Can I transfer or resell my ticket?

Not yet. Ticket transfers are coming to Gaytherings, and until they arrive there's no supported way to move a ticket to someone else's name.

What's coming

Transfers will let you send a ticket to another person properly: their name, a fresh QR code, your old one retired. Resale is on the roadmap after that, so tickets can change hands safely instead of through a stranger's DMs.

Until then

The QR code is what gets scanned, and it isn't checked against a name. Practically, that means a ticket you can't use can still get someone in.

What we'd say about that: it's fine between people who know each other, and a bad idea with anyone else. There's no record on our side that a ticket changed hands, so if something goes wrong, there's nothing for us to unwind.

Each code scans once. If you pass yours on, don't also show up with it.

Please don't sell above face value

Our platform exists so people in our community can get into the room, not so tickets become an investment. Selling a ticket for more than you paid takes money out of the pockets of the people the event was for, and it isn't in the spirit of anything we're building here.

Reselling tickets for profit, buying up inventory to flip, and using bots to grab tickets all breach our terms and can get an account closed.

Buying a ticket from a stranger is risky

Anyone can send the same QR code to five people. Only the first one through the entrance gets in, and the other four find out at check-in.

A screenshot proves nothing. Neither does a payment receipt from the person who sent it. We can't verify a ticket bought secondhand, we can't refund one, and we can't reissue a code that's already been scanned. The order still belongs to whoever bought it, along with any refund.

If someone approaches you offering a sold-out ticket, treat it the way you'd treat any stranger asking for money online.

Where the order stays

Your order stays under your name and the email you used at checkout, and any refund goes to your payment method. Whoever ends up attending, you're the one who submits a refund request if it comes to that.
