The Chattanooga Lookouts announced Friday that the 2021 season at AT&T Field will be completely cashless. The Lookouts instead will be accepting credit cards and debit cards at concession stands and inside the team store when they open their 120-game schedule May 4 at home against the Rocket City Trash Pandas.
“Going cashless is going to make for faster, safer and more secure transactions,” Lookouts president Rich Mozingo said in a release. “This is about looking after both our fans and our employees. We’re going to see quicker lines without the health risks of exchanging cash from hand-to-hand.”
Fans who do not have credit cards or debit cards will be able to use cash to purchase Lookouts gift cards that can be used throughout the 6,340-seat facility.
The Lookouts previously announced a new digital ticket initiative starting this season. Single-game tickets for the first 18 home contests are on sale now and can be reserved by calling 423-267-4849.
