Cryptocurrency exchange Bybit has announced that it will be collaborating with the Swiss luxury watch manufacturer Franck Muller.
To promote the complementary nature of Bybit’s technology and Franck Muller’s timelessly artisanal approach, the two companies have joined forces to launch joint campaigns, as per the information shared with Finbold on June 9.
Customers of both Bybit and Franck Muller will benefit from the introduction of a co-branded card that will be issued by the two firms. Customers will have the ability to pay for purchases made on the Franck Muller website using the card, and they will also get access to special discounts when the card is used at partner merchants.
An original game developed by Franck Muller will also be released, providing watch and video game fans with an exciting new way to interact with the brand. Bybit will assist in the development of a collection of non-fungible tokens (NFT) showcasing iconic figures and weaponry from the game, and the exchange will also provide weekly rewards for players who score the highest.
