Usio Partners with NASCAR Driver Landon Cassill of Kaulig Racing
Cassill to Drive the No. 10 Usio Chevrolet in Select NASCAR Xfinity Series Races and Participate in a Number of Other Usio Events Throughout 2022
SAN ANTONIO, Feb. 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Usio, Inc. (Nasdaq: USIO), a leading, cloud-based, integrated FinTech electronic payment solutions provider, announced today it will be partnering with driver Landon Cassill of Kaulig Racing during the 2022 NASCAR Xfinity Series (NXS) season. As part of the partnership, Landon will drive a Usio branded version of his No. 10 Chevrolet Camaro. Usio’s first race with Cassill will be held in Austin, Texas, at Circuit of the Americas.
Louis Hoch, President and Chief Executive Officer of Usio, said, “We are extremely excited to team up with Landon Cassill and Kaulig Racing. NASCAR continues to grow in popularity with attendance up in 2021 and viewership both on NBC sports and over its streaming networks on the rise. This partnership is a win in every dimension, for Usio, for Landon, for Kaulig Racing and NASCAR in general. The sponsorship also involves a number of additional planned promotional events, all of which with a turn of the ignition, will generate a lot of noise for Usio and its shareholders and increase our national brand awareness. We look forward to watching Landon drive the No. 10 Usio Chevy to victory at the upcoming Texas-based races at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas on March 26th and Texas Motor Speedway in Ft. Worth, Texas, on September 24th.”
