Northern Illinois University (NIU)'s athletics program will join the hundreds of collegiate and professional teams, venues, and organizations across the United States to use mobile tickets for single game and mini-plan purchases for all of the school's ticketed sports in 2019. The mobile ticketing method, which has been in use for NIU Convocation Center and Huskie Stadium non-athletic events since last December, replaces the Print-at-Home (PDF)/TicketFast option, which is being eliminated by Ticketmaster, NIU’s ticketing partner, due to increased fraudulent activity and a prevalence of counterfeit tickets. All purchased tickets can be accessed through each customer’s My Huskies Account. Everyone who has purchased NIU Athletics tickets has a My Huskies Account, where tickets can be purchased, viewed and managed at any time.
