Apple Account Binding
Apple Account Binding
Starting this year, Apple has implemented Account Binding when single game transfers or purchased tickets from NC State Athletics are downloaded to your Apple Wallet.
What is Account Binding?
- Account binding adds security to your mobile tickets by binding/linking your NC State tickets account to your Apple ID.
- This prevents unauthorized sharing while keeping the same easy entry experience you're used to.
- We highly recommend promptly downloading your tickets from My Account to the Account Primary iPhone you plan to use for entry on gameday. This helps prevent confusion with other single game tickets you may have.
A Guide to Successful Account Binding
Step 1: Choose your Account Primary iPhone
- Before anyone adds a ticket to an Apple Wallet, your group should designate one person as the Account Primary iPhone.
- The Account Primary iPhone adds the first ticket to their Apple Wallet and will be the one to transfer tickets to others if needed.
Step 2: Account Primary iPhone is always first to download tickets into their Apple Wallet.
- The Account Primary iPhone will transfer tickets to anyone who will enter the event separately via My Account in their NC State tickets account.
- Each member who wants a ticket on their own device must have their own NC State tickets account to accept transfer tickets from the Account Primary.
Step 3: Always use your My Account transfer in your NC State tickets account to share tickets with family and friends.
- Sharing log‑ins, screenshots, emails or texts with ticket links will result in disabled passes.
Step 4: If you cannot attend, use SeatGeek to resell your tickets.
- SeatGeek tickets are not impacted by Account Binding at this time.
