DUBAI, UAE, Aug. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Mitrade is sponsoring the World Snooker Tour (WST) for the 2026/27 season, aligning its brand with a sport built on composure and sustained focus under pressure. Snooker demands discipline and total concentration from a player facing a shifting table — qualities that reflect the broker’s advocacy for responsible, informed trading.
This global partnership lands as Mitrade’s growth accelerates. Since January 2026, the group reports that active trading clients increased 54% year on year, while the number of trades rose 79% and total lots traded grew 148%. The WST sponsorship provides Mitrade with a platform to engage with its growing community of traders and snooker fans and strengthen brand awareness across multiple markets.
“The World Snooker Tour is a prestigious platform with a global following, and we are proud to support its reach,” said Kevin Lai, Vice President of Mitrade Group. “The sport reflects qualities we value. Thoughtful decision-making, discipline, and respect for risk. It reinforces our responsible growth and commitment to helping traders understand markets, and we look forward to a relationship with WST’s community.”
“We are delighted to welcome Mitrade to the World Snooker Tour,” said Peter Wright, Chief Commercial Officer of WST. “This is a significant partnership with a dynamic global brand, and we are excited about working together across our European events. We look forward to seeing Mitrade become a prominent part of the World Snooker Tour throughout the season.”
Mitrade’s involvement with WST kicks off at the British Open in Cheltenham on 31 August 2026.
