It’s always good to see businesses doing well in these challenging times and so it is with Future Ticketing who have signed up two new teams in the English Football league ahead of next season.

The Tullamore based business has signed up Fleetwood Town FC and Rochdale AFC in multi-year ticketing partnerships starting with the 2020-2021 season.

The move into English Football follows from Future Ticketing’s successful partnerships with clubs in the Scottish League, SSE Airtricity League of Ireland, Northern Ireland Football League and Vanarama League.

The cloud-based ticketing provider now works with over seventy UK and Ireland organisations.

“Future Ticketing has partnered very successfully with 23 professional Football Clubs in Scotland and Ireland over the last three years and expansion into The English League is the next natural step for us,” said CEO Liam Holton.

“Our football successes in Ireland, Northern Ireland and Scotland gave us a great platform to expand further in the UK and so we are delighted that Fleetwood Town and Rochdale have become early adopters of our market-leading software.”

“Our guiding philosophy is to enable our clients to have control, accountability and transparency of their customer relationships and revenue streams.”

“We work with Football clubs in their digital development of modernizing their ticketing system through data, analytics, our open Rest API, insights and integrations. We have found both clubs to put their
fans at the centre of their plans across all aspects of the customer journey from booking seats to having a great match-day experience at the stadia.”

Fleetwood Town is managed by Joey Barton and had enjoyed a very successful season prior to lockdown and are strong contenders for promotion to the Championship.

“We’re really pleased to announce this new partnership between Fleetwood Town FC and Future Ticketing,” said Club CEO Steve Curwood.

“Supporters can expect to see exciting changes to the way ticketing is done at the club from the start of the 2020/21 season, as we continue to enhance the experience of fans inside Highbury Stadium.”

Rochdale are one of the longest established clubs in the English League and made headlines this season with a great cup run including a draw with Newcastle United under young manager Brian Barry-Murphy from Cork.
