Before you even step foot into the 2 million square foot, state-of-the-art Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia, the excitement for what lies ahead is palpable. You can hear chanting and cheering from the stadium's surrounding tailgate lots and from cars honking their horns in support. They're rooting two of Atlanta's most well-known and respected sports teams to victory—Atlanta United of Major League Soccer, and the NFL's Atlanta Falcons. Fans are not just ready for the game, they're ready for an experience like none other.
"The fan experience is great. The atmosphere is incredible and the food prices invite families. Best stadium experience I've had yet."

This is all part of Arthur Blank's vision to provide the most fan-friendly experience in sports—and now with our help, together, we'll take it to the next level.
With a capacity that can exceed 70,000 fans each game day, enabling a world-class fan experience every game requires a sophisticated, cloud-based, fully integrated technology platform that Mercedes-Benz Stadium can count on.
That's where Global Payments comes in, bringing its expertise in restaurants, food service management, and sports venues to help solve the complex challenges of a multi-channel commerce ecosystem all housed within a few million square feet.
