Empowering Minor League Baseball and the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp
The Jacksonville (Fla.) Jumbo Shrimp are breaking attendance records and giving fans an awesome experience with the help of FIS, which provides modernized payments and processing support for every aspect of the ball club as part of its wider “Ballparks of the Future” initiative. In 2017, FIS was named the official payments and loyalty provider of Minor League Baseball™ (MiLB™).

I don’t think anybody in our business, on the baseball side, wakes up in the morning, and brushes their teeth and starts shaving, and starts thinking about merchant processing – but the team at FIS does. I know that for sure!"
Together, FIS and the Jumbo Shrimp are turning the ballpark into a true innovation lab to test new payment technologies and fan experiences. First among the planned additions are the ability to order concessions from your seat via the team’s forthcoming mobile app as well as a first-of-its-kind loyalty program that will extend to businesses beyond the ballpark to engage and reward fans.
