How to buy World Cup 2026 tickets with Monero
Pay privately in Monero: confidential by default, settled on the Monero network.
Overview
Monero (XMR) is the leading privacy cryptocurrency. Amounts, senders and recipients are obscured by default, so a Monero ticket payment leaves no public trail linking your purchase back to your wallet.
You send XMR from your own wallet to a one-time subaddress created for your order. Confirmation takes a few blocks; because the chain is private, keep your transaction key so you can prove payment to support if you ever need to.
Recommended wallets
Any wallet or exchange that can send XMR on the right network will work. These are popular, well-supported options.

How to pay with Monero, step by step
- 1
Add your seats
Choose your match and seats on SeatSparks, then open checkout — your total is shown all-in in US dollars.
- 2
Select Monero
Pick XMR at checkout. We convert your dollar total into an exact XMR amount and lock that quote for a short window so the price can't drift while you pay.
- 3
Scan or copy the address
Scan the QR code with your wallet, or copy the one-time Monero deposit address generated for your order.
- 4
Send the exact amount
Send precisely the XMR amount shown. The Monero network fee is added by your wallet and goes to the network, not to SeatSparks.
- 5
Wait for confirmation
Monero settles in roughly 2 to 20 minutes — there's no need to keep the checkout page open.
- 6
Get your e-ticket
The moment the payment confirms, your mobile e-ticket with a scannable entry QR is issued to your account and emailed to you.

Security tips
- Send XMR on the Monero network to the one-time subaddress shown — Monero is its own chain, not a token elsewhere.
- After pasting, double-check the first and last four characters of the deposit address.
- Send the exact quoted XMR amount; the network fee is added by your wallet separately.
- Pay before the quote window expires — after that a fresh amount is calculated.
Monero ticket FAQs
Is a Monero ticket payment really private?
Yes. Monero hides the amount and both parties by default using ring signatures and stealth addresses, so the payment isn't publicly linkable to your wallet the way a Bitcoin or Ethereum transaction is.
How long does Monero take to confirm?
Usually a few blocks — roughly 2 to 20 minutes. Your e-ticket is issued automatically once the network confirms the payment.
How do I prove I paid if there's an issue?
Keep the transaction key (tx key) from your wallet. Because Monero is private, that key is how you demonstrate a specific payment to support if it's ever needed.
