FIFA Scrambles to Charge Fans After Free World Cup 2026 Ticket Glitch
FIFA has confirmed a checkout error that let about 60 supporters secure 2026 World Cup tickets for free. The glitch assigned tickets at 0 USD due to a payment issue during the online sale. The governing body has now reserved those tickets but asked affected fans to pay the correct price within seven days. Failure to complete payment may lead to ticket cancellations. The mistake reportedly involved group-stage matches in Toronto. FIFA expressed regret for the inconvenience as ticketing procedures come under growing scrutiny. The tournament will be held across the US, Canada and Mexico with 48 teams and more than 100 matches.
