SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 25 November 2025 - Visa inked a landmark partnership with the M7 World Championship (M7), marking its first entry into Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) Esports! With over 1.5 billion installations and 110 million Monthly Active Users (MAU), MLBB ranks amongst the world's most-popular mobile Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) titles. Its seven-year-old esports ecosystem amassed 475 million Hours Watched (HW) in 2024, placing it alongside the biggest names in global sports entertainment, according to Esports Charts. As the Official Payment Partner of the M7, Visa will play a pivotal role in elevating the M7 through premium fan experiences and secure payment solutions. The partnership reflects a shared vision of empowering youth to live and play while advancing financial inclusion through digital innovation.

A union of two industry giants

Visa, the world leader in digital payments, will join forces with MOONTON Games to provide MLBB fans seamless access to world-class esports experiences. Facilitating payments across more than 200 countries and territories, Visa empowers people across the world to engage confidently in the digital economy. This partnership marks the payment giant's first collaboration with MLBB Esports—integrating its secure payment technology into MLBB's global digital community.

Adrian Cher, Global Head of Partnerships, MLBB Esports at MOONTON Games, said: "Having Visa onboard for the M7 World Championship is a huge milestone for the industry. It shows how far MLBB and mobile esports have come—now attracting global, mainstream brands. While this is all incredibly exciting, more importantly is how this partnership allows us elevate the M7 experience for our fans. Every partnership should make a difference—and with Visa, we are going beyond esports. Having them onboard provides the youth reliable payment solutions, empowering them to thrive in the digital economy while pursuing their passions."

As the Official Payment Partner, Visa will integrate secure digital payment processes into MLBB's global esports ecosystem. Visa cardholders can enjoy an exclusive 20% off on M7 tickets throughout the regular sale, granting them access to the seventh edition of MLBB's flagship international tournament. They will also stand a chance to win exclusive M7 insider experience through Mythic VIP tickets, premium seating, backstage tours, and meet-and-greets. The full campaign details will be released at a later date.

At Visa, we believe in empowering the next generation to pursue their passions—whether in gaming, competition, or connecting with friends—by making digital payments simple, safe, and accessible. Through this partnership, we're not only supporting the growth of esports, but also making it easier for young fans and players to enjoy the game, connect with their community, and access exclusive experiences. We look forward to celebrating the spirit of competition and innovation with MLBB fans at the M7."
