NXP Brings Better Fan Experience to 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup with Secure Contactless Ticketing and Communication
June 29 2017 - 4:22PM
As the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup heads into the championship
game, thousands of fans attending this world-class football event
also enjoyed convenient and secure access to Russia’s spectacular
stadiums with NXP-enabled contactless smart-card technology. Thanks
to NXP MIFARE product technology in the electronic tickets for the
event, fans had quick, secure stadium access to the matches.
NXP is the leader in contactless smart card technology for
international sporting events around the world, and the usage of
the MIFARE-based solutions at the FIFA Confederations Cup, the
world’s fourth largest international sports tournament, highlights
another achievement in the use of MIFARE for secure contactless
access and connectivity. Specifically, the MIFARE Ultralight EV1
promotes efficiency for access with improved protection against
counterfeit tickets, saving fans time to get into an event and to
their seats.
“Whether you’re a Chilean or German fan, attendees joining the
tournament in Saint Petersburg can expect secure, safe and
efficient access,” said Markus Staeblein, vice president and
general manager secure mobility and retail at NXP. “We are proud
that MIFARE products have been chosen to support the fan experience
at this event.”
