To mobile transfer tickets, open the ticketing app where you bought them, sign in, find your tickets in the My Tickets or My Events section, select the event, tap Transfer, enter the recipient's email or phone number, and confirm. This works the same way across Ticketmaster, Co-op Live, Gopher Sports, and MSG apps, letting you send tickets to anyone in just a few taps.
How to mobile transfer tickets in any ticketing app
The universal pattern across Ticketmaster, Co-op Live, Gopher Sports, and MSG apps is: sign in, find My Tickets, select the event, tap Transfer, enter the recipient, and confirm. On both iPhone and Android, the documented transfer flow is inside the ticketing app: sign in, open My Tickets or Tickets, open the event, choose Transfer or Manage Tickets, select the tickets, enter the recipient’s email or phone number, then confirm.
Step 1: Open the right app for your tickets
Use the Ticketmaster app on Android or iPhone, or go to my.ticketmaster.com/orders on a smartphone. If you bought tickets for a Co-op Live event, use the Co-op Live app. For University of Minnesota events, use the Gopher Sports app. For Madison Square Garden or other Manhattan venues, use www.msg.com/managetickets or the Ticketmaster mobile app.
Step 2: Sign in to your ticketing account
Sign in with the email you used at purchase. In the Ticketmaster app, sign into your account. For MSG, select the My Account icon, then Sign In with the purchase email. In the Co-op Live app, sign into your account before accessing tickets. For Gopher Sports, follow the instructions under Logging Into Your Gophersports.com Account via the Gopher Sports App. If you don’t see your order, you may be signed into the wrong account, the transfer starts from the account where the order lives, so if the order is not in My Tickets, it is not in the correct account.
Step 3: Find your event and select tickets to transfer
- Open My Tickets or My Events in the app.
- Select the event you want to transfer from.
- Choose one or multiple tickets to send. In the Gopher Sports app, you can select multiple seats across different games, sports, and parking in one transaction.
- Tap Transfer or Manage Tickets, depending on the app.
For MSG, open Tickets > My Events > View Event Details, then tap More > Transfer. For Ticketmaster, find your order in My Tickets and select the event, then tap Manage Tickets or Transfer.
Step 4: Enter the recipient and confirm the transfer
- Enter the recipient’s email address or phone number. Ticketmaster and MSG require the recipient’s first name, last name, and email address or phone number associated with their Ticketmaster account.
- Add an optional note if the app allows (Co-op Live supports this).
- Review the details, then confirm the transfer.
- The recipient receives an email or notification to accept the tickets into their account.
For Gopher Sports, enter the recipient’s phone number or email, tap Review Transfer, then tap Transfer Ticket. For Co-op Live, tap Transfer To after selecting tickets.
Troubleshooting mobile ticket transfers
If the Transfer button is greyed out, the tickets are not eligible for transfer, not all tickets can be transferred. Chicago Bears says not all tickets are eligible for transfer; if not, the transfer option is greyed out. If the order is not in My Tickets, you are likely signed into the wrong account. Double-check the recipient’s details before confirming, as transfers are typically non-reversible. If problems persist, contact the platform’s customer support.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I transfer tickets from a third-party seller?
In most cases, yes, as long as the ticketing platform or app used by the seller supports transfers. Check with the seller or the platform’s support for specific instructions.
What if the recipient can't attend?
The recipient may be able to transfer the tickets to someone else or return them to you, depending on the event and platform’s policies. Communicate with the recipient and the ticketing platform to determine the best option.
Are transfers reversible?
No, once you confirm a transfer, the tickets are removed from your account and become the recipient’s responsibility. Transfer requests are typically non-reversible, so verify the recipient’s information carefully.
Do I need the recipient to have an account with the ticketing platform?
For Ticketmaster and MSG, the recipient needs a Ticketmaster account associated with the email or phone number you enter. For other apps like Co-op Live and Gopher Sports, the recipient can accept the transfer via email or phone without a pre-existing account.
Can I use T-Mobile account management to transfer tickets?
No, T-Mobile account management is not a ticket transfer method. Use the specific ticketing app or website where you purchased the tickets to complete the transfer.
