Self-Refunds
In some cases, you may be able to refund your badge directly from your Member ID account. We encourage you to log in to your Member ID account and locate your badge order under “My Orders”. If the “Refund & Remove” button is visible, you can process your refund without submitting a refund request form. All refunds are subject to a 10% processing fee.
You must register for a Comic-Con Member ID in order to be entitled to purchase and register a badge. Children (age 12 and under) may not register for a Comic-Con Member ID. Everyone who intends to purchase, apply, or register for a Comic-Con badge must have a valid and confirmed Comic-Con Member ID. This includes attendees, volunteers, professionals, guests of professionals, retailers, panel key contacts, exhibitor key contacts, staff, and members of the press. You must also have a valid and confirmed Comic-Con Member ID to redeem a complimentary pass or purchase code. If SDCC determines that you purchased or registered for a badge, but did not register for a Comic-Con Member ID, SDCC has the right to cancel your badge and refund any amounts paid, less the 10% processing fee and the $10 handling fee, at SDCC's sole discretion.

SDCC Cancellation Policy: By registering for a paid or complimentary Comic-Con or WonderCon badge you agree not to sell, trade, transfer, or share your complimentary code, badge confirmation, or badge. In the event that San Diego Comic Convention/WonderCon/Comic-Con International (SDCC) determines that you have violated this policy, SDCC has the right to cancel your badge(s) and keep any money paid by you.
Confirmations and/or badges that have been sold or provided by anyone other than SDCC will not be honored by SDCC. You must wear and display your badge at all times while on-site and at any official SDCC event. All badges are the property of SDCC and must be relinquished to SDCC upon request. SDCC reserves the right to refuse admission, to refuse service, and/or to cancel/revoke your Member ID and/or badge at SDCC’s discretion.
I understand that I must register an individual name for each badge and that each name must match a legal photo ID. If SDCC determines that you have purchased more than one badge in your name for any day, SDCC has the right to cancel your duplicate badge(s) and issue you a refund less the 10% processing fee and the $10 handling fee, at SDCC's sole discretion.
If you use your Member ID to purchase a badge for a day for which you previously purchased a badge, the original badge you purchased will automatically be canceled and the amount paid will be refunded, less the 10% processing fee and the $10 handling fee, without contacting you.
For example, if you purchased a Friday and Saturday badge during Comic-Con Open Registration and you use your Member ID to register as a professional and/or press with Preview Night at a later date, the Friday and Saturday badge you purchased during Open Registration will be canceled and refunded, less the 10% processing fee and the $10 handling fee.
This policy does not apply to purchasing different single-day badges or upgrades. For example, if you purchased a Thursday and Sunday badge during Comic-Con Returning Registration and you later use your Member ID to purchase a Friday, Saturday, and Preview Night badge, your original Thursday and Sunday badge purchase will not be canceled. Only purchases of badges with overlapping dates will be subject to automatic cancelation and refund.
