GoTyme Bank proudly announces its official partnership with the Philippine Football Federation (PFF), marking a significant step in its mission to support Filipino talent on the global stage. Through this beautiful partnership, GoTyme Bank serves as the Official Bank of the Philippine Football Federation, aiming to help elevate Philippine football while reinforcing its position as a trusted and globally-minded financial institution.
Empowering Athletes and Building a Legacy Through Football
GoTyme Bank, a dynamic player in the Philippine financial landscape, has always sought to differentiate itself from traditional banks by offering world-class banking experiences. By aligning with the PFF, a fellow rising star in its own field, the bank takes a bold step toward strengthening its ties with communities that value resilience, ambition, and grit-qualities shared by athletes and the GoTyme Bank brand.
With sports having an unparalleled ability to bring people together and ignite national pride, GoTyme Bank aims not just to support football as a sport but to champion the dreams of countless Filipinos who see football as a path to success.
The partnership will span the next three years, focusing on comprehensive development from grassroots programs to global competitions. Key initiatives include:
• GoTyme Bank Cup 2025: Launching the inaugural GoTyme Bank Cup, a premier football tournament that will bring together men’s and women’s national teams from the Philippines, South Africa, Vietnam, and Singapore. This landmark event aspires to become the most prestigious football tournament in the region.
• Support for National Teams: PFF’s national teams, coaches, and players will serve as brand ambassadors for GoTyme Bank. The bank’s products will be integrated into the team’s financial operations, including allowances for both domestic and international use, highlighting GoTyme Bank’s robust international travel offerings.
• Fan Engagement: Football fans can look forward to exclusive perks such as limited edition fan merchandise, the chance to win free or discounted tickets, meet-and-greet events with players, and community watch parties to rally behind the national team.
• Grassroots Development Programs: A series of outreach programs will also be started this year by GoTyme Bank. These initiatives will be aimed at nurturing young talents across the Philippines through active community engagement, youth sports development, and financial education to empower the next generation of Filipino athletes.
• Impact Through GoTyme Bank Branding: GoTyme Bank will be with the PFF every step of the way, in every corner of the field —from the players’ jerseys, to the stadium and fan zone, where visitors can open GoTyme Bank accounts and use their GoTyme Bank accounts to buy food and beverages, even football merch.
Furthermore, as part of the partnership, GoTyme Bank pledges to provide athletes access to world-class banking, helping players stay on top of their finances both locally and internationally.
Unlocking Potential in Consumers, in the Community
GoTyme Bank’s foray into sports is a natural extension of its mission to unlock potential at every stage of the journey. “We understand that success isn’t a straight path-it’s full of hurdles. That’s something we see in sports every day,” says GoTyme Bank CEO Nate Clarke. “There is an undeniable love for football in the country, and it’s only continuing to grow. Our partnership with the PFF allows us to be there for athletes and fans alike. We want to be part of the story of bringing Philippine football onto the global stage.”
The Philippine Football Federation shares GoTyme Bank’s vision of elevating Philippine football to new heights. Together, they aim to create a platform where Filipino talent can thrive, both locally and internationally.
“This is the first time we are partnering with a bank, and we couldn’t have found a better ally than GoTyme Bank,” said Freddy Gonzalez, Director of Senior National Football Teams. “We both share the goal of bringing Philippine football further, not only by supporting our national teams but also by developing training camps for young kids. This is a shared vision that shows GoTyme Bank is the right partner to help us build the future of Filipino football.”
