A new era begins in Formula E as Envision Racing becomes Paysafe Envision Racing.

The partnership is built on a simple idea: fans shouldn't have to choose between watching the action and being a part of it. From the grid to gaming, esports arenas to exclusive rewards, Paysafe and Envision Racing will create one connected journey where every interaction brings fans closer to the team and unlocks something new.

Formula E is one of the fastest-growing motorsport properties in the world, built around exactly the audience Paysafe serves: digitally native fans who move fluidly between live sport, gaming, creator content and digital commerce. With the Gen4 era set to redefine electric racing through faster cars, greater performance and an even more compelling spectacle, Formula E is entering its most transformative chapter yet. Through Formula E's global stage, Paysafe will put Skrill, PaysafeCard, PaysafeWallet, PagoEfectivo, and its full portfolio of consumer payment brands in front of over 560 million TV viewers across the globe; as the infrastructure powering how they play, compete and connect.

That ambition is backed by three decades of experience built for exactly this moment. Paysafe brings expertise in gaming and digital entertainment payments, a network of more than 1 million retailers, 19 million annual active users, regulatory and risk infrastructure spanning over 100 countries, and more than 100 banking partners worldwide. Few companies can combine that scale of trust with the speed this partnership demands.

Under the partnership, Paysafe and Envision Racing will explore a shared roadmap of fan-first innovations; esports tournaments, sim-racing competitions, exclusive VIP race experiences, gaming activations, digital wallet integrations and rewards programs, all designed around a single ambition: turning spectators into participants.

Bruce Lowthers, CEO of Paysafe said: "Envision Racing gives us a stage to reach a global audience that lives at the intersection of sport, gaming and technology, and that's exactly where Paysafe is built to play. This partnership will build something fans haven't seen before; one ecosystem where racing, gaming and rewards come together, and where Skrill, PaysafeCard, PaysafeWallet and PagoEfectivo become part of how a new generation of fans engage with the sport they love. We’re proud to partner with a team that shares our passion for innovation and redefining what’s possible for fans.”

Franz Jung, CEO & Chairman of the Board of Envision Racing and VP Envision Energy said: Envision Energy is delighted to have such a wonderful global brand like Paysafe joining Envision as Title Partners of the team. We’re really excited to see where the two businesses can drive this racing team. We’re incredibly proud of our achievements on and off track and we know that Paysafe will be supporting us in the next evolution as we enter GEN4.”

Sylvain Filippi, Managing Director and CTO of Envision Racing, said: “Paysafe joining us as Title Partner is a huge moment for the team. They’re a genuine global player with a presence across gaming, entertainment, and payments that aligns closely with Formula E’s global fanbase. We are building the foundations of a very successful fan programme - we are going to enjoy our journey with Paysafe to bring our unique positioning in sport to more people globally and to continue driving awareness and understanding in how this team is committed to supporting a healthier planet. We’ve got some brilliant plans in motion together, and the start of Season 13 in the new GEN4 car is just the beginning.”

The partnership launch will be marked with a series of activations across the London E-Prix on August 15–16 and beyond, with a livery launch expected in October and larger activations across Season 13.
