In a major announcement today, the renowned global online betting and gaming brand, Betway, has secured an impressive partnership with the Arsenal men’s team, solidifying its position as the Official Global Betting Partner.
The multi-year deal is the latest addition to Betway’s burgeoning football portfolio, which already includes notable partnerships in the English Premier League with West Ham as Principal Partner and Brighton as Official Global Partner. Additionally, Betway has inked agreements with clubs in La Liga and the Bundesliga.
This exciting collaboration is set to elevate the supporter experience by delivering global activations and exclusive content across various social media platforms.
