UK Open prize money
The PDC has paid £3.7m across the eight editions of the UK Open we hold, from 2015 to 2026. The 2026 pot was £750,000 between 160 players, the open draw, where every round is drawn at random and a tour card holder can come out against a qualifier, and Luke Littler took £120,000 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 eight pots below add up to the £3,700,000 the field has shared. Luke Littler has taken more out of the UK Open than anyone else: £232,500 from three appearances.

The pot, season by season
season running total
The prize fund has gone from £300,000 in 2015 to £750,000 in 2026, which is £450,000 more and 150% up. Winning it has moved with it, from £60,000 to £120,000, and the champion's share of the pot has gone from 20% to 16%. The dimmer column behind each season is the running total, which reaches £3,700,000.
What each finishing place pays
The ten bands at the 2026 UK Open
Nothing here stacks. A player who lost in the semi-finals collected £35,000 and not that plus every band beneath it, which is why the ten bands come to £750,000 rather than to the £261,250 a ladder reading would put on the champion alone. The 2026 rate card has the players in each band and what the band paid out.
