• Future Ticketing and Clare extend partnership

• Banner renews contract with Irish-owned digital ticketing provider

• Clare introducing new Season Card with photo ID

Future Ticketing, the leading provider of ticketing software and services, is announcing a partnership renewal with Clare GAA. Clare GAA first teamed up with Future Ticketing in 2023 and the extended multi-year collaboration between the Banner County and the Offaly-based company underscores how successful the relationship has been.

Thanks to Future Ticketing’s cutting edge, Irish-developed software, Clare GAA attained full control of its ticketing three years ago and quickly saw the benefits of the system, including enhanced revenue access, ease of ticket purchase for supporters and data ownership.

Future Ticketing said the flexibility of its technology enables the implementation of custom-built solutions for individual County Boards. Future Ticketing has been a proud sponsor of hurling and football leagues in Clare through the willwego.com Clare and Cusack Cups with this year’s competitions beginning in March. For 2026, Clare GAA has introduced a Season Card for the club leagues and championships.  The Season Card, which includes a head and shoulders picture of the holder to facilitate identification, will ensure easy access to all club matches in the county, adult and underage.

Ann Marie Moran, Head of Operations, Clare GAA, said:

“Future Ticketing greatly assisted us with our online ticketing in 2023 and since then we have been very impressed with the level of support from the company and Future Ticketing’s awareness of our needs here in Clare. We have been able to improve our offering to supporters year on year and the seating plan for the 2025 county finals was a memorable milestone.  Now, with our photo ID Season Cards, available at Adult and OAP price points, Future Ticketing has facilitated another important step forward for the county.”

Greg Walker, Client Success Manager, Future Ticketing, said:

“In Future Ticketing we are proud of our deep understanding of Gaelic games so we were delighted last year to create and implement a seating plan for the Clare county finals, thereby ensuring an even better experience for supporters on the showpiece days for clubs in football and hurling. GAA fans were able to buy their tickets instantly online, and for the County Board, access control on match day was robust with quick and easy entry to the ground thanks to the Future Ticketing handheld scanners.”

Future Ticketing has a growing cohort of GAA partners and the agreement with Clare GAA follows recent confirmation of a new partnership with Laois GAA and deals with other County Boards across the country.
