What a change costs
The difference is the gap between the two tickets' prices today. Moving up is paid by card, with a 50p ticket upgrade fee; moving down follows your refund policy.

How is the difference worked out?
Hubbaly compares what each ticket costs today, for that session. What the person first paid does not change it.
So someone who bought at an early bird price pays today's gap, not more. A gap under £1 counts as the same price.
| Their ticket today | New ticket today | They pay |
|---|---|---|
| Class place, £30 | Class place, evening, £30 | Nothing |
| Class place, £30 | Class place with prints, £50 | £20.50 (£20 and the 50p fee) |
| Class place, £30 (bought at £20) | Class place with prints, £50 | £20.50 (£20 and the 50p fee) |
What happens when someone moves up?
They check the change, then pay the difference and a 50p ticket upgrade fee by card. The fee is once per payment, however many tickets move. The new place is held while they pay.
Nothing changes until the payment goes through. If they leave the payment page, they keep the ticket they had.

What happens when someone moves to a cheaper ticket?
They can, and the screen says what happens to the money before they confirm.
Your event's Refund policy has a choice for this, Moving to a cheaper ticket. Every event starts on No refund. Refund the difference sends it back to the card that paid, automatically, after Hubbaly's fee and the card company's percentage on the difference are kept, until your refund deadline if you set one.

Can people change several tickets at once?
Yes. Someone holding several tickets for an event can change them together, with one payment.
All of them move, or none of them do, so a group is never split.

What does it cost when you make the change?
- Moving someone up
- A complimentary upgrade. They pay nothing.
- Same price
- Nothing to pay and nothing to refund.
- Moving someone down
- No money moves unless you tick the refund. The amount is filled in, and you can change it.
Can you stop people changing tickets?
Yes. Each event's ticket rules have Changing tickets, which starts on. Turn it off when people must stay in the session they booked.

What it cannot do
- People cannot change once their session has started, or once they are checked in.
- Holders cannot change complimentary, bundle or staff tickets. You can change a complimentary one.
- On an event for invited people only, only you can change tickets.
- Paid moves need card payments set up. Until then, people see only changes that cost nothing extra.
- A ticket waiting on a transfer, a return or a payment cannot change until that is done.
