What is Away Ticket Exchange?
As part of our continued efforts to improve the ticketing experience for our supporters and to ensure all tickets are used by genuine Arsenal supporters, we are pleased to announce a new Away Ticket Exchange service replacing Away Ticket Transfer, which will be available from our first away fixture with Manchester United for the 2025-26 season.
Who can use Away Ticket Exchange
Away Ticket Exchange allows eligible away ticket holders to sell their ticket for an away game they cannot attend. Away tickets can be purchase by a "Qualifying Supporter", who holds the relevant number of away points to be eligible to purchase a ticket for the away fixture when originally sold out. This is subject to change due to availability. Please check the relevant away ticket information pages.
Supporters can access the Away Ticket Exchange in the same way as the Ticket Exchange facility and will be able to post for any tickets that they have manage privileges for. There will be no fee to use the service and the seller will receive the full ticket value back minus the original booking fees.
How do I Sell on the Away Ticket Exchange?
If an away ticket purchaser can no longer attend the game, they will have the option to sell their ticket to another supporter who possesses the required number of away points at which the game sells out. This information can be found on the ticket information page for the relevant fixture. The supporter purchasing the ticket must be a Gold/Platinum Season Ticket Holder or Travel Club Member with the specific points and cannot already have a ticket registered to their membership account for the specific game.
If an away ticket is purchased by to "Qualifying Supporter", the away point is removed from the original buyer and added to the new purchaser.
Away Ticket Sanction Policy
The new Away Ticket Exchange process provides a legitimate way for supporters who can no longer attend to sell their ticket to another supporter and any supporter who cannot attend the game after purchasing a ticket is encouraged to use this facility.
As per our Away Ticket Terms and Conditions, any supporter who breaches these terms by failing to collect their ticket when requested to do so may be subject to the below sanctions. These sanctions will also be enforced if someone other than the intended recipient attempts to collect the ticket:
- First strike: Lose 1 away point
- Second strike: Lose 10 away points
- Third strike: Lose all away points
We are also working with other clubs in relation to scanned ticket data and if we are notified by the host club regarding any unused tickets, we will remove the away loyalty point in this instance also. This would not count towards the sanctions detailed here.
Any ticket purchaser who is found to have sold or attempted to sell their ticket for above face value risks losing their Season Ticket or Membership completely. Any Season Ticket Holder who receives a ban can appeal by contacting the Club from the date they were notified of the ban.
