Video and picture guide showing each step to add your Mobile Season Ticket to your wallet.
Mobile Tickets are digital passes that can be stored within Apple Wallet or Google Pay on your smartphone or smartwatch.
Mobile Tickets use NFC technology and can be used for contactless entry into both the Etihad Stadium and Joie Stadium by holding your device above the reader at the turnstile.
Models supported are; the original Apple Watch and later, all Face ID iPhones and all Touch ID iPhones except 5s.
See our video below for how to scan a mobile ticket.
All match tickets that have been purchased by Cityzens Matchday Members will be loaded to your Mobile Membership Pass. You will not be able to download your match ticket directly from ‘my tickets’ as your match ticket will be loaded to the pass.
If your pass has not yet been downloaded, this can be done from the ‘Memberships’ tab.
If you have changed your mobile device or have removed your Season Ticket from your Apple Wallet*/Google Pay please follow the videos below to re-download. If for any reason you receive an error message when re-downloading to your device please contact the Club.
*If you have recently updated your Apple iPhone to the latest iOS software and your pass does not show in your wallet please retrieve this from ‘View Expired Passes’ in the first instance.

From here, if you scroll down to the bottom of the page, you should see 'View Expired Passes', click this and then look for your Season Ticket. Once you have found your Season Ticket, click it, and then press 'unhide'. This should then move your Season Ticket, back to the main page of your Apple Wallet.

Your season ticket pass should always update to the next fixture, automatically. However, this will only work if you have updates enabled in your Apple or Google Wallet.
Apple Wallet: For iPhone users, go to your Apple Wallet and then click on your Seasonal Pass. In the top right corner, there will be a circle with three dots, and on the next page make sure ‘Automatic Updates’ is turned on, once you have done this, if you drag the screen down to manually update your pass on this occasion, the correct game should be displayed.
Google Wallet: In Google Wallet, click the 3 lines in the top left corner, then go to Settings. From here, you can turn on ‘Updates about your passes’. An alternative method to manually update your Mobile Season Ticket is to restart your Android Device and this should update your Mobile Season Ticket.
