Auckland Darts Masters prize money
The PDC has paid £120k across the two editions of the Auckland Darts Masters we hold, from 2017 to 2018. The 2018 pot was £60,000 between sixteen players, the World Series leg in Auckland, eight invited PDC players drawn against eight Oceanic qualifiers, and Michael van Gerwen took £20,000 of it.
A darts player is paid once, for where the run ended, so every pound of a pot lands on exactly one player and the two pots below add up to the £120,000 the field has shared. Kyle Anderson has taken more out of the Auckland Darts Masters than anyone else: £22,500 from two appearances. Both were played at The Trusts Arena, Auckland.

The pot, season by season
season running total
The prize fund has been £60,000 in every one of the two editions we hold, and winning it has paid £20,000 each time. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches £120,000.
What each finishing place pays
The five bands at the 2018 Auckland Darts Masters
Nothing here stacks. A player who lost in the semi-finals collected £5,000 and not that plus every band beneath it, which is why the five bands come to £60,000 rather than to the £38,750 a ladder reading would put on the champion alone. The 2018 rate card has the players in each band and what the band paid out.
