Chase Sapphire World Cup Ticket Sales Details
Chase Sapphire World Cup ticket sales will begin on Tuesday, February 10th at 12:00 PM ET and will continue until February 24th, while supplies last. Tickets for the games will be on sale in all U.S. host cities and all tickets will be issued at once.
However, they will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis and supply is expected to be extremely limited. Purchasing tickets requires a FIFA account, so we strongly recommend you create one before selling.

Cardholders will need to verify their eligibility via a dedicated FIFA ticketing page, which will go live in the days leading up to the sale.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
- Tickets are sold directly through FIFA rather than through resale, and each cardholder can purchase up to four tickets per game, for a total of 40 tournament tickets.
- Tickets are not redeemable for points and must be purchased with an eligible Visa product.
- Each eligible cardmember may redeem a maximum of two purchase links, and each link may only make a maximum of one purchase.
While the verification link isn’t live yet, Chase recommends following Chase Sapphire on Instagram for updates. Interested cardholders should plan to log in and be ready when the promotion begins.
Which Chase Sapphire card is right for you?
Again, cardholder exclusive sales are limited to cardholders Chase Sapphire Reserve, Chase Sapphire Preferred, Chase Sapphire Commercial Reserve or the J.P. Morgan Reserve Credit Card (currently not accepting new applicants).
If you don’t already have a Sapphire card, there’s still time to apply before the sale starts, but you’ll want to act quickly. Each card offers a balanced mix of benefits, generous rewards and travel benefits designed to suit different spending habits, travel goals and budgets.
How to compare cards:
- Sapphire preferred: A great value option with an annual fee of $95, perfect for travelers who want flexible rewards and consistent travel benefits at no additional cost.
- Sapphire Reserve: Premium travel card with an annual fee of $795 that offers frequent travelers higher earning rates and luxurious benefits.
- Chase Sapphire Commercial Reserve: Built for business owners, this card combines high earning potential with premium travel benefits similar to a Personal Sapphire Reserve.
New cards usually arrive within 7-10 business days. If your application is denied, a quick call to Chase’s reconsideration hotline can sometimes help resolve minor issues – potentially getting you approval to sell in time.
bottom line
Tickets for the 2026 FIFA World Cup are expected to sell out quickly, making the Chase Sapphire cardholder exclusive sale an opportunity not to be missed.
