EXCERPT:
Support for NFC mobile ticketing forms part of SafeTix, a new Ticketmaster service that the company said “leverages new technology to give event owners control over their tickets by tying a unique, identifiable digital ticket to each fan’s mobile phone through an encrypted barcode that automatically refreshes every few seconds”.
“The tickets also include NFC technology that will allow fans to enter venues through a simple ‘tap and go’ experience at venue entrances,” it added.
“SafeTix will be used across NFL stadiums for the 2019 season and for a variety of touring artists.”
Ticketmaster said the service will also be rolled out at additional venues equipped with its existing Ticketmaster Presence NFC platform.
NFC ticketing is becoming increasingly popular at event venues. Los Angeles Football Club and FC Bayern Munich both introduced similar systems at their home grounds late last year.
The auto-refreshing encrypted barcodes that form part of SafeTix are designed to reduce fraudulent ticketing, improve communication with genuine ticket holders and make it easier for customers to transfer tickets legitimately, Ticketmaster said.
