FC Augsburg extends partnership with VR-Bank until 2028!
A strong commitment to a proven partnership! FC Augsburg and VR-Bank Handels- und Gewerbebank eG are setting an impressive example by extending their exclusive partnership early by two years until at least 2028. Instead of until 2026, we can now hope for fruitful cooperation until 2028! The two institutions pursue common goals that go far beyond the classic sponsorship relationship.
The VR-H&G Bank, an experienced partner in the region, plays a central role in the WWK ARENA's modern payment system. For over a year, fans have been able to pay effortlessly with the girocard, debit and credit cards as well as via Apple Pay and Google Wallet. This massive improvement in the user experience in the arena is possible thanks to the support of VR Payment and ProfiPay. Michael Ströll, Managing Director of FCA, enthuses: “This collaboration creates a contemporary and uncomplicated experience for our fans!”
Long-term cooperation with many advantages
Georg Schneider, CEO of VR-Bank, is pleased with this decision and emphasizes that the FCA's support has been an important part of its identity for almost 30 years. Both partners, with deep roots in the region, are determined to further strengthen this remarkable partnership. Simon Wortmann, Senior Director SPORTFIVE, emphasizes that the early extension shows the success and ongoing development of both partners. VR-H&G Bank benefits from a tailor-made sponsorship package aimed at customer retention and acquisition.
The modern branch of the VR-H&G Bank on Annastrasse remains the official sales point for FCA tickets and fan merchandise. Here, loyal supporters can not only secure tickets, but also stock up on jerseys and fan merchandise. Particularly noteworthy is the “FCA girocard”, which not only offers modern payment options, but also offers attractive bonus benefits for FCA fans. By extending the partnership, VR-Bank secures national exclusivity in the WWK ARENA and will be omnipresent with its logo at all events and in the club's official media. This is a real competition for the fans and the club!
