The Madison Square Garden Company has named CLEAR an Official Partner of Madison Square Garden to offer fans biometric access into Rangers and Knicks games, as well as concerts and special events there.”We are pleased to welcome CLEAR into the Madison Square Garden family,” said Ron Skotarczak, executive vice president, marketing partnerships, The Madison Square Garden Company. “Like MSG, CLEAR is committed to enhancing the customer experience – and we look forward to providing CLEAR's growing membership with unforgettable Garden memories.”CLEAR members can expedite their entry into MSG through a dedicated lane where, after the touch of a finger, they enter MSG for a physical screening. CLEAR Ambassadors are available to assist fans with a fast, one-time enrollment process that combines a person's identification and biometrics into a single CLEAR ID. “Launching at MSG represents a major milestone for CLEAR, and we look forward to making our members' experience there more efficient, easier and more predictable so they don't miss out on what they came to see,” said CLEAR CEO Caryn Seidman Becker. “By adding The Garden to our growing New York City ecosystem, CLEAR members can now enjoy frictionless experiences at three iconic sports and entertainment venues and three key local-area airports with one biometric ID.”With today's announcement, New York is now CLEAR's largest market as measured by the number of locations available to travelers and fans. In addition to MSG, CLEAR members can immediately use their biometrics for frictionless experiences at New York's Yankee Stadium, Citi Field, JFK, LGA and HPN airports, and any of the more than 40 other locations across the country. In select cities, they can also buy food and drinks and simultaneously prove they are of legal age for alcohol purchases and enter baseball stadiums without having to show a paper or mobile ticket. CLEAR members also now have the ability to opt-in, either by email or at the time of enrollment, to receive emails from MSG about events, promotions, and other offers.
