AstroTurf has partnered with PNC Vendor Finance to deliver customized and innovative customer finance solutions
North America’s most prestigious colleges, universities, high schools, and professional sports organizations count on PNC Vendor Finance to help their organization improve player and fan experiences, accelerate sales and create competitive advantages.
With proven industry experience in the development and implementation of finance solutions, PNC Vendor Finance specialists help AstroTurf clients meet their facility usage and budget needs.
Payments can be framed as fixed expenses that are built into an operating budget, rather than passing bonds. This arrangement also makes the process of replacing a field seamless — especially in combination with cooperative purchasing contracts.
Benefits of Financing with AstroTurf:
100% Cost Coverage
You can conserve cash for other needs. Base construction, installation, taxes, and other fees can be included in the financed amount. Plus, Rekortan running tracks and Laykold tennis courts can be financed with PNC Vendor Finance too!
Lowest Monthly Cost
With financing, you have use of your field with low monthly payments while you benefit from the use of the installation – without making up-front investments.
Conservation of Capital
With 100% total project financing, you are free to spend cash on other items to meet your facility’s needs.
Easier Budgeting
Since major expenses are included in one easy payment amount, budgeting your project expense over time is easier.

Fixed Payments
Payments are locked in now, avoiding the risk of potential rate increases due to higher costs in the future.
Flexible Financing Terms
Financing terms generally run from 36-84 months, depending on the type of project and your credit standing. At the end of the lease term, you own the field for $1.
Flexible Payment Structures
Payment plans can be structured to meet your individual, predictable cash flow.
Manufacturer Warranties
Warranties are passed directly to the client.
Preserves Available Credit
Financing with PNC Vendor Finance does not tie up existing bank lines of credit, so you have more available credit from your bank when you need it. Leasing doesn’t apply to bank loan covenants.
