In May, we announced that Credit Karma had joined us as the Official Fintech Partner of the 2021 North American VALORANT Challenger Series. The free-to-use consumer finance platform — which currently boasts over 100 million members in North America — is eager to support VCT NA action as the competition enters Stage 3.

Throughout VCT Stage 3 — North America, Credit Karma will present the Instant Karma* Moment, an in-game highlight that showcases a moment when players help lead their team to victory through a selfless action. Baiting a favorable trade through a risky swing, setting up the perfect entry by feinting at a different site, resurrecting a crucial ally or communicating a decisive piece of intel — these instances of positive karma often decide rounds, if not entire matches, and the Instant Karma Moment will be there to capture and celebrate them.

Instant Karma Moment won’t be confined to the VCT NA broadcast. Outside of the tournament’s main stream, Credit Karma will support smaller VCT NA creators and aspiring pros during Stage 3, providing gift subs for select live VCT NA streams during match days.

Credit Karma will also offer a bonus** to the VALORANT community for signing up for a new Credit Karma Money Spend account***. Credit Karma Money is a money experience available on Credit Karma’s platform which simplifies everyday spending, freeing more time to focus on the game. North American players who sign up for a Credit Karma Money Spend account can receive $10 that they can use towards their next VALORANT in-game purchase. It’s a step closer to the Judge skin you’ve always dreamed of.
