About SPay Inc dba Stack Sports

SPay, Inc. does business as Stack Sports and is a SaaS company that provides software solutions for sports organizations, including payment processing, registration, event management, recruiting, and league and club operations. The company serves national governing bodies, youth sports associations, leagues, clubs, coaches, and athletes, with clients that include the U.S. Soccer Federation, Little League Baseball and Softball, and Pop Warner Little Scholars. Stack Sports reports nearly 50 million users across 35 countries and is headquartered in Plano, Texas. Because the platform processes payment card transactions for sports registrations and events, it handles financial information that is attractive to payment-skimming attackers.

What Happened?

SPay Inc dba Stack Sports was listed in a California Attorney General sample breach notice filed on July 27th, 2026. According to the company’s consumer notification letter, an unauthorized actor injected malicious code—a web skimmer—into the checkout process of the Sports Affinity Platform. The skimmer was capable of capturing payment card information entered by consumers during checkout. The incident window began on or about May 8th, 2026. Stack Sports detected the suspicious activity on June 8th, 2026 through internal security monitoring, removed the malicious code from its servers by June 10th, 2026, and forcibly cleared residual code from affected customer browser caches by June 22nd, 2026. The company completed its review of impacted transactions and identified affected individuals by July 17th, 2026, with consumer notification letters dated July 27th, 2026.

The incident was limited to users of the Sports Affinity Platform who accessed the checkout process during the incident window. It did not affect other Stack Sports platforms, including Sports Connect Club, nor did it involve data stored on the platform. The company stated in its notice that it does not believe the incident constitutes a breach under certain applicable laws but chose to notify consumers proactively. Utah Youth Soccer Association independently confirmed on June 24th, 2026 that Stack Sports had reported a credit card data breach in the payment portal, and noted that account information on the Sports Connect Association Platform was not believed to be affected. No ransomware group involvement or threat actor attribution has been identified in connection with this incident.
