How do I get tickets transferred from SeatGeek?

Modified on Wed, 18 Sep at 2:09 PM

Once the seller initiates the ticket transfer via SeatGeek, you should be on the lookout for an email notification in your inbox. This email, sent from SeatGeek, will contain details of the transferred tickets. Within the email, there's a specific "Accept Ticket" button. Upon clicking this button, you'll either be prompted to log into your existing SeatGeek account to finalize the transfer or, if you're new to SeatGeek, to create an account, which will then allow you to accept the tickets.


Unable to Locate Transfer Email from SeatGeek? Here's What to Do:


If you're having trouble finding the transfer email from SeatGeek, please follow these steps:


  1. Email Search: Start by searching your email for "[email protected]."  You also should search for "wants to send you a ticket."  It's essential to be thorough, ensuring you also check your junk and spam folders.
  2. Direct Account Access: If, despite your efforts, you can't locate an email from SeatGeek, but you've been informed by us via email that your transfer originates from SeatGeek, then proceed directly to the SeatGeek website. Sign in or create an account using the email address you employed when purchasing through our site.
  3. Accept Transfer: After logging in to your SeatGeek account, navigate through your account notifications or dashboard. You should spot a pending transfer awaiting your acceptance. Go ahead and accept this transfer to finalize the ticket handover process.


For a hassle-free event experience, here are some important recommendations:


  • Mobile Device Access: It's advised to accept the ticket transfer using the mobile device you plan to present at the event. This ensures that the tickets are readily accessible when you're at the venue entrance.
  • Digital Wallet Storage: After accepting the transfer, you'll notice an option at the bottom of your SeatGeek account page to add the tickets to your Android or iOS digital wallet. Given that Wi-Fi connections can be unpredictable around event venues, preemptively adding your tickets to your digital wallet ensures you have them at your fingertips, regardless of connectivity.
