The stadium is adapting to new technologies and now there is access to games at Camp Nou and the Camp Nou Experience without the need to print out tickets.

FC Barcelona continue working hard to put technological innovations at the service of their members and fans to make their lives easier. As such, the Club has initiated the Mobile Ticket project, a service that allows fans and members to store match tickets or Camp Nou Experience tickets on their mobile devices without the necessity to print them and bring them physically to the ground. From now on, mobile is just the ticket.

The Mobile Ticket scheme is practical and very simple to use. Once you have downloaded the application according to you mobile device operating system (Passbook for iPhone and iPod or PassWallet for Android tablets and phones), you simply follow the instructions.

Didac Lee, Barça director responsible for New Technologies, places this project within the Club’s desire globally to offer services to fans and members: “The objective in the area of technology is to bring the Club closer to members and fans and we believe the mobile is the most useful tool to do this, because it is within everybody’s reach and it opens us the possibility of making this relation easier. The Mobile Ticket scheme is an example of how technology can make access to the ground easier and more comfortable, and it is not the only service of this type. Soon we will be announcing new functions for mobile devices that will allow fans and members to improve their experience with the Club.”

This service is now fully functional to use for matches at Camp Nou and for the Camp Nou experience.

Below we explain how exactly it works.

1) On your iPhone or iPod Touch the Passbook application is already installed. For Android devices it is necessary to download the PassWallet application.

2) Buy your match ticket or your ticket for the Camp Nou Experience at fcbarcelona.com.

3) When you receive e-mail confirmation from the Club, add your tickets directly to Passbook or PassWallet.

4) Validate the QR code that appears in Mobile Ticket at the turnstiles at the stadium or for the Camp Nou Experience.
