Coljuegos, Colombia’s national gambling regulator, says BetPlay and Súper Astro, both part of the Corredor Empresarial group, generated COP 347.587 billion in monopoly revenue during 2025. According to the regulator, that money was directed to the national health system and came in 11% above the level recorded for the same products in 2024.
The pace has not slowed down to start the new year. Between January and the first half of March 2026, the two products had already generated around COP 106.259 billion, a figure Coljuegos reported was 1.56% more than the same period a year before.
The Numbers Behind the Momentum
Coljuegos attributes this growth to the rise of so-called “novel games,” including Súper Astro and online betting. BetPlay, in particular, processed COP 5.5 trillion in player deposits for 2025, while also generating COP 745.594 billion in VAT. Súper Astro, meanwhile, reported COP 754.820 billion in sales throughout the year.
These figures combined illustrate why the regulator continues to present legal gaming as having implications beyond the traditional business sphere. In the Colombian model, these products are also how money is funneled to public services such as health funding. This partially explains why Coljuegos is using growth-oriented language to again emphasize the risks of illegal operators.
Expansion Plans Come With Tighter Control
The regulator has also been working to secure a longer runway for Súper Astro. In June 2025, Coljuegos announced that the game was forecast to produce sales of more than COP 4.1 trillion over five years, with approximately COP 781 billion in additional funds transferred to the country’s subsidized health system over the same period. The announcement also indicated that Consorcio Interventoria Itecoplan had been hired to monitor the game’s technical, financial, and legal operations across the country’s 32 departments.
Beyond reporting solid revenue generated from licensed products, Colombia is also strengthening oversight of one of the country’s most significant gaming products. So, if regulated gaming is expected to keep supporting public finances, supervision will need to keep pace with growth.
