Everton Football Club, one of the founding members of the Premier League, has entered into a partnership with Corpay, naming the global corporate payments provider its Official Foreign Exchange (FX) Supplier. The agreement will see Corpay’s Cross-Border business provide solutions to help Everton manage its foreign exchange exposure and streamline global payment processes.

The partnership is designed to support the football club’s day-to-day business needs by utilising Corpay’s centralised platform for managing international transactions. This development is expected to enhance Everton’s financial operations as the club prepares for its final season at Goodison Park and the move to its new waterfront stadium.

“The Corpay Cross-Border team is honoured to be named the Official FX Supplier of Everton FC, one of the oldest and most successful clubs in English football,” said Brad Loder, Chief Marketing Officer at Corpay Cross-Border Solutions.

“With our strong focus on growing the Corpay brand and business globally, this partnership further solidifies Corpay’s position as the corporate payments and currency risk management company of choice within the Premier League, and we look forward to working with Everton during the coming season and beyond,” concluded Loder.

Richard Kenyon, Chief Commercial and Communications Officer at Everton, added: “I’d like to thank everyone at Everton, and at Corpay Cross-Border, who have developed this long-term partnership. We look forward to working alongside Corpay to help them benefit from the global exposure offered during our historic year final season at Goodison Park and the move to our wonderful new waterfront stadium.”

This deal follows Corpay’s recent agreement with Manchester City, where the firm was named the Official FX Partner of the Premier League champions. In another collaboration, Corpay partnered with AC Milan, establishing the company as the official commercial foreign exchange (FX) partner of the renowned football club.

Corpay’s growing presence in football highlights the company’s ongoing efforts to expand its brand and reinforce its position in the corporate payments sector.

The collaboration with Everton will provide Corpay with significant visibility during an important year for the club, while helping Everton address the financial complexities that come with managing international transactions and mitigating currency risk.
