The Malta FA recently announced a sleeve-sponsorship deal with the gaming-friendly account and payment providers Xace as official payment partners of the Senior National Team and U21s.

As a banking alternative, Xace offers a range of online account options across multi-currency, FX, and cross-border payments tailored to the iGaming markets.

The two-year sleeve-sponsorship deal runs until 2024, covering two major UEFA competitions with the Senior National Team, namely the UEFA NATIONS LEAGUE and the UEFA EURO 2024.

Commenting on the addition of the new corporate sponsor, Malta FA President Bjorn Vassallo said ‘Xace’s determination to partner with the Association through sports sponsorship is very interesting. This is a hugely exciting partnership with a forward-looking payment institution, which enables access to seamless payment solutions for many brands within Malta.’

CEO of Xace David Hodkinson added ‘As Xace looks forward to continuing expanding across Malta and the EU, we are very proud to partner with an ever-evolving team such as Malta. With gaming and football being a massive part of Xace and Malta, this deal is an exciting opportunity for us both.’
