Proposal: These recommendations are not statements of current fact, law or FIFA policy.
The 2026 pricing record
FIFA initially advertised group-stage tickets from USD 60 and much higher final prices. After supporter criticism, it introduced a USD 60 Supporter Entry Tier for qualified-team allocations across all 104 matches.
The additional tier was a substantive response. Questions remain about allocation volume, dynamic pricing, accessibility charges and whether ordinary supporters can understand the full price structure before committing to travel.
Digital by default, physical by choice
Digital admission can remain the standard. InFIFAntiNo proposes that supporters can also choose an official physical ticket, issued before the match and valid for stadium entry, optionally for a reasonable additional charge.
That means a real admission ticket containing match, date, venue and seating information — not merely a souvenir print produced after the event. The ticket can then remain an authentic record of the experience.
A supporter-centred standard
Ticket policy should publish price bands, allocation rules, accessibility terms, resale rules and data requirements in a stable, comparable form.
Fans are more than customers. A match ticket can be part of football culture, personal memory and the historical record of the game. The proposal is InFIFAntiNo's position, not current FIFA policy.
