Middlesbrough FC expand digital ticketing

Middlesbrough Football Club has launched the next phase of its digital ticketing with more sections of the West Stand covered at the Riverside Stadium.

Digital ticketing was introduced at the Championship team’s venue from the start of the current season and now includes season card holders in blocks one to seven and blocks 65 to 76.

It gives fans the ability to store their tickets on a mobile phone with a single download which can then be used in the same way as a physical card by tapping it to the scanner upon entering the turnstiles on matchday.
