Newly promoted-to-the-EPL football club Burnley FC has announced a new strategic partnership with Australia based foreign exchange and payment solutions provider OFX (ASX:OFX), which will see OFX become Burnley FC’s official payments partner.
As Burnley FC’s official payments partner, OFX will power the Club’s internal financial operations through the OFX Financial Platform – an all-in-one solution for modern finance teams. The platform includes access to global business accounts, market-leading FX solutions such as spot transfers and forwards, automated accounts payable, and smart corporate cards with cashback to drive real-time expense visibility and control.
Maeve McMahon, President of OFX EMEA said,
“This partnership demonstrates the fundamental reason why we have evolved into OFX 2.0. We’re not just sponsoring Burnley FC; we’re enabling them to run their Club better. By adopting our platform, Burnley can manage spend, payments, and currency flows across their business, all in one place. We’re thrilled to be supporting the Clarets as they expand their brand, attract fellow sponsors, and engage with fans globally.”
James Holroyd, Burnley FC’s Chief Executive Officer added,
“We are delighted to welcome OFX as a new strategic partner ahead of the upcoming season.
“OFX bring with them extensive expertise and their valuable support will enable us to benefit from their all-in-one financial platform whilst continuing to build on our global reach. As organisations we share similar values and a passion for engaging with fans globally. We’re excited to be working together.”
Burnley FC will integrate several key modules of the OFX platform, including FX payment capabilities for international transfers, AP automation for simplified supplier workflows, and smart corporate cards to streamline employee spend.
The parties said that this collaboration highlights OFX’s continued growth in the UK and across the region, where it is helping businesses modernise financial infrastructure with a single, scalable solution. Unlike traditional sponsorships, the Burnley FC relationship is rooted in a genuine commercial partnership designed to support long-term financial success.
