In the title salt, [Ni(C12H14N6O)2](CF3SO3)2·2CH3OH, the Ni(II) ion is coordinated by six N atoms from two tridentate 1-meth-oxy-2,2,2-tris-(pyrazol-1-yl)ethane ligands in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. The Ni(II) ion is situated on an inversion centre. The Ni-N distances range from 2.0589 (19) to 2.0757 (19) Å, intra-ligand N-Ni-N angles range from 84.50 (8) to 85.15 (8)°, and adjacent inter-ligand N-Ni-N angles range between 94.85 (8) and 95.50 (8)°. In the crystal, O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between methanol solvent mol-ecules and tri-fluoro-methane-sulfonate anions are observed.
