Influxer Named Official NIL Merchandise Provider of the NJCAA

May 18, 2026

Influxer is proud to announce a new strategic partnership with the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA), becoming the Official NIL Merchandise Provider of the NJCAA.

The partnership represents a major step forward in expanding NIL opportunities for student-athletes across junior college athletics, providing NJCAA athletes, coaches, and member institutions with tools designed to support athlete branding, merchandise, fan engagement, and long-term NIL growth.

Through Influxer’s platform, student-athletes can launch personalized merchandise storefronts featuring officially licensed school branding without upfront costs, inventory management, or operational burdens. Athletes are able to build their personal brand while creating new opportunities to connect with supporters and generate revenue through NIL.

The partnership also reflects the continued growth of NIL across all levels of college athletics, not just at the Power Five level.

“For too long, NIL opportunities have often felt limited to top-level programs or athletes with massive audiences,” said Tyler Jaynes, Founder and CEO of Influxer. “This partnership is about making NIL more accessible and scalable for thousands of NJCAA student-athletes nationwide.”

In addition to merchandise and storefront tools, Influxer will provide educational resources, onboarding support, and marketing guidance to NJCAA member institutions to help schools successfully implement athlete branding and NIL opportunities across campus.

As NIL continues evolving, partnerships like this represent a broader shift toward giving more athletes access to tools that support long-term brand growth beyond competition.

Influxer currently works with more than 70,000 student-athletes across more than 600 colleges nationwide, helping athletes build brands through officially licensed merchandise, content creation, and NIL opportunities.

The NJCAA has served as the premier governing body for two-year collegiate athletics since 1938 and currently includes more than 500 member schools and 3,400 teams competing across 28 sports.
