PHOENIX—PayPal and the NBA's Phoenix Suns have inked a deal designed to bring the “omnichannel experience” to sports.
Fans can use the PayPal digital app to place and pay for orders from their seats and buy merchandise and other items that they can pick up on their way out or have shipped home, thanks to the integrated POS experience at the terminals at the arena, Pymnts.com reported.
PayPal Here card readers will also accept credit, debit, or tap to pay mobile payments, which means fans can pay however they choose, including using balances from their PayPal accounts.
PayPal will get a co-branding spot on the Phoenix Suns patches. The pro basketball team's season ticket holders can use PayPal Credit to finance their ticket purchase, paying the balance over time, Pymnts.com said.
