Inter Becomes the Official Remittances Partner of New York City Football Club

 Inter&Co, a leading digital bank offering financial and non-financial services to more than 22 million customers in US and Brazil, announced today that it became an official new partner of the New York City Football Club (NYCFC).

The NYCFC is one of 28 teams that compete in the Major League Soccer (MLS) in US. As an Official Remittances Partner to NYCFC, Inter will offer unique fan experiences throughout the 2023 season. New York City is home to 6.5 million soccer fans, the largest base in US. With a talented contingent of Brazilian players in the First Team, including Talles Magno, Gabriel Pereira, Thiago Andrade, Heber Araujo, and José Kléberson, NYCFC’s partnership with the Brazilian-based company is the Club’s latest tie to the Latin American country. The partnership with NYCFC marks Inter’s first major partnership in the US following the expansion of its offering in the country with the acquisition earlier in the year of a remittance fintech company and the transfer of its listing to NASDAQ in June.

Andres Gonzalez, NYCFC Vice President of Partnerships, said: “NYCFC is committed to increasing access to soccer to underserved communities. Similarly, our new partners at Inter are committed to making its services accessible to everyone. We are thrilled to partner with a global brand and like-minded company such as Inter.”

Priscila Salles, CMO of Inter&Co, stated: “We are very excited to partner with the NYCFC, not only for what they represent as one of the leading MLS teams, but also as a way to connect more meaningfully with the Brazilian and Latino communities in the US. Our commitment to making money remittances affordable and accessible to everyone resonates deeply with NYCFC values of inclusion and community.”

Inter’s remittance business services are currently available for cross-border payments originating in the United States, Brazil and Canada to more than 60 destination countries. As part of its expansion, Inter is focusing on consolidating its remittances and cross-border payments for Brazilians living in the US and for those traveling abroad, as well as expanding to other underserved immigrant populations.
