GET INVOLVED
Sponsoring a playing card elevates your business's visibility with a fun and unique twist, as well as ensuring your business becomes an integral part of your town's story.
They're really rather splendid packs of playing cards and the definitive guide to those places. They include what's going on, places to visit and things to keep an eye out for, that you’d only know about if you live here.
Every sponsorship include a supersized framed version of your playing card too, as shown on the left.
Where next?
Yes, that's right. We're heading downstream to the really rather amazing Royal Borough of Windsor, and Eton too.
We’re currently curating the next Ace Places pack and inviting the cafés, pubs, restaurants, retailers, attractions, annual events and all-round brilliant places that help give the area its character to get in touch. If you run somewhere worth discovering, revisit-worthy, or proudly local, we’d love to hear from you.
As with all our packs, we include much-loved independents and hidden gems to iconic spots and favourite local haunts. So if that sounds like you, pop your details below and let’s have a chat.
The stakes are high!
Get noticed
Share with the world that your business is one of the best in town. You'll be the talk of the table and the ace up everyone's sleeve! Making it easy for those seeking the best experiences your town has to offer. Our pack serves as a curated guide, directing eager explorers from near and far straight to your doorstep.
Staying Power
Unlike traditional advertising, sponsoring a card offers lasting exposure. With only 54 cards in the pack, each one serving as a fully usable set of playing cards, your business remains in the hands, hearts and homes of customers long after the initial launch.
Help Folk Find You
Stand out in a crowded marketplace and position your business as a go-to destination. Secure your place in the pack and reap the rewards. Visitors want to find the places the locals frequent, those hidden gems and charming independents that aren’t the run-of-the-mill.
Extra Income
As well as boosting your visibility, sponsoring a card offers a genuine chance to earn extra income. Stock the packs in your shop or venue and watch them fly – they’re a hit with both visitors and proud locals looking for something unique and memorable.
Made to Be Gifted
Spread the love and watch your clients' faces light up with delight! Even if you're not able to retail, our cards make the perfect party favours, client gifts, or tokens of appreciation. Impress your clients with unique and memorable gifts that leave a lasting impression.
COMMUNITY spirit
Foster a sense of pride and belonging among locals by aligning your business with our pack. These aren’t just playing cards; they’re a symbol of community spirit and we're investing in the heart of these truly ace places, ensuring that every purchase contributes to the vibrancy and sustainability of your beloved town.
curating the pack
Let's keep things simple and transparent – here’s the deal:
NUMBER CARDS (2-10): £500 first year - £400 for year two onwards
ROYAL CARDS* : £650 first year - £500 for year two onwards
ACES £750 first year - £650 for year two onwards
Each card is awarded to a business, organisation or charity considered one of the best in town – based on what they offer, how they’re known locally, and how they shape the spirit of the place. Decisions are made case by case, with real care.
The cost is annual and comparable to a local print ad – but with far longer impact. Your card will feature in thousands of packs, seen again and again, played with, gifted, and remembered.
Apply below and tell us why your business deserves a playing card. *Jack, Queen, King - includes wild cards too
