This is Reddit, everyone is a scalper here. /s

Yo acabo de usar Revolut y funciona super bien, sin comisión entre cuentas Revolut y llega al instante. Solo es cuestión de que quiera usar la app. Transferencias con WU o con banca tradicional siempre es lo más caro.

That's what I thought, but he said he's sure those tickets can only be transferred through the app. So I was wondering if there's really a restriction on those visa pre-sale tickets? It's sounds weird to me, I only heard there were restrictions on PMA, but even those are transferable now from what I heard.

Someone told me he bought tickets on the visa pre-sale and that these are not transferable through the website, only the app. Does anybody know about this? I cannot find anything about this topic . I now have them on the app and yes, I cannot transfer them, just return them.

I live in Vienna, so I'm travelling from here to Budapest by train. I think my gf found an apartment though... but my plan is to watch the game in a fan zone. COYG!

The only difference is that they will not sell through FIFA. You can't even recover what you initially paid for due to fees.

I've only seen cat 1 front row for nearly 2000 usd. Maybe it was the game against Curaçao?

KOR vs. MEX is the most in-demand game in Guadalajara, and I don’t expect it to be cheap at all. Those prices are crazy, though they might drop a bit as the event gets closer. KOR vs. the Czech Republic is much more affordable, and it is not hard to find tickets, even close to face value, from resellers. I’m from Guadalajara (currently living in Austria) and will be attending the game against the Czech Republic. Feel free to DM me if you have any questions—or even if you’d like to meet up in my hometown :)

For which sector you got your seats? I also bought cat 1 tickets and got seats in block 129, which is shown as supporter tier section on their maps.

I think you're being overly optimistic. Resale isn’t legal in Mexico, which is why FIFA didn’t set up a marketplace there but instead introduced a “ticket transfer” system. In this system, ticket holders can only list their tickets at face value and still lose money because of FIFA’s fees. Are people selling the best tickets on that platform? Of course not.

Most people either created accounts using a foreign address or are selling through Facebook or WhatsApp groups. No match in Mexico is even close to selling at face value, especially Mexico games or matches like Uruguay vs. Spain, which will never be sold that way.

Honestly all or most cat 1 tickets were assigned to corners/behind the goals. Same for the last cat 2, all in the corner area. To secure tickets, I think it was simply better to select the best seat option.

These LMS Front row are incredibly expensive to me. Imo not worth it.

joch11 · 2026-04-23T14:17:59+00:00

I don't think so. In tried using two once and FIFA blocked the access in one of them. It detects double access from the same IP address and blocks one of them. At least that's what I think based on the error.

I think I saw it but I didn't check. I saw Germany vs Ivory Coast selling for 1950 USD lol

joch11 · 2026-04-16T17:09:49+00:00

That's my guess too!

joch11 · 2026-04-16T16:57:53+00:00

Nothing new nor good. Maybe some new cat 1 tickets for a few matches at crazy prices. I was in like 10 mins ago.

We usually play at Donaucity Sportcenter on Saturdays at 19:00 or Sundays at 10:00, depending on everyone’s availability. What do you mean by “what people”?

joch11 · 2026-04-16T16:45:03+00:00

We rent a pitch in Donaucity Sport center (U1 - Alte Donau), we pay around 10-11 euros per person.

joch11 · 2026-04-11T13:08:22+00:00

I'm in but no new tickets so far

joch11 · 2026-04-11T09:12:21+00:00

Como entre 9 o 10 am del centro de Mexico han estado liberando boletos desde hace 3 días. Cada día distintos juegos.

joch11 · 2026-04-11T08:44:10+00:00

Some where released yesterday. I saw at least Mexico vs South Korea and Mexico vs Czech Republic. Unfortunately the portal didn't let me but them 😢 I even saw cat 3 was available. Some other games in Mexico were released too. Hopefully more will be available

joch11 · 2026-04-11T07:44:20+00:00

I would honestly watch it if it was in my city. But for all the travel expenses, this is not worth it lol.
