The National Football League (NFL), a professional sports team based in America that holds yearly competitions known as the Superbowl, is currently working toward a cashless system that would provide more convenience, safety, and security for those in attendance of any live events. This new money management strategy would allow for digital payment rather than the hassle of paying by cash alone. In this present age of technology and digital platforms, the company of Visa (V  ) is considering whether it will hold a partnership with the NFL in order that customers may make payments safely, wisely, and well.

These payments from Visa include parking, concessions, retail, mobile ordering, etc. It is the first time that the NFL has gone completely paperless. The new commodity will allow for the football games to be safer, more enjoyable, more convenient, and more effective when working in accordance with the company of Visa, as well as its consumers. Visa is thought to be the central focus not only at the NFL, but also at other stadiums that require some type of payment to be made.

The key reasons that the Visa is thought to be beneficial in one way or another are that the payments made through the company are secure, increase the total amount of revenue, cause the payments to be made more quickly and efficiently, and to create a stronger bond between customers and the company of Visa. Another reason is that fans will find it important to pay without physical cash is that data estimates that more money tends to be spent when utilizing this method. Additionally, as a benefit to the NFL, they will be able to more readily see and monitor consumer behavior in terms of how much or little is spent in specific areas.

Visa will gain additional profit from each transaction that is performed.

The Visa option has enabled many NFL stadiums to resort to this particular method, including San Francisco 49ers, Baltimore Ravens, New York Jets, and Giants. It is predicted that this particular method of payment will prove to be increasingly beneficial, especially now, as it will allow for improved amount of availability in terms of convenience, and enable consumers to process and manage their money in a safer, more trustworthy way.

Overall, this paperless method of payment from Visa to the NFL proves to be more stable and efficient, thus building stronger relationships with consumers, and helping them to have an overall more enjoyable experience at the NFL Superbowl.

It is predicted that during and post pandemic, these paperless events will continue to go into effect. Even prior to the pandemic, however, NFL's chief revenue officer, Renie Anderson, had informed the NFL that he had had plans all along of going paperless with these events. The Superbowl is expected to be a great success, and if all goes well, will hopefully continue to hold these events in conjunction with Visa in the future.
