Verifying Accounts and Accessing Tickets

Why verify my email?

In order to access and manage tickets in the MLB Ballpark app, fans must verify their email, regardless of whether the tickets were purchased or received through a ticket forward. By verifying your email you confirm ownership of the MLB account and associated tickets.

How do I verify my email?

2. Fans who view the "Home" or "Tickets" tabs without a verified account will be prompted to "Please verify your email address or refresh your tickets".
3. Fans can request a verification email be sent to verify their MLB account OR add an email address under "Profile" and "My MLB Account Emails" to link the email associated with their tickets. All MLB Account Emails must be verified in order to access tickets associated with that email.
4. Upon requesting a verification email, an email will be sent to that address asking you to verify that address by tapping on a one-time link.

How can I remove a verified account?

During the verification process, if you've added an incorrect email address OR would like to remove a secondary account that you've previously linked, you can do so within the app.

1. Go to the "Home" tab in the bottom navigation bar, and click on the avatar icon or your initials in the upper left-hand corner to go to your "Profile."
2. Click on "My MLB Email Account Emails," where you can see any emails that are linked and their verification status.
3. Tap on "Remove", which will unlock all verified emails with a minus button next to each.
4. Tap on the minus icon next to the email address(es) you wish to remove.
5. Confirm that you want to remove the account by tapping the "Remove" button at the right of 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 MLB Ballpark app).

Click the "Forward Tickets" button at the bottom of the screen, which will enable you to select the ticket(s) you wish to transfer to someone else.

However, if you received the ticket as the result of a forward, you can revoke subsequent ticket forwards at any time up until the ticket is scanned for entry, provided that the forward recipient does not forward the ticket to someone else. The original ticket purchaser, however, retains perpetual rights to revoke the ticket back to him/herself, regardless of whether it has been subsequently forwarded, up until the ticket is scanned for entry.

To see the current status of all of your tickets, go to the "Wallet" section of the "Tickets" tab and tap on the Event card to see the status of forwarded tickets, e.g., when pending or accepted by the recipient. You can also cancel a pending Forward by clicking on "Cancel" to the right of the ticket, or you can recall an accepted ticket by clicking on "Recall" to the right of the ticket.

To track all of your sent and received forwards, go to the "Tickets" tab and tap on the ticket forward icon in the top right-hand corner of the screen.
