Houston Texans becomes first NFL team to sell game suite with crypto

National Football League (NFL) team Houston Texans has become the first organisation in the league to sell single-game suites in exchange for crypto.

BitWallet, a Houston-based cryptocurrency company, has entered into an exclusive partnership to become the Official Digital Currency Wallet of the Houston Texans. The partnership goes into effect immediately.

Through this unique partnership, fans have the opportunity to purchase single game suites with cryptocurrency, using BitWallet as the intermediary (which converts the cryptocurrency to U.S. dollars).

The Texans are the first team in the NFL that has sold a suite through digital currency. Houston-based full-service digital marketing agency EWR Digital was the purchaser of the suite at the team’s NRG Stadium.

ALSD International 2022 is taking place at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, September 19-20, with 325+ attendees confirmed. The core focus of optimising revenue through New Builds, Renovations & Service Expansions, means that topics such as Architecture & Design, Fan Experience, Hospitality & Interiors, Premium Seating, Sustainability and Technology are among the key pillars. 

Houston Texans President Greg Grissom said:

We are proud to partner with BitWallet to offer an exciting option for our fans who are looking to enjoy Texans gameday in one of our suites. BitWallet is a perfect collaborator as we continue our efforts to move our organization forward in new and innovative ways.

BitWallet CEO John T. Perrone said:

Digital currency has become a primary means of payment and by partnering with BitWallet, the Texans are leading the way in the NFL. I am honored that BitWallet is the first to offer Texans fans this service.

BitWallet is a high-security cryptocurrency wallet and exchange for both individuals and businesses. With BitWallet you can send Bitcoin anywhere in the world, instantly, for free.
