CLEAR Adds The Baltimore Orioles, Minnesota Twins and Texas Rangers to its Growing Network of Sports Partners
Fans at Comerica Park in Detroit and Globe Life Park in Arlington will be able to do the same later this month.
CLEAR,
the secure identity company using biometrics to build a frictionless and
secure world, announced today three new Major League Baseball (MLB) club
partnerships and the expansion of its innovative Biometric Ticketing
(BT) solution at additional stadiums across the U.S.
New stadiums added to the CLEAR network for the 2019 MLB season are
Globe Life Park, home to the Texas Rangers, Target Field, home to the
Minnesota Twins, and Oriole Park at Camden Yards, home to the Baltimore
Orioles. CLEAR’s identity platform is now used by 18 MLB, National
Basketball Association (NBA), National Football League (NFL), and Major
League Soccer (MLS) teams to make the game day experience safer and
easier for fans.
Building off last season’s successful pilot of biometric ticketing with
the New York Mets, MLB, and Tickets.com, fans attending opening day at
Citi Field in New York will be able to enter the ballpark with the tap
of a finger, instead of presenting a paper or mobile ticket. Fans at
Comerica Park in Detroit and Globe Life Park in Arlington will be able
to do the same later this month. CLEAR members can use this experience
after linking their CLEAR and MLB.com accounts at http://my.clearme.com/mlb.
Biometric Ticketing will be available at additional stadiums later in
the season.
“As competition for consumer attention increases, sports teams, leagues,
and venues want fans to be able to get into the game safely, get food
and drinks, and get to their seats with fewer hassles,” said CLEAR’s
Head of Sports Ed O’Brien. “With CLEAR, venues can focus more of their
time personalizing and enhancing the game-day experience so fans can
enjoy more of what they came to see.”
As the Official Biometric Identity and Ticketing Partner of Major League
Baseball, CLEAR will also be rolling out CLEAR Lanes at MLB Jewel Events
to offer fans a faster, more secure entry experience. This July, CLEAR
will be available at Progressive Field in Cleveland during the 2019
All-Star Week, and later this year, during Postseason games at select
ballparks. CLEAR is currently available at the following MLB ballparks:
1. Citi Field (New York Mets) BT
2. Comerica Park (Detroit Tigers) BT
3. Coors Field (Colorado Rockies)
4. Globe Life Park (Texas Rangers) BT
5. Oakland-Alameda Coliseum (Oakland A’s)
6. Oracle Park (San Francisco Giants)
7. Oriole Park at Camden Yards (Baltimore Orioles)
8. SunTrust Park (Atlanta Braves)
9. Target Field (Minnesota Twins)
10. T-Mobile Park (Seattle Mariners) BP
11. Yankee Stadium (New York Yankees)
The company’s Biometric Payments & Age Validation solution (BP), which
recently won a SXSW Interactive Innovation Award and is one of four
finalists being considered by Sports Business Journal for their
prestigious "Best in Sports Technology" honor is available at T-Mobile
Park, home to the Seattle Mariners. Members are able to buy food and
drinks, and simultaneously prove that they are of legal age for alcohol
purchases -- with a single touch. CLEAR is working closely with MLB
teams and local liquor board representatives across the country to make
this time-saving, secure concessions solution available to more fans
this season.
Today, more than 3 million CLEAR members enjoy secure and frictionless
experiences at airports, sports stadiums and beyond. Fans can enroll in
CLEAR Sports for free at any arena or stadium in CLEAR’s nationwide
