Grand Slam of Darts prize money
The PDC has paid £6.0m across the eleven editions of the Grand Slam of Darts we hold, from 2015 to 2025. The 2025 pot was £650,000 between 32 players, the one tournament with a group stage, so a player can lose a match and still win it, and Luke Littler took £150,000 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 eleven pots below add up to the £5,950,000 the field has shared. Michael van Gerwen has taken more out of the Grand Slam of Darts than anyone else: £476,000 from eleven appearances.

The pot, season by season
season running total
The prize fund has gone from £400,000 in 2015 to £650,000 in 2025, which is £250,000 more and 63% up. Winning it has moved with it, from £100,000 to £150,000, and the champion's share of the pot has gone from 25% to 23%. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches £5,950,000.
What each finishing place pays
The seven bands at the 2025 Grand Slam of Darts
Nothing here stacks. A player who lost in the semi-finals collected £50,000 and not that plus every band beneath it, which is why the seven bands come to £622,000 rather than to the £320,250 a ladder reading would put on the champion alone. The 2025 rate card has the players in each band and what the band paid out.
