FIFA criticized for World Cup ticket hikes
FIFA, the International Football Federation, faced widespread criticism after ticket prices for the England vs. Mexico match at the World Cup skyrocketed to 57 times their original value. The tickets were offered on its resale platform at prices reaching up to $34,500, ignoring regulations that prohibit resale above face value in certain categories. FIFA profits by applying two commissions of 15% on both the seller and the buyer, resulting in a profit of around $9,000 from each of the most expensive tickets. The English Football Association struggled to monitor ticket sales effectively, especially since FIFA's regulations allow resale at higher prices than the original, except in some categories.
