Likewise, the crypto exchange will be offering its customers opportunities to participate in live matches in Qatar and acquire exclusive rewards presumably by attending the sports event.
Chief Commercial Officer of FIFA Kay Madati spoke on the partnership with Crypto.com, stating:
"Crypto.com has already demonstrated a commitment to supporting top-tier teams and leagues, major events and iconic venues across the world, and there is no platform bigger, or with a greater reach and cultural impact, than FIFA’s global platform of football."
Starting November 21st, at the beginning of FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022, Crypto.com advertisements will be appearing in soccer stadiums within the country, bringing digital asset awareness to sports fans.
This isn’t the first time that Crypto.com made a sponsorship deal with a sports organization. Back in January, the cryptocurrency exchange teamed up with an LA-based women’s football club Angel City, and the Australian Women’s Football League.
