Gibraltar, Gibraltar, January 16th, 2026, Chainwire – Today, MINGO has announced the launch of MINGO Tickets, its digital ticketing platform, alongside its expansion across 54 countries. 

The platform is designed to make event access verifiable and reliable, improve the fan experience, and give organisers greater confidence and control over ticketing.

Despite advances in technology, live event ticketing remains a challenge in many parts of the world. Issues like ticket fraud, repeated use of the same pass, high service fees, and disappointing fan experiences are still common. 

With global demand for live events on the rise, organisers are now under more pressure than ever to implement systems that are secure, scalable, and workable across multiple regions. 

MINGO Tickets is built as a progressive web app on Hedera’s enterprise-grade infrastructure, allowing it to work seamlessly across devices without the need for downloads. 

It directly addresses long-standing ticketing issues like fraud and duplicate entries, while remaining fast, cost-predictable, and reliable enough to handle large-scale events.

As part of this expansion, MINGO is rolling out MINGO Tickets across Africa through a partnership with African Boxing and the Yucateco Boxing League, supporting live events across 54 nations and one of the world’s fastest-growing sports markets. 

Africa represents a mobile-first environment where accessibility and reliability are critical. MINGO Tickets is designed to operate across diverse markets while helping reduce ticket fraud by issuing verifiable digital tickets that prove authenticity rather than relying on assumptions. 

MINGO was one of the earliest builders on Hedera, selecting the network to support real-world utility at scale. Hedera’s speed, security, sustainability, and predictable fees enable MINGO Tickets to operate effectively from grassroots events to major international promotions. 

A Practical Approach to Event Access

  • Verifiable digital tickets that help prevent fraud and duplication
  • Lower, predictable ticketing fees for organisers
  • Simple mobile-first access through a progressive web app
  • Tools that allow organisers to engage fans beyond the event

Joe Arthur, CEO of Mingo, said:

As live events scale globally, the systems behind them need to scale too. MINGO Tickets is about improving access, reducing fraud, and giving organisers a platform they can rely on, while keeping the experience simple for fans. Expanding across 54 countries is a major step in proving that this model works.” 

Hon. Omonlei Yakubu Imadu, CEO of Yucateco Boxing Promotions and Vice President of African Boxing, also hailed the partnership as a turning point for African sports: 

Our vision has always been to elevate African boxing to the global stage, but we lacked the digital highway to connect our 54 nations. MINGO is not just a ticketing app; it is the operating system for the future of our sport. By integrating ticketing, fighter payments, and fan engagement into one sovereign platform, we are finally unlocking the true economic power of the African continent.

Kevin Noone, Secretary General of The WBC Asian Boxing Council and Secretary General of WBC MuayThai, added: 

This partnership is a step in the right direction. Making events more accessible to fans while protecting the integrity of the sport is hugely important. MINGO Tickets achieves both by delivering a simple, secure, and fair ticketing experience—exactly what the boxing and MuayThai industries need as they continue to grow around the world.”
