That party tour you booked a few months ago is crawling on the calendar, but you’ll be stuck at home because sometimes life can get in the way. If you booked your ticket through Ticketmaster, you can easily transfer the pass to someone else instead of making it an empty seat.
How to transfer tickets in the Ticketmaster app
If you have a Ticketmaster app, you can find the ticket you want to transfer in the My Tickets section. Once there, click the Transfer button and you will be prompted to enter a one-time code to verify your identity. After confirmation, you can select the relevant ticket and press the Transfer to button. You must enter the contact information to which you send your ticket, which can be a mobile phone number or email address. Once your recipient has requested the transferred ticket via text or email, you will receive a confirmation email that has been completed and your own ticket is no longer valid.
How to transfer tickets on Ticketmaster website or team/site brand website
The process is very similar if you want to do it through a web browser. With the Ticketmaster website, you must log in to your account before you can follow the same steps as specified in the application. If you have a specific team or venue that works with Ticketmaster, search for it on the Account Manager page and log in. Once logged in, you can transfer tickets in the same way as the app or the Ticketmaster website.
Some restrictions apply
Before making a transfer, it is important to note that no matter who you are sending your ticket to need a ticket seller account. Moreover, some venues or artists will choose not to transfer tickets, so it may not always be an option. Some users also report that the transfer option for Ticketmaster is only available a few days before the event starts, so you may have to plan accordingly.
