As well as the top tier of the non league pyramid, the National League North and South divisions will also have the same new sponsor from next season.
The leagues have been sponsored by Vanarama from five years after they replaced Skrill, but the company’s sister brand, Motorama, will takeover from them until the 2021/22 season.

Chief Executive Officer of The National League, Michael Tattersall said: “Following five seasons as the Vanarama National League, we are delighted to be signing up for a further three seasons as the Motorama National League.
“Our relationship with the Autorama Group goes from strength to strength, and is a classic case of football sponsorship delivering value and helping to create a leading consumer brand.”
Andy Alderson, the CEO of Autorama Group added: “We’re delighted to be continuing our relationship with The National League.
“It will allow Motorama to enjoy the prestige of being title sponsor of one of the UK’s most popular football leagues and get its message that people CAN lease the cars they want – rather than settle for something they can find on a used dealer’s forecourt – to an engaged audience of enthusiastic fans.”
