To protect all buyers and sellers, we do not offer the option of simply processing a ‘name change’. This is a measure we have introduced to reduce scalping and ensure ticket purchasers are not scammed when buying second-hand tickets.

If you have arranged to sell or give your ticket privately to a friend, you can simply list the ticket for sale and before the final confirmation (in step 4), select the 'private listing' option. You can then send the private ticket link to the new ticket holder.

Changing or transferring names later will cost an admin fee.
