NEW YORK, June 11, 2018 – CLEAR, the company building a connected world that’s smarter and more secure through its biometric identity platform, announces its expansion into the stadiums of two Major League Soccer teams. By partnering with CLEAR, teams provide a frictionless and more secure fan experience.

New teams in the rapidly growing CLEAR network include the Los Angeles Football Club (LAFC) at the new Banc of California Stadium and the San Jose Earthquakes at Avaya Stadium. The new partnerships are the latest in CLEAR’s nationwide sports expansion, which now covers 13teams within MLB, the NBA and MLS.

Fans enjoy expedited entry into games by enrolling for free at any of CLEAR’s sports locations. The company is also developing additional biometric-powered stadium experiences, including biometric ticketing and biometric payments for concessions and merchandise purchases. This will allow fans at participating venues to enjoy a frictionless game day experience from the gate to their seat.

“We’re thrilled to expand further into soccer, and work hand-in-hand with these two innovative professional sports teams to provide fans the most enjoyable, hassle-free game day experience possible,” said Lauren Stangel, VP, Sports & Entertainment at CLEAR. “Teams and fans are very excited about the new ways we’ll be expanding the platform to improve the fan experience, including biometric concessions and ticketing. There’s a lot more to come.”

“Our organization is always pursuing new avenues to enhance the overall fan experience both inside and outside of Avaya Stadium,” said Earthquakes Chief Operating Officer Jared Shawlee. “Adding CLEAR’s fast and free service will give our fans an easy pathway into the stadium on match day.”

“A creative, first-class and innovative guest experience at Banc of California Stadium is our top priority,” said LAFC Vice President of Information Technology, Christian Lau. “Providing our fans and supporters with onsite CLEAR enrollment and verification lanes helps us accomplish that goal, and we look forward to working together on new, expanded biometric initiatives in the near future.”
