As per the news release, the partnership will help GameStop introduce its customers to further exposure around digital currencies and other solutions within the crypto ecosystem.
To advance this goal, FTX US has become GameStop’s exclusive cryptocurrency exchange partner in the United States. On the other hand, GameStop is the preferred retail gaming partner of FTX US.
Brett Harrison, President of FTX US, commenting on the partnership and what it means for both companies, noted:
“At FTX US, we prioritize the experience of our users, a belief that is shared by GameStop and one that has played an integral role in establishing the company as the premier video game retailer for consumers. We are excited for GameStop to become our preferred video game retail partner in the U.S. and leverage their high-traffic retail locations and significant web presence to further merge gaming and crypto fans.”
GameStop and FTX US are set to use the strategic partnership to collaborate on multiple fronts meant to increase the market footprint of both companies. These will include initiatives on online marketing, in-store campaigns and loyalty rewards via FTX US gift cards.
