Verifying and accessing a Ticketing Account

Why verify my email?

Ballpark allows access and management of tickets purchased or received through any email address once you have confirmed ownership of the email account.

How do I verify my email?

1. Fans will login with an MLB account the first time they open the MLB Ballpark app.
2. Fans who view the "Home" or "Tickets" tabs without a verified account will be prompted to "Go to your MLB Account".
3. Fans can then "Send" or "Resend" the verification email to their MLB account OR enter the email address of a ticketing account which (s)he wants to verify in order to access tickets.
4. An email will be sent to that address asking the user to verify that address by tapping on a one-time link.
5. The account will then be verified and upon returning to the Ballpark app, the fan will have access to their tickets.

How can I remove a verified account?

During the verification process, if you've incorrectly added the wrong email address OR would like to remove a secondary account that you've linked to you can do so within the app by:

1. From the Ballpark app Settings, navigate to the "MLB Account" page by tapping on the settings icon in the top right corner of the "Home" tab.
2. From the "MLB Account" page, fans can tap on the "Remove" link. This will unlock all verified emails with a (-) button next to each.
3. Tap on the (-) icon next to the email address you wish to remove.
4. This will bring up a "Remove" option to the right of the email address. Tap "Remove" to verify the change.
5. You should no longer see the email address.

Important Note: While you can remove secondary email addresses, users cannot remove their primary email address (the one used to login to the Ballpark app).

Scanning a ticket while at the Ballpark

Quickly access your tickets at the ballpark via the "Home" tab, which is the default tab in the app, or through the "Wallet" section of the "Tickets" tab. Tapping on a ticket will display a "Scan View" for display at the ballpark. This view will display your event information, seating information, and account information. If you have multiple tickets or parking passes, you can swipe through them in "Scan View" or access them in list view from "Wallet".

Forwarding a Ticket

To forward a ticket, go to the "Wallet" section of the "Tickets" tab and tap on the game for which you have ticket(s) to open the ticket list. Please be advised that not all tickets are eligible for forwarding; if not eligible, the option to forward the ticket will not be available.

Note: The ticket can be forwarded via email [via Email] or via link [Share Link]. When Forwarding via Share Link, please be advised that whomever has access to the URL will be able to receive the ticket. Take care sharing this on social networks or other public forums.
