Clear Secure to launch eGate pilot program at select U.S. airports

CLEAR announced the launch of biometric eGates to help modernize America’s airports ahead of the FIFA World Cup 2026 games. CLEAR is investing to improve security and the traveler experience at no cost to taxpayers. Automated eGates are designed to provide a scalable, secure solution to expedite the passenger experience and enhance security. Starting in August 2025, these eGates will debut at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Ronald Reagan National Airport, and Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, with CLEAR planning to expand the eGate implementation across its nationwide network of airports. “We are proud to help make America’s airports great ahead of the World Cup. The U.S. should be leading on security, hospitality, and the travel experience,” said CLEAR CEO Caryn Seidman Becker. “This partnership with TSA is a powerful example of how public and private sectors can work together to enhance security and improve the aviation ecosystem. CLEAR is investing in this technology at no cost to taxpayers to modernize our checkpoints and ensure America’s airports are ready to meet global expectations. CLEAR’s secure identity platform will help unlock a better, safer, and more frictionless experience for all travelers.”
