Seattle Seahawks and PayPal announce PayPal as the team's Official Fan-to-Fan Payments & Exclusive Digital Ticket Payment Processing Partner
Seahawks are the first NFL club partnership for PayPal
As part of this deal, PayPal will also become the new presenting partner of the Seahawks Gameday Experience Program, which gives fans access to exclusive opportunities such as pregame field passes, on-field access during player introductions, postgame press conference access, and more for every home game.
In addition, fans purchasing season tickets will have the opportunity to exclusively check out using PayPal's seamless experience. The Seahawks have fully integrated PayPal's payment processing platform with Ticketmaster, which is a first for PayPal with the NFL.
"There's nothing like the energy of the 12s — one of the most passionate fanbases in sports, where the noise and pride show up at full force every Sunday," said
"We are thrilled to welcome PayPal, an industry leader in payments and digital commerce, to the Seahawks family. Our shared commitment to innovation will elevate the gameday experience for the 12s in new and exciting ways," said
Through this partnership, PayPal is redefining how fans pay, connect, and participate in gameday experiences around money movement moments:
- Send and receive money with PayPal's comprehensive peer-to-peer offering: PayPal offers more reach, and more ways to send without having to compromise. And there's no other way to send money goes further, across 110+ countries1 to hundreds of millions of people all through the new PayPal app with payments encrypted and transactions protected. Fans can quickly and instantly pay or receive money using a name, username, email, or phone number.
- PayPal also offers the ability to send payments via shareable Links: so you can send a payment in a text, DM, or email. For group purchases or shared experiences, fans can organize or track contributions via Pools.
- Send money across PayPal and Venmo, no matter your preferred app: Users can send and receive money directly between PayPal and Venmo, connecting PayPal customers to over 100 million Venmo users in the
U.S. right from the PayPal app.
The partnership further builds on PayPal's growing role across sports and entertainment. With more than hundreds of millions of active accounts across 200 markets, PayPal offers the scale, trust, and global reach to power high-demand moments like gameday. By bringing together easy checkout, flexible payments, and social money movement, PayPal will help the Seahawks unlock new ways to engage fans and drive incremental revenue tied to gameday — from ticketing and upgrades to in-stadium and community experiences.
