The Philippine Football Federation hopes to boost the sport by hosting the 2025 GoTyme Bank Cup in September.

The planned tournament is expected to draw men’s football teams from various countries like Indonesia and South Africa, with Vietnam and Singapore contemplating on joining as well.

PFF, which announced its recent partnership with digital bank GoTyme, hopes it will become an annual competition as they also target to host a women’s competition next year.

“This will be an exciting event for our football team, a great challenge for us, which is really important,” said men's head coach Albert Capellas.

Aside from these plans, the partnership of PFF and GoTyme also extends in supporting the national teams, as well as promulgating a series of outreach programs for the youth.

“(Both PFF and GoTyme) share the same goal of bringing Philippine football further, not only by supporting our national teams, but also by developing training camps for young kids,” said Freddy Gonzalez, director of senior national football teams.

“This is a shared vision that shows GoTyme Bank is the right partner to help us build the future of Filipino football,” he added.

GoTyme Bank CEO Nate Clarke echoed the sentiment, adding: “There is an undeniable love for football in the country, and it’s only continuing to grow [and] our partnership with PFF allows us to be there for athletes and fans alike.”

"Every breakthrough is beautiful, and it is at this moment that great athletes are born. At the core of this partnership is GoTyme's commitment to furthering the sport by unlocking human potential at its earliest stage," GoTyme co-CEO and chief commercial officer Albert Tinio also said.
