FAQs

I don't have a smartphone or tablet. How am I going to get into the game?
Please contact your White Sox Sales and Service Representative or email [email protected].

What if I don't have Internet connectivity at the gate?
It's always best to avoid potential connectivity problems by accessing and downloading your mobile tickets before you get to the ballpark and then saving them in Apple Wallet, Google Pay, Passbook or whatever your smartphone offers. You can also manage them in the Ballpark app. That way you can avoid any day-of-game technical glitches that could happen at the gate. The White Sox recommend relying upon your data plan when accessing tickets on site, but again, encourage you to access, download and save tickets to your smartphone from home.

Can I still get a printed ticket if I buy it at the ballpark box office?
No, if you buy your single game tickets at the ballpark ticket windows, the box office will forward your tickets via text.

What about season tickets?
All tickets will be digital throughout the season. This will provide contactless entry into the ballpark.

Will fans still be able to forward their tickets to guests with PDF/print-at-home?
Ticket purchasers will no longer be able to forward tickets as PDFs.

How do I share mobile tickets with the other people who are meeting me at the game?
Fans can visit the MLB Ballpark app page to link their mobile tickets to the MLB Ballpark app in a few simple steps. From the app it's easy to forward tickets via text, email or social media. Fans can also use their Ticketmaster account, or for Season Ticket Holders, through White Sox Account Manager.

How do I get the MLB Ballpark app or a Ticketmaster account?
The MLB Ballpark app is available for free download wherever you get apps on your smartphone. Once you have downloaded the app and input a few simple preferences, you are ready to pair the app with your Ticketmaster account, which you were required to create in order to purchase your tickets online. Once your accounts are paired, you can access and manage your tickets through the MLB Ballpark app.

I forwarded mobile tickets to a friend who can't make it to the game. Can I cancel the transaction and send them to someone else?
You can cancel the forward as long as the recipient has not accepted the tickets or as long as the game has not started. If the recipient has already accepted the tickets, he/she must forward them to you. Once you have accepted the tickets, you are free to forward them along to someone else.

Can I have multiple tickets on a single phone for one game?
We encourage you to transfer a ticket(s) to each person in your party. Yes, you can have multiple tickets on your smartphone; however, all fans must then enter at the same time and be in line together. You will be able to swipe right through all of the tickets you have for that game.

What if my entire party/group is not with me when I enter the stadium?
Every fan needs to present a ticket upon entry. There are multiple ways to transfer a ticket. From the MLB Ballpark app, fans can forward tickets via text, email or social media. Fans can also use their Ticketmaster account or for season ticket holders, their White Sox Account Manager.

Can I use a screenshot of my ticket to enter the stadium?
No. Screenshots of tickets or any ticket produced by an unauthorized source will not be accepted.

Can I print my parking pass at home?
No. Each vehicle will need to present a mobile parking pass to be scanned at the lot entrance or a specific coupon from the White Sox. You can also pay credit card upon arrival at the lots so long as there is availability.

What happens if my mobile ticket does not scan properly?
We suggest setting your phone screen to the highest brightness possible before you get in line to enter. The White Sox will provide assistance should you have difficulty scanning.

With all the stories in the news about hacking and cyber security, how can I be sure that my mobile tickets really are secure from fraud?
At every game we hear from fans who bought tickets from third-parties, whether from a broker, a random person on a website or a person on the street outside the ballpark, who get turned away at the gate because their tickets are not valid. It's easy to print multiple copies of the same ticket, or pass off a printed ticket with a deactivated bar code as legitimate. Unfortunately, there is little or no recourse when you buy a fraudulent ticket from a third party. On the other hand, when you purchase mobile tickets from the White Sox or Ticketmaster, you are guaranteed to be receiving a valid ticket.
