The Professional Darts Corporation is proud to welcome Vanquis as its official banking partner.
This marks the next chapter in their exciting partnership following 5 years of being a sponsor through their vehicle finance brand, Moneybarn.
The collaboration will officially launch at the 2024/25 World Darts Championship at London’s iconic Alexandra Palace. Vanquis will connect with PDC fans through branding on tournament stages and player shirts, ticket promotions, event and digital activations, and content collaborations with leading darts stars.
As part of the partnership, the Vanquis logo will feature on the stage branding during the 2024/25 World Championship, running from December 15 to January 3.
This year’s championship will see world number one Luke Humphries defend his title against a star-studded 96-player field.
Vanquis, the UK’s largest specialist finance provider for financially underserved customers, serves 1.75 million people through its brands Vanquis, Moneybarn, and Snoop.
Listed on the London Stock Exchange, Vanquis offers credit cards, money management tools, vehicle finance, and second-charge mortgages.
Guided by their purpose, “caring banking to help customers make the most of life’s opportunities,” Vanquis is committed to promoting financial inclusion and supporting social mobility across the UK.
"We are delighted to welcome Vanquis as our Official Banking Partner,” said PDC Chief Executive Matt Porter.
“It has been great to work with Moneybarn throughout the last five years, and our new partnership with Vanquis will provide an exciting alignment between their consumers and our fanbase.
