Struggling Shabana go cashless with launch of e-ticketing system

FKF Premier League side Shabana FC has announced the launch of an E-Ticketing system for match ticket purchases, set to revolutionize the way fans attend their games.

Tore Bobe's management introduced this digital innovation on Friday, aiming to enhance the overall fan experience and ensure a smoother and safer entry into the stadium.

This exciting development is scheduled to debut during Shabana FC's much-anticipated clash against KCB FC on December 2, 2023, set to be played at Raila Odinga Stadium in Homa Bay.

With this move, the club is taking a significant step towards modernizing the ticketing process and eliminating the hassle of queuing at the home stadium, becoming the second club in the top-flight league after AFC Leopards to roll out its cashless ticketing.

In a statement sent on Friday, Shabana FC's chairman Jared Nivaton  expressed his enthusiasm for this milestone.

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen of our great Shabana team. I am glad to inform you that our ticketing challenges are now a thing of the past," he wrote.

"We have now officially gone online with e-ticketing. Our communication team will share the links shortly and also post instructions."

The introduction of the E-Ticketing system reflects Shabana FC's commitment to staying at the forefront of technology and ensuring that their fans have a convenient and efficient way to secure their tickets.

This move aligns with the broader trend in the sports industry, where digitalization has become increasingly prevalent, making it easier for fans to engage with their favorite teams.

The benefits of this new system are manifold. Firstly, fans will have the convenience of purchasing tickets from the comfort of their homes or on-the-go, eliminating the need to stand in long queues at the stadium.

This not only saves time but also minimizes physical contact, which is particularly relevant in today's health-conscious environment.

Furthermore, the E-Ticketing system will enhance security measures at Shabana FC matches.

By digitizing ticketing, the club can more effectively monitor attendance and ensure that all attendees have valid tickets.

The move to E-Ticketing reinforces Shabana FC's commitment to setting high standards, not only on the field but also in how they interact with their dedicated fanbase.

As Jared Nivaton aptly put it, "Shabana will always set the standards. Thank you all, and let's join hands and support our boys going forward."
