. Profits from the federal lotteries are earmarked by law for causes including amateur sport and elementary education. Caixa's lottery monopoly sat alongside the entirely unregulated online betting sector for years, and the 2025 licensing regime was in part an attempt to bring that parallel market inside the same fiscal logic the lotteries have always operated under.
