Thrillz has raised £1.3m in funding from investors including Kerry Katona since launching last year.
“We are absolutely delighted to welcome Nigel,” said CEO Anjan Luthra.
Farage’s biography on the site reads: “Outside of London, I get treated as a hero and never have to buy a drink. In London, I need full-time security!”
A short personalised message costs £74, whereas a Farage appearance at a virtual business event runs to £4,500.
