It is worthwhile for existing Bayer 04 members to recruit new members and thereby benefit from an exciting bonus. With a bit of luck you can also win a framed and signed championship jersey from the 2023/24 season.
And here's how it works: Complete a membership online for a family member, a friend, acquaintance or colleague. For each application you will receive a Danke Xabi Alonso scarf. Every successfully completed membership will automatically put you in a draw for the framed and signed champion's jersey.
This event runs from today, 30 January, up to and including the member matchday on Sunday, 2 February.

Also within the timescale of the 04 days from today to Sunday, Bayer 04 members can benefit from a 30% discount on the whole Castore collection and on names and numbers on the jerseys. The discount also applies to highlight articles like the champion's jersey with double badge and special box. The events counts both online at the web shop as well as in the Fanwelt.
Not included are the purple goalkeeper's jersey 2024/25 (sales start on 2 February in the Fanwelt, see below), the framed champions jersey from the 2023/24 season as well as already reduced Castore articles.

The popular Club collection – the exclusive merch line for Bayer 04 members – is being extended with three new articles in time for the members matchday. New articles are a polo shirt, a zip hoodie and a jacket. In addition, the black Club cap is available again. The articles will be available from Saturday, 1 February, online at the web shop as well as in the Fanwelt.

Bayer 04 members, who attend the member matchday against Hoffenheim at the BayArena, can also look forward to other exclusive offers. From Sunday, the purple goalkeeper's jersey goes on sale exclusively in the Fanwelt. All jerseys are only available with the name and number of the Werkself skipper Lucas Hradecky. This article – as mentioned above – is excluded from the 30% discount.
In addition, members will receive a free Danke Xabi Alonso scarf if spending €35 or more. This offer only applies on Sunday.
On the matchday there will also again be a couple of offers and promotions. That includes a wheel of fortune where exciting main prizes are to be one. In addition, TSV Bayer Leverkusen will be present with a membership stand as well as the judo section.
Bayer 04 members also have the opportunity to speak directly to staff members at different locations about the opportunity to take up membership and to discuss questions and concerns. This Sunday, the new Bayer 04 Cube and the club mobile shop are the right places to go to. Also new: Bayer 04 is immediately expanding its membership service. Questions about membership will be answered at the service counter in the Fanwelt on all home matchdays (from stadium opening to the final whistle). The personal membership service will be available from the week after the members matchday every Wednesday from 15.00 to close of business at the Fanwelt (starts 5 February).

Bayer 04 and Olympiacos had only met twice before the current UEFA Champions campaign. After the encounter on Matchday 7 of this season’s league phase, the Werkself travel to face the Greek side for the second time in just four weeks for the knockout play-off first leg.

The Werkself aim to do better on Wednesday night to “seize the chance for revenge,” as managing director sport Simon Rolfes put it. Here’s all you need to know ahead of the game in our matchday news.
