FIFA World Cup 2026 tickets: how the Supporter Entry Tier works

The Supporter Entry Tier will sit within a wider ticket structure and will be controlled by each Participating Member Association. These national associations will define who qualifies, how fans apply, and how many tickets go to different supporter categories. FIFA has asked them to make sure these cheaper tickets are directed towards committed followers closely tied to their teams.

Each Participating Member Association will divide its total fan allocation into several price levels. Half of that allocation must fall into the lowest price brackets, with 40% assigned to the Supporter Value Tier and 10% reserved for the new Supporter Entry Tier. The remaining 50% will be split between Supporter Standard and Premier Tiers for the same fan bases.

FIFA World Cup 2026 tickets: draw process and refund rules

Fans apply for FIFA World Cup 2026 tickets through FIFA.com/tickets, where the current phase uses a random selection draw. Every request has the same chance of success, regardless of when it is submitted during the window. This system is intended to avoid advantages based on application speed or time zones.

The Supporter Entry Tier also includes a measure for those whose national sides exit early. Fans who bought these tickets and whose teams fail to reach the knockout stage will be able to receive refunds on unused matches. In those cases, FIFA says administrative fees on the refunded applications will be waived.
