Stake.com sign Davido as global ambassador

The Afrobeats singer announced the partnership on social media, calling on fans to “join the winning team,” in what is being touted as a record-breaking endorsement deal.

Davido joins the Stake.com roster of celebrity ambassadors alongside Canadian rapper Drake and other global icons, signaling the betting platform’s push into new markets and audiences.

Born David Adedeji Adeleke in Atlanta in 1992 and raised in Lagos, Davido broke into the music scene with early 2011 hits like “Dami Duro,” quickly cementing himself as a household name in Nigeria. Over the past decade, he has released chart-topping albums and collaborated with international stars, earning multiple awards and helping propel Afrobeats into the global pop culture mainstream.

His influence extends far beyond music, as a trendsetter for Africa’s youth and a symbol of the continent’s talent on the world stage.

The news of Davido’s deal with Stake.com was seen by many as a proud moment for African entertainment, as he stands shoulder-to-shoulder with global stars like Drake in the world of major brand endorsements.

Drake has helped to raise Stake's profile in Canada and elsewhere. Davido offers Stake a gateway to African markets that are arguably under-tapped in the crypto betting space.
