Corpay, a global payments company, was named the
exclusive Global Foreign Exchange (FX) Partner of UFC, the mixed martial arts
organization. This collaboration aims to improve currency risk
management and cross-border payment solutions to UFC’s fans and international
business operations.

The partnership reportedly started with UFC FIGHT
NIGHT in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on February 1, 2024. It brings Corpay’s
expertise in foreign exchange services into the spotlight as UFC continues its
global expansion.
