The 2026/27 season planning window is open. For ticketing managers, now is the time to secure financial stability and keep tickets affordable.

Traditional lump-sum season tickets often mean off-season drop-offs and extra admin. A flexible subscription model changes everything.

TicketCo lets clubs offer manageable monthly instalments. No hidden finance fees, just predictable, year-round revenue.

See the results:
- Norwegian champions Viking FK cut churn and brought in more first-time buyers.
- In Ireland, Bohemian FC turned irregular sales into steady income, with the freedom to freeze or end subscriptions.
- Cornish Pirates boosted matchday sales and growth with digital-first season passes and subscriptions.

If you take over a stadium for a limited number of events, you shouldn't be using a legacy solution only because that is what is set up at that stadium.
Use TicketCo instead.

We recently partnered with the Northern Ireland Football League to deliver ticketing for the Bet McLean Cup Final at Windsor Park for the second year in a row. Even though the venue uses a different day-to-day ticketing provider, we executed a complete stadium takeover.

Did you know that Bandy, a sport now synonymous with Nordic winters, was actually born in the Fens of England? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿❄️

It might be a forgotten pastime in its birthplace, but in Sweden, it is absolutely thriving. The atmosphere at a classic outdoor match is something truly special, blending intense competition with a unique cultural spirit.

We recently took a deep dive into this fascinating history with our partners at Hammarby Bandy. They are keeping the outdoor spirit alive in Stockholm, drawing passionate crowds to Zinkensdamm for every home game.

At TicketCo, we are proud to support Hammarby Bandy by ensuring their ticketing and matchday operations run as smoothly as the ice they play on. It allows the club to focus on what matters most: the sport, the fans, and the tradition.
