BIG3 Partnership with MoonPay
BIG3 announced a partnership with MoonPay, the leading global crypto payments infrastructure provider, to facilitate the purchase of the league’s NFTs.
The NFTs were released Saturday for selected Discord members. These NFTs offer ownership-like benefits via two-tier options comprising 12,000 editions – 1,000 for each of the league’s twelve teams that include 25 Fire priced at $25,000 each and 975 Gold priced at $5,000 each.
MoonPay facilitates all payments for NFT purchases, lowering the barriers for first-time NFT buyers to participate in the drop.
BIG3 co-founder, Jeff Kwatinetz said:
“We are excited to partner with MoonPay on our trailblazing ownership stake opportunity for fans to join.” “MoonPay makes buying NFT’s easier for everyone and they will be a tremendous resource for our NFT Drop this weekend. I hope this excites all fans to get in on the action.”
However, MoonPay’s suite of payments infrastructure products provides a seamless way for people to buy and sell cryptocurrencies and NFTs. Its design brings the easy-to-use experience consumers have come to expect from tech, allowing users to buy and sell digital assets and NFTs via credit and debit cards; Apple, Google or Samsung Pay; or bank accounts.
This announcement follows the landmark purchase of three BIG3 Team Fire-Tier allotments by renowned entrepreneurs, investors, and leaders of NFT communities DeGods, DogeCoin/MyDoge, and Krause House.
Ivan Soto-Wright, CEO and Co-founder of MoonPay said:
“Web3 is radically changing the way we approach the business of sports and BIG3 is helping to lead the way.” “This is the beginning of a creator economy renaissance. We’re honored to work with BIG3 to help onboard the world to Web3.”
