Following discussions with the European Commission, FIFA, the International Football Federation, on 2 May 2005 agreed to modify its arrangements for ticket payments for the next stages of ticket allocation for the 2006 World Cup in Germany. More payment methods were now to be accepted in the second phase of ticket sales which began on 2 May. Fans based in non-Eurozone countries in the European Economic Area (EEA) who did not have a MasterCard product or a German bank account were now able to pay for tickets by making a domestic bank transfer in their local currency. |
