This milestone partnership, aimed at advancing Dogecoin ($DOGE) as a widely accepted global currency, establishes House of Doge as the official and exclusive partner of the Dogecoin Foundation.

House of Doge (Nasdaq: HOOD) today shared key details of its previously announced exclusive five-year partnership with the Dogecoin Foundation. This milestone partnership, which aims to advance Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE) as a widely accepted global currency, establishes House of Doge as the official and exclusive partner of the Dogecoin Foundation.

The company also announced the Board-Elect who will provide strategic oversight as House of Doge advances its mission. The seats have been accepted, and all Directors-Elect are set to assume their official roles as soon as legally permitted following the closing of the previously announced public listing. House of Doge and Doge Merger Sub are expected to complete the go-public transaction in Q2 2025, as disclosed in the March 3, 2025 joint press release announcing the transaction.

The Board-Elect includes Sarosh Mistry, President and CEO of Sodexo North America, Timothy Stebbing, Executive Director and CTO of the Dogecoin Foundation, and Michael Galloro, Managing Partner at ALOE Finance. Additional board seats will be held by the incoming CEO, while the fifth seat will be occupied by a prominent attorney. Their names will be disclosed when legally permitted.

“The payments industry is rapidly evolving, and cryptocurrencies are at the very forefront of innovation as corporations look for integrations to streamline their business,” said Sarosh Mistry, President and CEO of Sodexo North America and Director-Elect of House of Doge. “Spearheaded by House of Doge and the SuchPay platform, dogecoin payments will pave the way for major enterprises who process millions of transactions daily to access a fast, cost-efficient crypto payment system with lower fees than traditional credit card processors.”

“We are thrilled to have House of Doge as our official commercialization partner, and to sit on the board amongst this esteemed group,” said Timothy Stebbing, Director of the Dogecoin Foundation and member of the Board of Directors of House of Doge. “This partnership allows for the Foundation to focus on developing world-class open-source technology while House of Doge leads adoption efforts through corporate collaborations, infrastructure development, and education. We are confident that through this partnership 2025 will be a defining year for Dogecoin.”

Among the announced members of the Advisory Board are Jens Wiechers, Executive Director of the Dogecoin Foundation, Doug Wall, Managing Partner of Dallas based Crypto private equity firm Shadow Partners, and Roger Rai, Vice Chairman of the Toronto Blue Jays.

Roger Rai, Vice Chairman of Major League Baseball’s Toronto Blue Jays and Director-Elect of House of Doge added, “Dogecoin has the most loyal, vibrant community who have a demographic in the sweet spot of sports fans that teams like the Blue Jays and major leagues from stick and ball sports to motor racing want to keep entertained. Introducing Dogecoin which is a very fast and easy currency would enhance the entire experience and why I’m personally a supporter of House of Doge.”

House of Doge has also appointed a CEO and President, and an exceptional team with longstanding expertise in payments and financial technology. This team most recently built and led a highly successful payment platform, which was in early 2025 acquired by one of the world’s largest financial processors. Aligned with the Board’s vision, they are passionate supporters of the Dogecoin mission. Their names and strategic roles will be announced as soon as legally permitted.

House of Doge is in the final stages of discussions with no less than 20 corporate partners to drive Dogecoin adoption across industries. Potential partners span fast food chains, global retailers, global food service providers, city councils for payments and ticketing, professional sports leagues, auto dealerships, and travel companies. As interest continues to surge, the list of companies seeking Dogecoin integration expands daily.
