MEMBERSHIP ON SALE NOW
The technology behind the smart card will enable the ticket office to track attendance of games, ensuring the club can properly reward its most loyal fans in the future.
Group managing director Doug Harman told bcfc.co.uk: "Season ticket holders will continue to form the bedrock of our support. But we are aware that there are many supporters who attend regularly both home and away who cannot commit to a season ticket for a number of reasons.
"We have consulted widely with our supporters and believe this scheme will look after this section of our fanbase, whilst at the same time make people feel much more part of the club.
"In addition to the many benefits on offer, the new smart card technology also gives us the flexibility to look after our most loyal fans for in-demand games and bring in new features in the near future."
