UNZER Extends Partnership with Rugby Germany
Berlin, October 8, 2025 – Rugby Germany and payment company UNZER are extending their successful collaboration through the end of 2026 — and expanding it even further. The partnership will now also include the women’s national sevens team, ensuring that one of Europe’s leading independent payment companies remains a key partner of German sevens rugby.
“What began as a loose sponsorship just over four years ago has grown into a genuine partnership,” said Florian Hartmann, Executive Board Member for Structure and Development at Rugby Germany. “I’m delighted that UNZER will continue to support Rugby Germany through 2026. Extending the partnership to include the women’s sevens national team is an especially important step. UNZER and Rugby Germany: here’s to many more years together!”
UNZER supports Rugby Germany by providing simple, digital solutions for ticket sales and payments around matches. Fans can easily purchase tickets online and choose from a range of payment methods — including credit card and mobile payment options.
The same convenience applies to buying fan merchandise, snacks, and drinks: all transactions are processed centrally, giving the federation full transparency. Orders can be made on-site or via mobile devices, saving time and making the experience smoother for everyone involved.
This means Rugby Germany benefits from reduced administrative effort and clearer accounting, while fans enjoy quick, seamless payments — ensuring a great day out at the rugby.
“We’re thrilled to continue our partnership with Rugby Germany and to now support the women’s national sevens team as well,” said Sebastian Wenzel, Head of Marketing at UNZER. “Our payment solutions help make operations across the federation and its clubs more modern, efficient, and secure — setting them up for the future.”
