What the rule actually is in Mexico
Our own reading, not a summary of someone else's
Still governed by the 1947 Federal Games and Draws Act through SEGOB permits, with no standalone online licence: internet betting rides on an existing establishment permit under Article 85 of the regulation. The November 2023 reform banned slot machines outright, abolished the operador figure so only the permit holder may run the business, and tied each permit to a single establishment. Tax is the 2026 story. The IEPS levy on betting jumped from 30% to 50% on 1 January under a decree published 7 November 2025, and it now explicitly reaches foreign operators serving Mexican players over the internet. Payments themselves stay open, with cards, SPEI and crypto all usable and none of Brazil's instrument bans.
How money actually moves
The rails players reach for, in the order that matters locally
- SPEIdominant
instant bank transfer
Banxico instant interbank rail; primary deposit AND withdrawal; CLABE/reference auto-reconciliation is the capability that separates serious providers.
- OXXO Paymajor
vouchers & cash
Cash voucher at 20,000+ stores; deposit-ONLY (pair with SPEI for payouts); direct cash-network access matters.
- CoDi / DiMo
instant bank transfer
Banxico QR/phone instant on SPEI rails; emerging.
