More and more sports franchises are playing ball with biometric ticketing options for fans. Major League Baseball (MLB) and European soccer leagues have thus far led the way. The NFL is the latest major sports league to get on side with biometric ticketing. Wicket will provide league-wide digital credentialing and computer vision for biometric gate systems to be deployed in the upcoming season. In the Belgian Pro League, the Planet Group Arena (formerly Ghelamco Arena) in Ghent ran a trial of palm-based ticketing with Perfect ID and palm vein biometrics firm Palmki. Likewise, Veridas has provided biometric access control systems at El Sadar stadium in Spain, currently home to La Liga’s Osasuna football club. Italy’s Lega Serie A has plans to implement facial recognition at all of its clubs’ stadiums. https://www.biometricupdate.com/202406/biometric-ticketing-a-hit-with-major-sports-leagues
