MoonPay and X Games establish MoonPay X Games League

We’re thrilled to announce a historic, multi-year partnership with X Games, the leader in action sports!

The three-year, category-exclusive partnership names MoonPay as the Title Partner of the newly formed MoonPay X Games League (XGL), marking the first league title partnership in X Games history. This milestone signals X Games’ transition from standalone events to a year-round, team-based global league.

The partnership establishes MoonPay as the exclusive category partner across finance, banking, and crypto for the newly formed X Games League, while introducing a first-of-its-kind pass-through model that extends participation to MoonPay’s network of partners. 

X Games Aspen 2026 Driven by Jeep® will be the final standalone X Games event, closing one of the most iconic chapters in action sports history and opening the door to a professionalized future built on teams, rivalries, and season-long competition. The MoonPay X Games League will now be a team-based competition structure for both winter and summer action sports athletes competing in various skateboarding, BMX, snowboarding and freeskiing disciplines. This new approach to competition will bolster athlete salaries and benefits, offer new team ownership opportunities, and create season-long narratives that build authentic rivalries.

As Title Partner of the MoonPay X Games League, MoonPay will enable select partners to engage within the league ecosystem through integrated activations and experiences, bringing the broader crypto industry into X Games through a single, unified framework built at the league level.

“We’re thinking long term,” said Ivan Soto-Wright, CEO & Founder of MoonPay. “X Games is becoming a real league, and that’s the moment to invest big. The MoonPay X Games League puts athletes first and brings crypto to a global audience, powered by our partner ecosystem, in a bold, new way.”
