Payment

Pay with a relative’s wallet

Use a relative’s Afola Wallet with their authorisation given by email.

1 min readUpdated on 12 October 2026

No account, or not enough balance? A relative can pay for your tickets with their Afola Wallet. For your security and theirs, they must authorise every payment from their email address.

This option is available even when you are not signed in.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Choose “Another Afola Wallet”

    In the Payment method section.

  2. 2

    Enter the wallet number

    This is your relative’s wallet number, shown on their Wallet page (“Wallet No.”). Click Validate.

  3. 3

    Your relative receives an email

    “Waiting for confirmation…” is shown while your relative opens the email and accepts the request.

  4. 4

    Authorisation received

    The option turns green: “Wallet authorised”. The authorised amount is compared with the total to pay.

  5. 5

    Pay

    Click Pay now. Your relative’s wallet is debited and your tickets are issued.

Possible outcomes

Waiting for confirmation

The request was sent; your relative has not answered yet. You can Cancel at any time.

Wallet authorised

Your relative accepted and the balance covers the total: you can pay.

Insufficient balance

Authorisation accepted, but the balance does not cover the total. Remove seats to lower the amount.

Authorisation refused

Your relative declined the request. Choose another payment method.

Timed out

With no answer after about 4 minutes, the request expires. Try again or choose another payment method.

Connection error

The real-time connection failed. Click Retry.

Warn your relative in advance

The authorisation delay (about 4 minutes) and your seat lock run at the same time. Call your relative before validating so they watch their inbox.
