LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Allegiant Stadium will be the first venue in American pro sports to open as a cashless venue. Cash will not be accepted as a form of payment at any stadium-controlled parking location or within Allegiant Stadium.

The stadium says the decisions was part of their ongoing dedication to provide fans and patrons with a world-class sports and live entertainment experience, and in response to feedback from loyal customers.

The stadium also says the decision is in line with recent guidance from the Center for Disease Control, and Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak's leadership in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, through both his Medical Advisory Team and emergency directive urging businesses to adopt contactless payment systems. Cashless transactions promote the overall health, security, and public safety of our fans and PSL Holders.

Fans can pay for items using valid debit or credit cards, or mobile wallets including Apple Pay, Google Pay or Samsung Pay. For fans who only bring cash to the stadium, we will have several cash-to-card kiosks positioned throughout the stadium where fans can exchange cash for a pre-paid card that can be used both inside and outside the stadium.
