""In total, 50% of each PMA allocation will fall within the most affordable range, namely supporter value tier (40%) and the supporter entry tier (10%)," FIFA said in a statement on Tuesday. "The remaining allocation is split evenly between the supporter standard tier and the supporter premier tier.""
""The prices set for the 2026 World Cup are scandalous, a step too far for many supporters who passionately and loyally follow their national sides at home and abroad," the FSA, an organization of supporters for England and Wales, said in a statement posted on its on Dec. 12."
FIFA created a supporter entry tier priced at $60 for every 2026 World Cup match, available to each qualified nation's participating member association. FIFA allocated 50% of each participating member association (PMA) allocation to the most affordable ranges: 40% supporter value tier and 10% supporter entry tier, with the remainder split evenly between supporter standard and supporter premier tiers. FIFA will waive administrative fees for PMA ticket buyers who request refunds when their team fails to advance. Ticket sales proceed in phased rounds with a random selection draw during the third phase. Prior to the new tier, the cheapest final ticket exceeded $4,000, prompting supporter criticism over dynamic pricing.
