Steps

Scanning a Physical Gift Card

  1. Open Wallet. It's a black app with a white wallet and colored cards displayed. Wallet is typically found on the iPhone Home Screen.
  2. Tap + to the right of the "Passes" heading. Doing so will prompt you to select a pass option.
  3. Tap Scan Code to Add a Pass. It's near the middle of the screen.
  4. Place your Fandango gift card on a flat surface. The pass' bar code should be facing up.
  5. Point your iPhone at the card. If the card is supported in Wallet, doing so will immediately scan it into the Wallet app.
    • If the card isn't supported in Wallet, you won't be able to add it to Wallet.

Adding a Digital Ticket

  1. Open Fandango. It's a white app with an orange "F" outlined on it.
  2. Tap Account. It's in the bottom-right corner of the screen.
  3. Tap Sign In. This link is near the top of the screen.
  4. Enter your Fandango email address and password. You'll do so in the "Email" and "Password" text fields in the middle of the screen, respectively.
  5. Tap Sign In. This option is below the "Email" and "Password" fields.
  6. Tap Purchases. It's at the top of the page.
    • If you're on the mobile site instead, tap See all purchases here.
  7. Tap a ticket's name. Doing so will open the ticket's information.
  8. Tap Add to Wallet. This button, shaped like the Wallet app icon, will add the Fandango ticket to your iPhone's Wallet.
    • If you don't see this option, the theater at which your ticket works doesn't support Wallet. This is common for older theaters.

Tips

  • If you used the Fandango app to purchase your ticket but Wallet won't acknowledge the pass, you can simply show the in-app receipt to a staff member at your selected movie theater.
