LIGA MX, the top professional soccer league in Mexico, hosts more than 400 soccer games annually. To improve identity verification and access control, the league will implement FAN ID, facial recognition technology from Incode, across all stadiums in Mexico.
The league aims to help ensure stadiums are safe spaces for fans and families and create more connected, seamless experiences across the entire stadium with the technology. The implementation of FAN ID for game-day access aims to certify that those who enter a facility have completed the identity verification process and are cleared to attend LIGA MX matches. This is especially important given the recent uptick in violence at major league sports events, specifically LIGA MX in March 2022.
