Ninjas in Pyjamas (NIP) announced Saturday that Rainbet will serve as its main jersey partner of its Counter-Strike 2 team for the remainder of 2025.
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
In case you are not familiar with the company, Rainbet is a self-described crypto casino and sportsbook company, founded in 2023, that offers what it calls a “strong mix of casino games, sports betting, and community-driven rewards.”
Under the terms of this partnership, Rainbet’s logo will be featured across NIP’s competitive roster jerseys and official team apparel. The new jersey was revealed today by its Counter-Strike 2 team (players Snappi, Arrozdoce, Ewjerkz, Sjuush, and R1nkle), who competed at PGL Astana 2025.
“We’re excited to welcome Rainbet as our new main jersey sponsor,” said Hicham Chahine, CEO of Ninjas in Pyjamas. “This collaboration represents a shared commitment to excellence, creativity, and pushing the envelope in competitive gaming. We’re looking forward to the journey ahead.”
NIP is part of NIP Group, which was formed in 2023 after Chinese esports company eStar Gaming Victory Five (ESV5) completed its merger with the Sweden-based esports organization through an equity swap. ESV5 CEO Mario Ho and NIP CEO Hicham Chahine currently serve as NIP Group’s co-CEOs.
NIP’s current sponsors include Red Bull, Chinese company BYD, and FILA.
