Can't add tickets to my wallet with TicketMaster app

Phone is updated to 16.6 I have purchased tickets with my ticketmaster app but it will not let me add my tickets to my wallet. Even tried logging in thru safai and it still doesn't work. The message I get every single time I try to add to my wallet..... "Unable to Add Pass. Your pass could not be added to Wallet at this time. Try again later." Anyone else having this issue?

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 16

Try a forced restart and try adding ticket again. If that doesn’t work please talk to Ticketmaster support. This issue has been reported recently and from posts and replies in the community, it usually is a Ticketmaster issue.

Another problem is when Ticketmaster tickets are sold by another venue.


I just dealt with this headache for tickets sold by the United Center that were transferred to one person who is attending the event.


Even if you know you're dealing with Ticketmaster tickets, you may need the venue's app to view the tickets.


In our case, we needed the United Center app to view the tickets. I finally told the group leader to give up on loading the tickets into Apple Wallet & just use the United Center app.

This is about the same timeframe the same issue happened for me and still continues. Regardless, if I use the app or I go directly from the website, I was at the Apple Store recently and the tech they told me that it was not an apple issue that it was a Ticketmaster issue and Ticketmaster says the same thing says that it’s an apple issue. are we ever going to find a resolution to this? App was uninstalled and then reinstalled with no luck. Then I did a force shut down/restarted my phone still nothing. I currently have 17.1.1

I can’t say it’s all on Apple but the issue began, for me, with an update last year and was rectified with a future update. But with the last 2-3 updates the issue started all over again, so that would lead me to believe it’s a bug with Apple that isn’t being fixed.


I can’t speak for 17.4.1 as I have not needed tickets since updated this past week but 17.4 still caused the issue.


So, I’m not a software engineer but looks like primarily an Apple software issue.

Same issue too and it is frustrating! Apple says that the issue is with Ticketmaster and Ticketmaster says that the issue is with Apple..Can someone just create an update to fix this? I have an iPhone 14 and iOS 16.6 and I transferred my tickets to someone with an older iPhone and they had no problem adding these tickets to their Apple Wallet..I tried everything (restarting phone; talking with tech supports; going to tech supports) and see that this is an issue with many of the new iPhones...Is it time to go Android?

Same issue with not being able to add tickets to iphone wallet from Ticketmaster. I've never had this issue before. Updated my iphone 11 to ios 16.7, deleted and reinstalled Ticketmaster app, re started phone, switched from wifi to data and still wasn't able to add tickets with face id. When I was out running errands I decided to try again and low and behold the tickets were transferred to my wallet! So glad it worked. What is going to happen next time I purchase tickets through Ticketmaster?!

Issue went away with 17.2 but since the upset to 17.3 and now 17.3.1 it is back to not working (pass will show was disabled in Apple Wallet after a little time passes.


Very frustrating and can’t find a work around, so we are at the mercy of Apple to get it together. I don’t go to a ton of events but enough to consider an Android when it’s time to upgrade.
