The award was sponsored by BR Distribuidora, with the 2002 edition having a "BR" in its name;[5] in 2003, however, there was no sponsor.[7] In 2004, it gained "TAM" in its name since TAM Airlines (now LATAM Airlines Brasil) became the award sponsor.[8] From 2008 to 2009 its sponsorship was provided by Vivo.[9][10] From 2010 onward it has no company sponsoring it. In December 2023, the award was officially renamed to the Prêmio Grande Otelo from its 23rd edition and beyond, in a tribute to Grande Otelo.[11][12]
