SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Syracuse University Athletics on Wednesday announced plans to implement mobile ticketing as the “only” ticketing option for Syracuse football, men’s and women’s basketball, and men’s lacrosse, beginning with the 2020 football season.
Printed tickets will no longer be available.
As the school monitors the “evolving landscape” of hosting athletic events during the COVID-19 pandemic, it calls mobile ticketing “an effort to be prepared to manage any future schedule changes and work toward a contactless environment,” per a Wednesday news release.

Imagine this. You have an employee who is on leave pursuant to the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and you discover that the employee is working for another employer.
Syracuse Athletics says benefits of mobile ticketing include contactless entry, “enhanced convenience and efficiency with quicker” movement through venue entry points, improved security against counterfeit or stolen tickets, and the ability to transfer tickets electronically to family and friends.
Digital or mobile ticketing is a “trend we are seeing across the nation” and will likely become standard operating procedure across all venues going forward, Syracuse Athletics said.
In 2019, 25 percent of all Syracuse football tickets and 30 percent of all Syracuse men’s basketball tickets were redeemed as mobile tickets for entry to games.
Fans can access and manage all season and individual game tickets via their MyCuse account.
