Transferring a ticket ​

If you can't attend, or you bought a ticket for someone else, you may be able to transfer it so the new holder gets their own e-ticket in their name. The other person fills in their details and receives a fresh check-in code; your original ticket is handed over to them.

When transfers are allowed ​

Transfers are a per-event feature that the organizer turns on. If it's enabled, you'll see a Gift / transfer option in your event's personal center. If you don't see it, transfers aren't available for that event — contact the organizer through the event page to ask about your options.

Sending a transfer ​

  1. Open the personal center for the event and sign in with your registered email and the one-time code (see Opening the personal center).
  2. Find the ticket you want to give away and choose Gift / transfer.
  3. BagEvent creates a one-time transfer link and shows it on the page (it's also copied to your clipboard where your browser allows).
  4. Send the link to the one person who should get the ticket — by message, email, or however you like.

WARNING

Anyone who has the link can claim the ticket, and it works only once and expires after a while (the page tells you when). Send it to a single person, and generate a new link if it expires before they accept.

Once someone accepts the transfer, that ticket becomes theirs and your copy is no longer valid for entry.

Accepting a transfer (for the recipient) ​

If someone sends you a transfer link:

  1. Open the link. You'll see the event name and when the invitation expires.
  2. Enter your full name and email address (and phone, if asked).
  3. If the sender set a transfer password, enter it — ask the sender if you don't have it.
  4. Choose Accept ticket.

That's it — you now hold the ticket. You'll get a confirmation (if the organizer has notifications on), and you can open your own account for the event to see and download your e-ticket with its check-in QR code.

TIP

The e-ticket is issued in the details you entered when accepting, so use your own name and an email you check — that's where your ticket and any event updates will go.
