What does Ticket Transfer mean and how does it work?

Many people order tickets for their friends in one order. You can then give these tickets individually to your friends. With just a few clicks, the ticket then changes owner.

This works as follows:

To pass a ticket on to a friend, you need your friend's email address and enter it after clicking on Ticket Transfer. You start the ticket transfer with a click on Ticket Transfer Start. Your friend will receive an email from the Wacken Ticket Center with a reference to the ticket transfer and a link to the Wacken Ticketcenter. If your friend already has a Wacken.ID, he can log in to the Ticketcenter with it. If he does not have a Wacken.ID yet, he has to register a new one (see the Wacken.ID section in the FAQ).
The transfered W:O:A ticket is then located in the Ticketcenter under Transactions and must be accepted by your friend there. A personalization before this process is not necessary. Your friend can take over the personalication himself after accepting the ticket. The name on the ticket must match the name of the holder. See also the point Personalization.
