Exclusive: EZTrader Halts Major Sport Sponsorships
- After the Tottenham Hotspur deal cancellation, the binary options provider brought the deal with Roma AS to an early end.

Binary options brokerage EZTrader.com (OTCMKTS:EZTD) has decided to pull back from almost all the sport sponsorships that it was involved in, as part of a strategic decision to focus and invest in compliance with regulatory requirements, Finance Magnates has learned. As part of this strategic move, the company terminated its three year sponsorship deal with the Italian Serie A club Roma AS last September. As a result, the brokerage logo was removed from the football club website.
“Other than sponsoring the women's German national handball team and a small sponsorship in Japan, EZTrader has decided to stop all sport sponsorships,” the company exclusively commented to Finance Magnates. “We will be focusing on adherence with regulatory requirements, and may go back to sport sponsorships in the future.”
Using football sponsorship has not been uncommon in the binary options industry, especially for EZTrader.com. The brokerage has been engaged in numerous sponsorship deals with a variety of European clubs in countries such as Germany, France, Japan, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.
