Since 20 June, when public ticket sales for the Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games started, 50,000 tickets have been sold. For the convenience of consumers, the Beijing 2008 Ticketing Centre has authorized an additional channel for ticket sales through Bank of China outlets. At present, tickets for several events are available either online or through designated Bank of China outlets.

This stage of ticket sales will initially involve 30 Bank of China sites in Beijing and two in Qingdao, with plans for additional sites to be added later. Between 15 August and 17 September, interested public, with valid identification, may visit Bank of China outlets during normal business hours to purchase tickets. Only cash or Visa cards will be accepted for payment.
