BlackBull Markets has become an official sponsor of Auckland FC, the New Zealand-based soccer club that won the A-League Premiership in their inaugural season.
BlackBull Markets Sponsors Auckland FC
The partnership was announced by Anish Lal, Chief Business Development Officer at BlackBull Markets, through a social media post earlier today (Monday). While no formal press statement has been released, Auckland FC's website now lists BlackBull Markets among its "premium partners."
Auckland FC won the A-League Premiership last season in their first year of competition, becoming the first debut club to secure the title in Australia’s top football division.
It is worth noting that BlackBull Markets’ headquarters are located in Auckland, New Zealand. The broker has therefore chosen to build brand awareness locally among the nearly 2 million residents of the country’s largest city. Moreover, Auckland FC matches draw the highest average attendance in the domestic league, with more than 18,000 fans per game in the 2024 season.
Broker Expands Prime Account Benefits
The sponsorship news comes alongside BlackBull Markets' announcement of updated trading conditions for Prime Account holders. The New Zealand-based forex broker has eliminated spreads on major currency pairs for Prime clients, working with commercial partners including LMAX to secure improved pricing terms.
"We've made our biggest FX spreads improvement ever – exclusively for Prime Accounts," the company stated in its September 18 announcement.
The broker reported spread reductions ranging from 48% to 71% across major pairs, with USDCAD seeing the largest improvement at 71%, followed by AUDUSD at 59% and EURUSD at 53%. Prime clients now receive zero spreads on pairs including EURUSD, GBPUSD, and AUDUSD during most trading hours.
BlackBull Markets has simultaneously removed the minimum funding requirement for Prime Accounts, reducing it from $2,000 to zero dollars. The company said this change makes prime trading conditions "accessible to a wider range of traders."
