The league was launched in 1995 sponsored by the local federation (Andorran Football Federation) which was created just one year before. Until then, clubs had played since 1970 in an amateur league without a structure or affiliation with any official institution.[2] Since affiliation to UEFA and FIFA in 1996, Andorran clubs are able to compete in the UEFA competitions.[3] Until 2015 the league was known as Lliga Grup Becier[4] and during 2016 Lliga Grup Sant Eloi.[5] It was renamed in 2017 as Lliga Multisegur Assegurances for sponsorship reasons.[1]
All the teams in the league play in the same stadiums owned by the federation. The same occurs in all other Andorran competitions, such as the Copa Constitució and Supercopa.
FC Andorra, one of the major clubs in the country based in Andorra la Vella have never played in this league. They play in the Spanish league system, and are registered with the Royal Spanish Football Federation.
