The agreement will see the U’s wearing a unique sleeve patch featuring an integrated scannable QR code, active on matchday, for their live Sky Sports game against Stevenage on Friday 19th April.
IVY PASS is a leading digital platform delivering instant account creation for sports teams, brands and artists. The deal with Oxford United, its first UK-sports partnership, will deliver an unparalleled fan experience for U’s fans attending the Stevenage match with exclusive OUFC digital cards to collect.
