Fan Transfers FAQs
-
What are Tixr Fan Transfers?
Fan Transfer is a safe and easy way to transfer (send) tickets digitally to another person. If your tickets are eligible for transfer, you can send them to friends or family members from your Tixr account.
If you are a Fan Transfer recipient, meaning someone you know and trust is transferring their tickets to you, you will be able to accept them in your Tixr account. Once the transfer offer is accepted by the recipient, the original purchaser is no longer the owner of the ticket(s). - How do I transfer my tickets?
If you have an account with Tixr, simply log in and go to MY EVENTS. From there, select the ticket(s) you want to transfer and enter the email address you want to receive the transfer offer.
- Does my friend need to have a Tixr account to accept or decline the transfer?
Yes. When your friend receives the Fan Transfer email, if an account does not exist, the recipient will be prompted to create an account in order to check out an accepted transfer offer. Please note that in order for your friend to claim the transfer offer, the recipient's email address must match the email address you submitted during the transfer process.
- Why can’t I transfer my ticket for an event?
The administrator of your event has disabled Fan Transfers for your group, event, and/or ticket. All underlying tickets of an event will not be transferrable when an event administrator disables the feature for an event. Also, note that you can only transfer eligible event tickets that are completed orders - meaning payment plan tickets cannot be transferred until the order is fully paid.

Once returned, the recipient will no longer have access to the returned ticket when logging into Tixr. - How can I return a ticket from my Tixr account?
