OFX Becomes Burnley’s Official Payments Partner

Under this agreement, OFX will become the Official Payments Partner of Burnley FC, supplying the club with tools to better manage its financial ecosystem. The OFX Financial Platform combines several modern finance capabilities into one solution — including global business accounts, automated payments, smart corporate cards with cashback rewards, and advanced foreign exchange services such as spot and forward contracts.

By integrating OFX’s platform, Burnley FC will gain more control and visibility over expenses, currency management, and supplier payments – essential features as the club grows its brand and commercial portfolio both in the UK and globally.

Leadership Perspectives on the Strategic Alliance

Maeve McMahon, President of OFX EMEA, commented on the deeper strategic value behind the collaboration:

“We didn’t partner with Burnley just to place our logo on a shirt. We’re providing the financial tools they need to operate more efficiently and scale internationally. This is what OFX 2.0 stands for – enabling our clients to succeed through smarter financial infrastructure.”

Burnley FC’s Chief Executive Officer, James Holroyd, echoed the excitement:

“We are pleased to welcome OFX as a strategic partner heading into the new season. Their platform will improve how we handle payments and FX operations, while also aligning with our goal to grow the club’s presence worldwide. This is a partnership built on shared values and ambition.”

Real-World Application: FX Transfers, Supplier Automation, and Smart Cards

Burnley will implement key modules of the OFX platform immediately. This includes:

• FX Payment Tools for managing international currency transfers and mitigating foreign exchange risks
• Automated Accounts Payable to streamline supplier invoicing and approval workflows
• Smart Corporate Cards that allow real-time control and visibility over team expenses

The partnership also includes 24/7 support from OFX’s global client service team, ensuring consistent operational reliability.

Modernizing Finance in Football

Unlike traditional sponsorships, the OFX-Burnley relationship is a true commercial partnership. By adopting OFX’s scalable financial platform, Burnley FC joins a growing list of businesses upgrading their infrastructure to meet modern challenges in sport and commerce.
