FACEIT, an esports tournament platform, has announced that they have signed a partnership with European esports organization 9INE.
This partnership aims to support 9INE’s fans more, especially its Polish community. So that, 9INE’s fan base will receive a moderated space on FACEIT. Additionally, 9INE will have permission to run competitions on the FACEIT and sell merchs via FACEIT shop among other things.
The Swedish esports organization 9INE is well-known for its Polish CS:GO roster. In 2023, the organization achieved competitive success by qualifying for the BLAST.tv Paris Major, being first in European RMR B, and being runners-up in the ESL Challenger League.
Even more, the partnership enables 9INE and FACEIT to create special creator portals, sponsored events, social feeds, and postings. Furthermore, 9INE will be able to sell merchandise by FACEIT points via FACEIT shop. All together, these factors make it relatively simple for 9INE to support Polish players and expand their presence in the area.
Less than a week after partnering with Astralis, FACEIT, a division of the ESL FACEit Group, appears to be pushing for further partnerships with esports organizations.
“We’re an esports organisation that’s been making waves in Poland and we’re excited to partner up with FACEIT. Our successes in the esports industry speaks for itself and we’re confident that teaming up with FACEIT would bring a whole new level of benefits to both parties. We’re eager to explore this opportunity further and see how we can make the most of it together.” said 9INE’s CEO Fredrik Belstad.
