Steps
Scanning a Physical Gift Card
- Open Wallet. It's a black app with a white wallet and colored cards displayed. Wallet is typically found on the iPhone Home Screen.
- Tap + to the right of the "Passes" heading. Doing so will prompt you to select a pass option.
- Tap Scan Code to Add a Pass. It's near the middle of the screen.
- Place your Fandango gift card on a flat surface. The pass' bar code should be facing up.
- 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
- Open Fandango. It's a white app with an orange "F" outlined on it.
- First download the Fandango app if you haven't yet done so.
- You can also go to the Fandango website on your iPhone's Safari browser.
- Tap Account. It's in the bottom-right corner of the screen.
- Tap Sign In. This link is near the top of the screen.
- 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.
- Tap Sign In. This option is below the "Email" and "Password" fields.
- Tap Purchases. It's at the top of the page.
- If you're on the mobile site instead, tap See all purchases here.
- Tap a ticket's name. Doing so will open the ticket's information.
- 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.
