Far East focused Retail FX and CFDs broker WeTrade, fresh off signing a sponsorship deal with French football club and Champions League winner PSG, is further expanding its sports portfolio announcing a new multi-year partnership with NBA club Houston Rockets.

The Houston Rockets have long had a large fan base in China and among Chinese speakers worldwide, thanks to their nine year association with Yao Ming, selected first overall by the Rockets in the 2002 NBA draft and still considered the best Chinese basketball player of all time.

WeTrade said that the partnership provides it with access to the Rockets’ global fanbase, supporting its continued expansion through large-scale engagement while reinforcing brand visibility and trust within a structured, high-standard environment.

Under the collaboration, WeTrade and the Houston Rockets will deliver integrated initiatives, including digital campaigns, global activations, and exclusive experiences for fans and traders worldwide.

Commenting on the partnership, George Miltiadous, Group CEO of WeTrade, said,

“We are excited to partner with the Houston Rockets. This collaboration brings together the discipline and mindset of elite sport and trading. Through this partnership, we aim to continue connecting our global audiences to meaningful opportunities and experiences that extend beyond the markets.”

Houston Rockets President of Business Operations Gretchen Sheirr added,

“This partnership brings together the Houston Rockets and WeTrade, two global brands united by innovation, performance, and a commitment to engaging audiences in meaningful ways. As the Rockets continue to grow our global fanbase, we look forward to creating unique experiences and connections for fans around the world while welcoming WeTrade to our expanding portfolio of global partners.”

This partnership marks a new phase in WeTrade’s global growth strategy, reinforcing its presence across international markets. It follows a series of collaborations with global brands, including Paris Saint-Germain, recently crowned Ligue 1 champions for a fifth consecutive season, and Phantom Global in the Porsche Carrera Cup Asia Championship.
