Raków Częstochowa launches 2026/2027 season ticket campaign with flexible payment options
Raków Częstochowa has announced the start of its 2026/2027 season ticket sales, beginning June 15 for existing holders, as the club aims to build on a campaign that included 53 matches and a return to the PGE Narodowy. According to the official club announcement, the sales process is divided into three stages to prioritize current supporters before opening access to the general public on June 25. The club is implementing a 0% interest installment plan via PayU and a seat-release incentive program to maximize stadium attendance at Limanowskiego 83.
How the season ticket sales process works
The club is managing demand through a phased rollout to ensure current ticket holders retain priority. According to Raków Częstochowa’s official ticketing portal, the schedule is as follows:
* Stage I (June 15): Exclusive access for 2025/2026 season ticket holders to renew their specific seats.
* Stage II (June 23–24): A secondary window for existing holders to purchase tickets, though specific seat reservations are no longer guaranteed.
* Stage III (June 25): Public sale opens for all remaining inventory.
The club confirmed that due to high demand, there will be no separate sale for the autumn round, making season-long passes the primary method for securing entry to the Raków Arena.
Financial incentives and flexible payment models
To lower the barrier to entry, Raków Częstochowa has introduced a 0% interest installment plan, a strategy increasingly common among European football clubs looking to stabilize annual revenue. As stated by the club, fans can choose between 5, 10, or more installments through PayU. This digital-only process requires no physical paperwork, allowing supporters to spread costs without additional fees.
Furthermore, the club is incentivizing attendance through a seat-release program. Fans who cannot attend a specific match can release their seat back to the club. If the seat is subsequently resold, the original ticket holder receives a 5 PLN voucher toward future purchases. This mechanism aims to ensure the Limanowskiego 83 stadium remains filled, reflecting a broader trend in professional sports to optimize stadium utilization rates.
Family and group ticketing strategies
The club is continuing its focus on family attendance by offering specialized pricing for the 2026/2027 season. Families consisting of one man and one woman can purchase heavily discounted tickets for up to three children under the age of 13. According to the club’s pricing structure, child tickets are set at 289 PLN, regardless of the family’s seating location, excluding the covered stand and Category I seats on the main stand.
To accommodate fans attending in groups, the club allows the purchase of up to eight tickets per transaction. This policy applies to both the closed sales window for existing holders and the general public sale, provided the group members hold valid status for the respective stage.
