NFL.com has published the digital ticket guide for the 2026 NFL Munich Game at FC Bayern Munich Stadium, setting the rules for how every fan will get into the building. All tickets will be digital, and each person attending will need their own ticket saved on a smartphone.
The timing matters because fans will not be able to sort this out at the last minute. Email links to download tickets will go out no later than 72 hours before gameday, and each email will include download buttons for Apple Wallet and Google Pay beside every seat purchased.
That means the job starts with the buyer, who must download their own ticket first and then forward any other tickets in the email to the rest of the group. The guide also spells out what devices can handle the process: All Face ID iPhones are supported except the iPhone 5s, digital ticketing is available on Apple Watch models, and Android users need the latest version of Android where possible, with Google Pay installed and up to date, NFC enabled and Google Chrome set as the default browser before clicking the ticket links. Samsung users may also need to set Google Pay as the default.
The one part that does not fit the cleanest version of that plan is simple enough to matter: the system is built around smartphones, but fans or guests without one are told to contact customer support. That leaves the guide doing two things at once — pushing everyone toward mobile entry while also acknowledging that not every attendee will arrive with the right device in hand.
The guide also includes the instructions fans will need once they reach the stadium, but it still leaves one question open for readers looking to plan the trip now: the exact gameday date has not been specified in the material released so far. What is clear is that ticketing will be handled digitally from the moment the email lands until the moment fans walk up to the gates.
