The National Association of Collegiate Esports (NACE) has announced a new partnership with InTouch Credit Union (ITCU), which will now serve as NACE’s Official Financial Services Partner.
The agreement, arranged by PIVOT Agency, focuses on helping collegiate esports students develop stronger financial skills and gain access to valuable money management resources. As part of the partnership, NACE and ITCU will launch a new Financial Literacy channel in the Student Hub of the NACE Discord.
This channel will feature videos covering topics like budgeting, saving money, understanding credit, and basic financial planning. The goal is to give students a platform to learn how to manage their finances and prepare for the future.
Riley Long, Executive Director of NACE, said in an official statement, “The partnership will help students both in and out of competition. Partnering with ITCU allows us to continue to expand our mission beyond competition by equipping students with the tools to be successful in life. Through this partnership, we will be focused on educating our member program students with essential financial literacy knowledge to prepare them for success outside of the server.”
ITCU will also connect with the collegiate esports community through ads and features on NACE broadcasts. The credit union will appear in broadcast graphics, website banners, and event signage. NACE says that these co-branded elements will help raise awareness of ITCU’s support for financial education in esports.
In recent weeks, NACE has continued to expand its support for the collegiate esports community through several new partnerships. Two weeks ago, the association named Raven as its official merchandise partner to help improve commercial options and professional resources for member schools. NACE also teamed up with the Voice of Intercollegiate Esports to bring more structure and consistency to college esports programs across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
