    What is a Right-To-Buy (RTB)?

    Your Exclusive Pass to FIFA Tournament Tickets

    Access to FIFA World Cup™ matches is famously difficult. Millions of fans enter ticket lotteries where overwhelming demand means a ticket is never guaranteed.

    This is where the Right-To-Buy (RTB) comes in. An RTB is an official FIFA allocation for FIFA Collect users that secures your opportunity to purchase a ticket to a FIFA World Cup 26™ match.

    Each RTB specifies how many tickets you can buy, and for which match or event. Owning an RTB does not include the ticket itself—it gives you access to purchase tickets during a dedicated window.

     

     

    How Can You Get an RTB?

    You can acquire RTB Collectibles in five main ways:

    • Direct Purchase (Glory Drops): Glory Drops are exclusive packs where RTBs can be bought directly. These are highly sought after and sell out quickly.
    • Surprise Packs: These packs contain a mix of collectibles and rewards. Each pack opening is unique, and sometimes you might find an RTB, but there’s no guarantee in every pack.
    • Winning Challenges: Certain challenges offer RTBs as rewards for completing specific tasks or milestones.
    • Marketplace: RTBs can be bought and sold with other fans on the FIFA Collect Marketplace. If you’re looking for something specific, it’s the place to be.
    • Special Airdrops: Occasionally, RTBs are directly airdropped into the accounts of eligible users as exclusive rewards for participating in special events or as a surprise bonus.

    How Does an RTB Work?

    Imagine holding the key to the world’s biggest football event—no lottery, no waiting, just you and the FIFA World Cup 26™. That’s what an RTB gives you. Here’s what to know:

    • No Action Needed Yet: Keep your RTB safe in your account for now.
    • Conversion Window: We will announce the conversion window at a later date to use your RTB to buy your ticket. You’ll have to purchase your ticket within this window—after it closes, your RTB expires.
    • Stay Informed: All further details and instructions will be communicated by email and on FIFA Collect as the tournament approaches.
    • Sitting Together: Use the same email for all RTB conversions, even if the RTB holder names are different. Email [email protected] during the window to request group seating. We’ll do our best but can’t guarantee it for larger groups due to high demand.
    • Paired RTBs: RTBs for two tickets will be seated together.

     

     

    Key Things to Know

    • No Limit on RTBs: You can own multiple RTBs, however ticket purchase limits may apply per match, based on FIFA’s ticketing policies.
    • Expiration: RTBs are only valid for the specified event and window (not yet announced).
    • Stay Informed: Always check your email and the FIFA Collect platform for updates and instructions.
