Exclusive Co-Marketing Partnership with Historic San Francisco Team to
Drive Enrollments in Clear While Providing Benefits for Members
NEW YORK, Aug. 18 /EMWNews/ -- Clear(R), the leader in providing
fast pass access through airport security in major airports nationwide,
announced today it has forged an exclusive partnership with the San
Francisco 49ers that enables Clear to deliver its industry-leading benefits
to the team's legions of fans. With the partnership, all Clear card members
will enjoy expedited entry to 49ers games at Candlestick Park, as well as
fast access through Clear's special security lanes at 18 airports
nationwide, including the Bay Area's three airports -- San Francisco
International, Oakland International and San Jose Airport.
Participating San Francisco 49ers fans will receive a Clear membership
card that grants them exclusive access to Clear's new "fast pass" entry
lane located at Gate A in Candlestick Park. Fans with the Clear card will
also benefit from a 15% merchandise discount at the 49ers online team
store. Fans can purchase a one-year 49ers-Clear membership card for $128
and begin enjoying its benefits at the first home game on September 7,
2008.
"Our exclusive partnership with the historic San Francisco 49ers
represents a significant expansion of our fast pass program from the
airport environment into the world of sports and entertainment venues,"
said Clear's CEO Steven Brill. "Only Clear cardholders will have guaranteed
access to Clear's three Bay-area Airports, and we're excited to bring the
Clear benefits to loyal 49ers fans, beginning with the 2008 season."
"We're extremely pleased about this new partnership with Clear. It will
enable members not only to expedite their entry into the stadium, but also
all three Bay Area airports," said Jim Mercurio, Director Stadium
Operations for the San Francisco 49ers. "Members are still required to go
through the established NFL Security requirements, but we expect that they
will appreciate the convenience of this new program."
Clear will open an enrollment center at Candlestick Park where fans can
apply for the membership card that provides access to the stadium and
Clear's 18 participating airports, nationwide, including those in the Bay
Area. Beginning today, fans can also sign up for the card at
http://www.flyclear.com.
Clear members are pre-screened and after application completion, which
involves providing iris and fingerprint images, receive a card that allows
exclusive access to Clear's security lanes nationwide. Clear lanes, which
feature concierge staff whose assistance speeds throughput while making the
experience far more pleasant, are already operating in airports in
Cincinnati, Denver, Indianapolis, New York's JFK and LaGuardia, Oakland,
Orlando, San Francisco, San Jose and Washington DC's Reagan National and
Dulles airports, among others.
