Overview
- A Visa-cardholder registration lottery runs Sept. 10–19, with notifications from Sept. 29 and purchase time slots beginning Oct. 1.
- Entry-level prices start at $60 for group games and premium seats for the final can reach $6,730, with amounts subject to change under variable pricing.
- Additional registration windows follow on Oct. 27–31 and after the Dec. 5 draw, with a late first-come sale for any remaining inventory.
- Sales are online only with limits of up to four tickets per match and a maximum of 40 per person for the tournament’s 104 games across the U.S., Canada and Mexico.
- Supporter groups condemned the model as profiteering, while FIFA says it aims to optimize revenue for all 211 member associations, citing prior use of similar systems.
