The Australian National Rugby League (NRL) has announced a massive three-year tie-in with Brisbane-based crypto exchange Swyftx, that offers trading services for nearly 300 digital assets.

The deal is understood to be of several million dollars adding to Crypto.com’s tie in with the AFL, worth AU$25 million.

The NRL has announced that the deal will include signage promoting Swyftx at big matches, including the finals series, State of Origin matches and all-star matches.

The NRL’s controversial video review board will also be renamed “The Swyftx Bunker” for the 2023 season.

The NRL also has an option to renew the deal for a fourth-year to the end of 2026.

On Thursday, NRL chief executive Andrew Abdo also said Swyftx could potentially promote the game to a wide audience.

The Swyftx deal is just another example of Crypto partnerships increasingly creeping into Australian sport, with deals already made in a number of European and US leagues, teams and venues.

Last year, Crypto.com signed the rights to rename LA Lakers home venue, previously The Staples Center.

Crypto.com also recently featured an advertisement with movie actor, Matt Damon.
