Steps to Retrieve Your Fandango Barcode

1. Open the Fandango App - Launch the Fandango app on your mobile device. This is the first step in accessing your ticket details. 2. Sign In - Ensure that you are signed in to the account you used for your purchase. This will allow you to verify and access your ticket information. 3.

Alternative Methods to Retrieve Your Fandango Barcode

1. Check Email - Look for the confirmation email from Fandango. It often contains a link to your ticket and the barcode. If you have filtered emails or your inbox is cluttered, check your spam folder as well. 2. Contact Fandango Support - If you're still having trouble locating your ticket, consider reaching out to Fandango customer support for assistance. They can help guide you through the retrieval process.

Additional Tips for Theatre Entry

- Ensure your phone is charged and ready to show the barcode when you arrive at the theater. - At most theaters, if the email method fails, you can swipe the credit card used for payment at a box office register or an automated kiosk. This will print your ticket. Note that this method may not work if you paid with PayPal or a Fandango gift card. - If you used a theater membership card to make the purchase, you can also retrieve tickets from the same method used for a credit card swipe. Alternatively, most theater greeters can scan your membership card, which will display any tickets associated with it, similar to how a barcode would.

Conclusion

Fandango typically sends a text message or email with access to your barcode. If you face any issues, use the methods outlined above to ensure a smooth entry to the theater. Different theaters may have slightly different procedures, but the above steps should cover most scenarios.
