Key Takeaways
- FC Bayern Munich will switch to fully digital tickets at Allianz Arena starting in the 2026-27 season.

FC Bayern Munich has confirmed that starting from the 2026-27 season, the club will move to a completely digital ticket system for Allianz Arena. The German record champions announced the change on Thursday evening.
Supporters will no longer receive paper tickets or PDF files. Instead, they must download the official FC Bayern Munich app or the Allianz Arena app to access their match passes. Once activated, the tickets will appear in the digital wallet within these applications.
Stadium staff will scan these digital passes at the turnstiles when fans enter the ground. However, the club will not support Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. Fans cannot use these third-party services to store or display their tickets at the entry gates.
Officials claim this move will create a more stable and uniform system. They believe it will end common problems such as torn or unclear tickets, duplicate downloads, and multiple printouts. All entry passes will remain secure within the official club apps.
The club also confirmed that ticket transfers will remain possible. However, supporters must use regulated channels to pass tickets to friends or family. This ensures all exchanges stay within the club’s secure system.
