AIMS joins MPL Indonesia as Season 18 trading partner

Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Professional League Indonesia has named AIMS its official trading partner for Season 18, adding the online brokerage to the Indonesian esports league’s commercial partner roster.

AIMS, short for Auric International Markets Limited, was founded in 2015 and provides online brokerage services for foreign exchange trading, which involves buying and selling currencies. Under the agreement, the company will engage Mobile Legends: Bang Bang fans through community activities, educational content, digital initiatives and in-person events during the season.

MPL Indonesia is organised by MOONTON Games Indonesia, the company behind Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, with esports organisation Mineski Global. The Season 18 regular season ran from Aug. 14 through Oct. 18, 2026. The Grand Finals are scheduled for Nov. 8, with a prize pool of approximately $270,000.

MPL Indonesia and AIMS have not disclosed the financial terms of the agreement or provided details about how AIMS branding will appear during the tournament. Other Season 18 partners include GOPAY, Telkomsel, Infinix, IndiHome, Dunia Games, Good Time, by.U, Todak Nusantara, Telkomsel GamesMAX, AQUA Elektronik, So Good, Captain Barbershop and Platinum Cineplex.

Martinus H. Manurung, head of esports business development at MOONTON Games Indonesia, described AIMS’ arrival as part of the league’s expanding commercial partner base. “Welcoming AIMS reflects the continued growth and diversification of the MPL Indonesia partnership ecosystem,” he said. “It is encouraging to see brands from new industries recognising the strength of MLBB esports, the passion of our community and the value of being part of this platform.”

He added that the league looked forward to seeing AIMS engage with fans “in a relevant, responsible and enjoyable way.”

Rudy Hermanto, marketing manager at AIMS International, described MLBB and MPL as a competitive esports ecosystem. “Whether you are improving individually or competing as a team, becoming better requires discipline, patience, learning and strong fundamentals,” he said.

Other non-gaming companies have announced partnerships in the MLBB esports ecosystem in 2026. Visa and MOONTON Games announced a three-year agreement covering the M Series, MLBB’s main international tournament. In May, tournament organiser NODWIN Gaming partnered with data infrastructure provider Runestone for the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Championship Tour AMER 2026. Qiddiya City and MPL Middle East and North Africa also announced a five-year partnership to support esports and entertainment activity in the region.
