Pursuant to the Agreement, Nuvei has agreed to sponsor ESE’s K1CK esports team for the upcoming 2021 season, including jersey logo placement, inclusion in digital assets and related support, plus providing integration of the Company’s payment processing technology across ESE’s ecommerce and esports channels.
The agreement combines Nuvei’s market leadership and proven best practices in gaming and esports payment solutions, including support for over 450 alternative payment methods and 150 currencies in over 200 global markets, with ESE Entertainment’s wholly owned team K1CK, which has a 20-year track record of esports excellence.
