LOS ANGELES, CA (June 3, 2022) - The Premier Lacrosse League (PLL) powered by Ticketmaster has named Cash App the Official Cryptocurrency Exchange, Peer to Peer Payment Technology, and Investment/Trading Platform of the PLL.

“Our mission is to trailblaze the future of professional sports, and we believe that Cash App is one of the most innovative businesses and marketing brands in the world,” said PLL Co-Founder and President, Paul Rabil. “Beginning this season, you can expect to see cutting-edge integration from our compensation packages with players and front office colleagues, all the way through our final competition, where our champions will now hoist the Cash App Championship Trophy. Personally, I’m also excited and humbled that Cash App will be joining our off the field initiatives, presenting our Goals for Greatness program.”

As part of the partnership, players will have the option to get paid in Bitcoin by automatically investing a portion of their PLL paychecks into bitcoin through Cash App. Players have the ability to instantly turn on, off, and adjust at any time. And there's no fees to opt-in.

Cash App will be the presenting partner of Goals for Greatness, a 501(c)(3) organization created by PLL Co-Founder and President Paul Rabil. With the help of Cash App, Goals for Greatness is committed to resourcing lacrosse goals in all 50 states every year. 

“We've long been focused on making money more relatable at Cash App, and we're excited to partner with one of the most progressive, forward-thinking leagues in sports to do so," said Catherine Ferdon, Head of Marketing & Brand at Cash App. "By offering PLL players the opportunity to get paid in Bitcoin, we hope even more folks will be compelled to select a percentage of their paycheck to convert to the cryptocurrency for free into Cash App.”

Each weekend of the PLL season, Cash App will be adding money for every goal scored into a weekly pot. All contest entrants in Goals for Cash presented by Cash App will be eligible to win the pot on a weekly basis. Winners will receive their winnings via their Cash App account.
