Create a ticketing account
Before or during a ticket purchase, you will often be asked to create an account. It's not mandatory everywhere, but it's practical: an account allows you to find your tickets, track your orders and save time next time. This guide simply explains how to create a ticketing account, what information to prepare, and how to secure it.
Do you really need to create an account?
It all depends on the platform. Some allow you to purchase as a guest, with just an email address. Others require an account to complete the order. In any case, an account is not a trap: it is above all a space to find your tickets and your purchases. If you plan to buy again later, the account will save you time.
What to prepare
- A email address that you check regularly: this is where the confirmation and often the ticket will arrive.
- A strong 'T0' password, different from those you use elsewhere.
- Your name and first name as they appear on an identity document, useful if the ticket is nominative.
- Possibly a 'T0' telephone number 'T1', practical for receiving a confirmation code.
Create your account, step by step
- 1
Click “Create Account” or “Register”
The button is generally located at the top of the page, or appears when finalizing the purchase.
- 2
Enter your email address
Check the spelling carefully: one letter too many and you will receive neither the confirmation nor the ticket.
- 3
Choose a password
Opt for a long and unique password. Avoid dates of birth and obvious sequels.
- 4
Fill in your information
Include your name and, if requested, your contact details. Give the right information, especially for a nominative ticket.
- 5
Validate your email address
You may receive an email or confirmation code to validate. Remember to check your spam emails.
- 6
You are now connected
Your account is ready. You can now buy and find your tickets in your personal space.
Guest purchasing: the alternative to an account
If you don't want to create an account right away, see if the "continue as guest" option is offered. You then purchase with just your email address, and the ticket is sent to you the same way. The disadvantage: without an account, you will not have space to easily find your purchases. Many platforms allow you to create the account later, with the same address.
