National Squash League Announces Payment Labs as Official Payments Partner

The National Squash League is proud to announce a new partnership with Payment Labs

The National Squash League is proud to announce a new partnership with Payment Labs, the purpose-built, vertically focused payment solution for the modern-day sports, gaming and creator economies. As the Official Payments Partner of the NSL for the 2026/27 season. The partnership will modernize the NSL's athlete payment process, providing a streamlined solution for paying professional squash players around the world.

Now entering its third season, the NSL continues to grow its international player pool while transforming professional squash through a fast-paced, team-based format. With athletes traveling from around the world to compete in NSL matches, Payment Labs will help simplify the complexities that come with managing domestic and international athlete payments.

Through the partnership, NSL athletes will receive quick, regulated payouts supported by Payment Labs' tax and regulatory compliance infrastructure, regardless of where they are based. Payment Labs will also provide 24/7 support for both the league and its payees throughout the payment process.

By taking much of the administrative burden of athlete payments out of the NSL's hands, Payment Labs will allow the league to dedicate more time and resources toward its continued growth and the development of professional squash.

National Squash League CEO Spencer Lovejoy on the new partnership: "We're incredibly excited to partner with Payment Labs as we continue building the NSL into what we believe the future of professional team squash can look like. From the way the game is played and presented to the way our athletes interact with the league, we want every part of the NSL to feel modern and innovative. Payment Labs gives us the infrastructure to simplify payments for players around the world, remove administrative friction, and create a better overall experience for our athletes. Partnerships with forward-thinking companies like Payment Labs are going to be a critical part of our mission to revolutionize squash and build the sport for the next generation."

Payment Labs CEO and Co-Founder Han Park: "The NSL and its athletes should only focus on the competitions and growing the sport of squash - not worrying about payment operations or how and when their athletes get paid. By bringing Payment Labs' solutions and know-how to the NSL, we're enabling a new level of compliance and efficiency to a fast-growing organization with an international pool of athletes. Together, we're proving that smart payments infrastructure doesn't just benefit leagues, but players' experience, too."
