Perfect World Esports Counter-Strike Shanghai Major – International Ticketing FAQ

1.	What is needed in order to purchase tickets?

    1.1.	You must have a valid Vivenu account.

    1.2.	You must upload a valid passport, and ensure that all information provided is up to date and accurate. This passport must be the same passport as the one matching your own identity (it must be your own passport), and you MUST be able to bring this passport to the venue on the day that you plan to attend the event. 

    1.3.	Expired or otherwise inaccurate passports and forms of identification will NOT be accepted.

    1.4.	You must ensure that your identity information is accurate and matches your valid passport that you provide in step 2.

    1.5.	After completing your ticket purchase, you will be prompted to complete a ‘Personalization’ process on the ticket. This includes entering the unique passport and identity details corresponding to each individual ticket. Personalization must be completed accurately within 14 days of your transaction being confirmed in order for you to enter using your tickets.

    2.1.	This is a required process where each individual ticket is tied to an identity, which can be verified on-site in order to grant the ticket holder entry. Without this process being completed, tickets are NOT valid for entry.

    2.2.	What this means is that if you buy 2 sets of tickets for a single day and wish to bring your friend with you for one of those tickets, you must both complete your own individual personalization, and your friend must independently complete their own personalization, in order for the 2 sets of tickets to work. This must also be done by the deadline, and the deadline for both sets of tickets in this scenario share the same deadline – 14 days within the transaction being confirmed.

3.	When does ticket ‘Personalization’ need to be finished?

    3.1.	This must be completed, accurately, within 14 days of your transaction being confirmed. For clarity, Personalization is required by the venue and local government regulations and there are 

. The sooner you complete this process, the better to ensure entry on-site is smooth for you and your party.

    3.2.	There will be reminders sent out, but we recommend you to finish this step as soon as possible after ticket purchase, and these reminders are only sent as a courtesy – it is your responsibility to ensure you meet all ticketing and entry requirements.

    4.1.	The timer for Personalization begins right after your ticket purchase is confirmed. You have 14 days from this to confirm personalization for each ticket in your purchase order.

: Each ‘personalization’ is tied to one passport identity. Each passport is tied to one ticket. Each ticket is tied to one entry. Therefore, each passport grants entry to one person, per day, per ticket. No more, and no less. You will not be able to bring multiple individuals into the venue using one passport, even if that passport is connected via personalization to multiple tickets.

5.	What happens if I do not finish my ‘Personalization’ or cannot confirm an identity to tie to the ticket before the deadline?

    5.1. Your ticket will be cancelled and you will be refunded. Unfortunately we must follow this guideline due to local regulations regarding ticket identity verification processes. 

    5.2. We cannot make exceptions for cases where someone is unable to confirm their companion, renewing passports, or anything similar.

    6.1.	We are selling tickets in two different types of two-day bundles: a Weekday bundle for Thursday-Friday, and another Weekend bundle for Saturday-Sunday.

        10.2.1.	For example, a valid account may purchase two Weekday bundles, and two Weekend bundles in a single transaction, HOWEVER, once the transaction is completed, that account may not purchase any more tickets.
