Use the Swap tool to move a booking to a different date, event, or to change the ticket type entirely
During a swap, the original ticket(s) will be cancelled and a new order with new tickets will be created.
Swapping does not transfer any financial value to the new ticket/order, and does not take into account any price difference.
Swapping to a cheaper ticket will not issue any refund
You can issue a partial refund on the original order
Swapping to a more expensive ticket will not debit the buyer the difference
You will need to collect the difference from the buyer directly or ask the ticket buyer to place a new order and then issue a full refund on their original order once they have repurchased.
