US-based skins trading platform Tradeit.gg has partnered with sports betting and casino website Chips.gg for the second edition of the Tradeit League FE Masters.

The partnership allows the organiser to offer giveaways for viewers and a higher prize pool of $1,500 (~£1,190) in cash and $1,300 (~£1,030) in skins.

Tradeit League FE Masters is a women’s Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) competition. Its inaugural edition was held in February with a prize pool of $500 (~£396) plus skins.

The second event will see 16 teams, including BIG Equipa, GUILD, and Ninjas in Pyjamas Impact, compete on April 6th – 7th. With a single-elimination BO3 format, the first round of competitions and the Quarterfinals will be played on day one. The second day features the semifinals and Grand Final.

Founded in 2017, Tradeit.gg is a game skin trading platform where players can trade, buy, or sell CS2, RUST, and Team Fortress 2 skins. In 2023, the company became the official skin marketplace partner of French esports organisation Team Vitality.

This year, Tradeit partnered with esports event organiser EPIC.LAN and CS circuit BLAST Premier.

Tradeit is not the only organisation that has invested in gender-diverse competitive opportunities this year. True Gamers and Sony, as well as SideQuest, have hosted events aimed at women and gender minorities.

Similarly, Rocket League esports recently announced a partnership with bank holding company Ally Financial to jointly organise three women-only tournaments.

Women’s esports continues to grow in 2024 as esports organisations remain invested in gender diversity and more leagues include women’s teams.
