CLEAR’s fast, simple and free one-time enrollment connects members to any touch point in the nationwide network of 35 sports stadiums and airports, with fans enjoying expedited entry into games.
Additionally, CLEAR is developing new biometric-powered stadium experiences, to include ticketing and concessions, enabling fans at participating venues to enjoy a frictionless, personalized game day experience from security to their seat.
Working with the State of Washington, CLEAR is paving the way for biometric age validation at WA-based venues this year, which can enable experiences such as frictionless alcohol sales and more.
CLEAR will pursue expanding availability of this product to more states in the coming months.
“We are excited to partner with these innovative teams to add a layer of security and improve the fan experience at the ballpark,” said Caryn Seidman Becker, CEO of CLEAR.
“We’re also thrilled with Washington’s support of our biometric age validation platform and look forward to partnering with teams across the state to remove friction from another part of the game-day experience.”
“The Atlanta Braves continually strive for excellence in fan experience and security, so this partnership with CLEAR is perfect for SunTrust Park and the Braves,” said Mike Plant, Atlanta Braves President, Development.
“Adding dedicated CLEAR Lanes at Safeco Field provides our guests with a quick, convenient way to get into the ballpark without compromising security,” said Trevor Gooby, Seattle Mariners Vice President of Ballpark Operations.
“We are excited to introduce CLEAR’s innovative platform to the Coliseum,” said A’s COO Chris Giles.
“The quicker and easier access to the ballpark will enhance the fan experience, while maintaining our standards for safety and security.”
