CINCINNATI — The NIL Store powered by Campus Ink has announced the launch of the NIL Store for University of Cincinnati athletes, providing officially licensed NIL merchandising opportunities to Bearcats student-athletes across all sports.
Some of the athletes included in the launch are Riley Allenspach, Quinton Coats, Caliyah Devillasee, Marquaze Parker, Juliette Laracuente-Huebner, and Evan Tengesdahl.
The store gives fans the opportunity to place industry-leading payments directly into their favorite student-athlete's pocket on every purchase, creating a seamless connection between Bearcats fans and the athletes they support.
As part of the NIL Store network, the platform will continuously onboard new student-athletes and develop custom merchandise drops for their individual online locker rooms — including core product collections featuring personalized names and numbers. All merchandise is officially licensed by the University of Cincinnati.
"Merchandise has always been one of the most natural ways fans engage with athletes." said Eddie Taylor, Director of Athlete Influence at Cincy Connect NIL. "This partnership with Campus Ink gives our athletes a legitimate, scalable revenue stream that runs alongside everything else we're building for them.
The NIL Store has been trusted by more than 135 schools nationwide and more than 30,000 student-athletes.
