Credit ONE BANK® PARTNERS WITH WESTERN & SOUTHERN OPEN, BRINGING EXCITING “POSE WITH THE PROS” ACTIVATION
The latest in a long series of innovative and exciting partnerships, Las Vegas-based credit card company Credit One Bank has partnered with the Western & Southern Open, sponsoring the globally renowned tennis tournament and bringing their highly acclaimed “Pose With the Pros” experience to the event.
Debuting at the 2023 Credit One Charleston Open earlier this year, these photobooth stations bring a new element to commemorative photos at the stadium, adding in their favorite athletes to the photos to strike poses with. Fans can picture themselves alongside Ons Jabeur, Sloane Stevens, Madison Keys, Belinda Bencic and four new athletes across three activation areas from August 12 – 20.
Credit One Bank’s launch into the world of tennis started in 2021 when they became the title sponsor of the Charleston WTA 500 Tennis Tournament, the largest women’s-only tennis tournament in North America. The sponsorship also included a massive renovation to Charleston’s stadium, renaming it Credit One Stadium and adding over 3,000 new seats, 16 luxury suites, new training facilities for players, a VIP rooftop restaurant and bar and more.
“We are always looking for opportunities to get involved with the events we care about, so being able to partner with one of the largest tennis competitions in the world is something we are thrilled to be a part of,” said Christina Ortiz, sponsorships manager at Credit One Bank. “We have learned so much from our experiences in Charleston, so being able to use that knowledge to further expand for this tournament seemed like the best next step.”
The Bank is passionate about sports, also partnering with the Las Vegas Raiders and Vegas Golden Knights, and being the official credit card of NASCAR and the WWE, providing fans with exclusive offers, promotions and experiences.
