穂坂デジタル副大臣が「ライブイベントにおけるチケット不正転売防止・業務効率化実証実験」の視察を行いました｜デジタル庁

This page reports on a demonstration project by Japan's Digital Agency using My Number Cards to prevent ticket fraud and improve operational efficiency at live events. Vice Minister Hosaka inspected two Hello! Project events in March 2025. The project verified that using My Number Cards for identity verification prevents fraudulent ticket acquisition via dummy accounts and impersonation at entry. The system using QR codes and facial recognition achieved smoother entry processes while reducing labor demands. Vice Minister Hosaka praised the effectiveness in preventing fraud and supporting equitable fan access, expressing hope for expanded adoption across various sectors to address labor shortages.
