Step-by-step guide Purchase and checkout

Buy without an account (guest checkout)

Some events allow you to book by entering only the buyer’s details in the My Details step. When it is available, which fields appear, where the tickets arrive and which features remain reserved for accounts.

When the organizer turns on the Allow purchases without login option, you can buy tickets without creating an account: the buyer’s details are requested only once in the My Details step and the tickets arrive at the e-mail address you gave.

At a glance

  • When: only for events where the organizer has turned it on (by default it is off).
  • Field always present: Email (placeholder Email*); the other fields are those chosen by the organizer in the Buyer details (without an account) section of their event.
  • What you lose: waiting list, codes and vouchers, resale and name change, messages with the organizer and the View reservations section.

Step by step

  1. Choose the tickets on the Choose the ticket type screen and press the button to go forward.
  2. Fill in My Details. Enter the Email (this is where you will receive the confirmation and the tickets: check that it is spelled correctly; at most 45 characters) and the fields requested by the organizer, with the privacy and marketing checkboxes if provided. The box on the side is called Payment summary.
  3. Continue. If the tickets are named, Who's attending? appears; otherwise you go to Payment.
  4. Pay and keep the e-mail. After payment you receive the e-mail Registrazione evento: nome dell’evento (event registration: name of the event) with the code of the reservation.

Special cases

  • You can’t find the confirmation e-mail: check spam and promotions; if you got the address wrong, write to support from the Contacts page stating the event, your name and the date of the purchase.
  • You already have an account: it is better to sign in, so you find the tickets in your account and can use vouchers, waiting list and resale.

Rules and limits

  • The rules on refunds, ticket limits and payment times are the same as for purchases with an account.
  • There is no automatic procedure to link a guest reservation to an account later.
