How Do Tottenham Hotspur Ticketing Points Work?
For the most committed Spurs fans, Tottenham Hotspur Ticketing Points (previously known as Loyalty Points) are a lifeblood.
For any match with a limited allocation, including Tottenham away tickets, Ticketing Points will determine who can buy tickets for the match.
So you may be wondering, how do Tottenham Hotspur ticketing points work exactly? Well, we’ll explain everything in this detailed guide.
We’ll explore how you earn Ticketing Points, how they’re calculated, which matches require Ticketing Points, and just how many you’ll need.
Let’s begin by addressing a common question.
No Ticketing Points Needed!
What Are Tottenham Hotspur Ticketing Points?
Previously known as ‘Loyalty Points’, Tottenham Ticketing Points are credits that determine fans’ access to high-demand and low-supply tickets.
Ticketing Points are mainly used to determine access to away tickets, but will also come into play for big matches at neutral grounds. These include European and domestic cup finals and domestic cup semi-finals.
So how do you pick up Ticketing Points? We’ll dive into that below.
How Do You Earn Tottenham Hotspur Ticketing Points?
Season Ticket Holders
- Renewing a Tottenham season ticket adds 30 points each season.
- If you’re in the Automatic Cup Scheme, you also get +10 points more.
- Attending an away match or a competitive match at a neutral venue awards you 1 point.
You don’t earn points for the 19 Premier League home games that are already included in your season ticket.
But you do earn points for any extra fixtures you buy official Tottenham tickets for (cups, away) once the ticket is assigned to you and scanned at the turnstile.
Note that any extra Guest tickets you buy, as well as forwarded tickets, and Ticket Exchange sales don’t add to your Ticketing Points total.
One Hotspur Members:
Buying or renewing membership earns Ticketing Points:
- One Hotspur+ gives you 15 points per season
- One Hotspur gives you 10 points per season.
You also earn match points when your ticket is assigned to you and scanned:
- Category A matches add 1
- Category B fixtures add 3,
- Category C games add 5.
Points are awarded once per Customer Reference Number (CRN) per match, even if you purchase multiple seats.
Crediting & Rules:
- Match attendance points typically post within about two weeks
- Membership/Season Ticket points usually appear within about a week (Season Ticket renewal points land after the renewal window closes).
- Points are non-transferable and help prioritise high-demand fixtures such as away games and some cup ties.
How Are Tottenham Hotspur Ticketing Points Calculated
Spurs uses a rolling five-year total (current season AND the previous four).
So, as of the 2025/26 season, the rolling five-year total includes:
- 2021/22
- 2022/23
- 2023/24
- 2024/25
- 2025/26
(When 2026/27 starts, 2021/22 will drop off and the new season will be added.)
Note that it’s vital that your Tottenham Hotspur membership doesn’t lapse during this period. If that happens you’ll lose all accumulated Ticketing Points from previous seasons.
So, perhaps you can tell from these figures that One Hotspur+ and One Hotspur members are always far behind long-term season ticket holders in their Ticketing Points totals.
In fact, because it’s largely the same group of fans regularly attending away matches, the bulk of Ticketing Points is shared by only a minority of season ticket holders. We’ll display this in the next section.
Tottenham Ticketing Points: Who Has More?
To give you a sense of how those accumulated Ticketing Points totals look for Tottenham Hotspur season ticket holders, below is a table based on data published by the club at the start of the 2025/26 season:
Ticketing Points | General Admission Season Ticket Holders (including 1882) | Wheelchair Season Ticket Holders | Ambulant Season Ticket Holders |
---|---|---|---|
000 to 049 | 238 | 2 | 6 |
050 to 099 | 1,561 | 22 | 28 |
100 to 149 | 3,218 | 40 | 43 |
150 to 199 | 22,213 | 118 | 148 |
200 to 249 | 6,831 | 33 | 52 |
250 to 299 | 3,354 | 22 | 33 |
300 to 349 | 789 | 5 | 8 |
350 to 399 | 852 | 2 | 4 |
400 to 449 | 799 | 6 | 3 |
450 to 499 | 392 | 0 | 1 |
500 to 549 | 53 | 1 | 0 |
550 to 599 | 14 | 0 | 0 |
600+ | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Totals | 40,314 | 251 | 326 |
As the table above shows: If an allocation for a match is only a few thousand, there’s a large contingent of Spurs season ticket holders with the Ticketing Points to snap it up.
How Many Ticketing Points Do You Need to Buy Tottenham Hotspur Away Tickets?
The number of Tottenham Hotspur Ticketing Points needed to buy away Premier League tickets can range from around 300 to almost 500.
The requirement will fluctuate due to a number of factors:
- The time in the season
- The day of the week in which the match is played (mid-week matches are less popular)
- The importance of a match
- The level of prestige of the opposition
- The location of the match (away matches in London and the South of England tend to be more popular)
- The size of the away ticket allocation
That last point is key in determining the number of Ticketing Points needed to buy Tottenham away tickets.
The highest required totals for almost every season in the last few years has been for the matches away to Brentford and Bournemouth.
Due to their small stadiums, these clubs have Premier League away allocations of around 1,300 and 1,700 respectively.
Naturally that is far below a typical allocation, which is about 3,000 at 15 out of 20 clubs.
As we mentioned, Ticketing Points also play a vital role in determining who can attend Spurs’ biggest occasions at neutral stadiums. Fortunately, we can point to a recent example with UEFA Europa League tickets for the final in May 2025.
Ticketing Points Needed for the UEFA Europa League Final
For an allocation of 14,000 at the Estadio de San Mamés, which is far larger than a typical away allocation, Spurs season ticket holders could buy tickets for the 2025 Europa League final in two windows according to the following criteria:
- 10:00 am: 271 Ticketing Points
- 2:00 pm: 208 Ticketing Points
Now, it would be possible to achieve this total by renewing your season ticket, opting into the Automatic Cup Scheme and attending a couple of away matches each season.
