The League of Legends Championship of the Americas (LTA) has secured a multi-year partnership with Uber, naming the company its [official rideshare and on-demand delivery partner](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/discounted-rideshare).

As part of the collaboration, LTA North fans can enjoy exclusive perks, including discounts and access to the Uber Hextech Chest game available to [Uber One](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grocery-network) members. Additionally, viewers tuning in live will receive drops featuring limited-time promotions and in-game content.

During matches, the LTA broadcast will also introduce an ‘[Eats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/go-get) Button,' which directs fans to a dedicated Uber Eats hub where they can unlock special discounts on food orders.

“Adding Uber as an official partner for the LTA inaugural season is such a win for our pros and fans,” commented Mark Zimmerman, LTA Commissioner. “Uber embodies what it means to be a transformational brand, completely changing the game in how we connect daily to the people, places, and products, and we’re excited to tap into that spirit to deliver next-level experiences to our fans.”
