• Note: Registrations for someone below 18 can only be viewed and transferred by the guardian who registered them; registrations made by someone else on your behalf (if you are an adult) can be transferred by that person or by yourself after you Claim Registration in MyEvents; registrations for those who are part of a group-registration team cannot be transferred.
• Note: Transfers may only be completed into the same category - if the original registration was for a 5K, the new registration must also be for the 5K.
• Note: If a participant transfers categories BEFORE attempting to transfer the registration to someone else, the process cannot be completed.
• Note: The newest price is applied at checkout when the recipient accepts the transfer. If the event has a tiered price schedule, the current price could be higher than that for the original participant.
• Note: The original registration fee is not refunded until the new participant accepts and completes the transfer process - ACTIVE.com processing fees are not refunded.
• Note: Once the recipient has accepted and completed the transfer, the original registrant will be cancelled and refunded. Refunds are processed within 5-7 business days.

• Note: The system cannot refund automatically if the original registration was not paid directly (e.g., pre-paid registration, paid with coupon code). Please contact us in such cases.

• Solution: this means the registration has already been linked to an account. If you don't see it in MyEvents, it's possible to be under another Active account you have, or a wrong account with a typo.
