US mortgage lender United Wholesale Mortgage (UWM) has announced a multi-year partnership with North American basketball’s NBA and women’s WNBA.
The agreement makes UWM’s consumer-facing brand Mortgage Matchup the official mortgage partner of the leagues.
The deal, which will involve collaborating with the leagues on marketing and promotional activities, marks the first-ever mortgage partnership for both competitions.
Mortgage Matchup will receive media exposure across the league platforms, including on-court virtual signage during NBA and WNBA national broadcasts, and social and digital platforms.
UWM has served as a partner of NBA team the Detroit Pistons since the 2021-22 NBA season, with its logo prominently featured on their team jerseys.
