What are Away Priority Points (APPs) in football?
The points that decide who gets first go at away tickets.
TL;DR
Away Priority Points (APPs) are loyalty points some clubs use specifically for away games. Fans typically build them up by buying away tickets, and away sales then open in phases by points total, highest first.
What does “Away Priority Points (APP)” mean?
APPs are a version of ticket access or loyalty points focused on away fixtures, where the allocation is small. A typical away sale opens in stages: fans with 30+ APPs first, then 25+, 20+, 15+, 10+ and 5+, each in its own access window, before other groups such as season ticket holders. Rules on how points are earned, how long they last and who can hold them vary by club, so fans should check their club's ticketing policy.
How does it relate to football membership?
At many clubs, APPs only count for fans who hold a membership or season ticket, and a lapse can wipe them out. For loyal away fans that makes continuous membership essential, and it makes reliable renewals one of the most important things a club can get right.
How Limio helps
APPs themselves are tracked in the ticketing system. Limio runs the membership behind them: joins, renewals and auto-renewal that keep members' points safe, with membership status passed to ticketing so every sale phase sees the right fans.
