Cashless
We are operating a cashless system at Snowboxx. It's safer and easier than using your bank card or cash. It also means less queuing and more riding and dancing šŗ
Please take a photo of the 6 digit number on the back of the RFID chip as this will be required to claim your refund.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Your festival wristband will have an RFID chip that can be topped up and used like a prepaid bank card across all festival bars, the merch stand and other festival traders. All prices will be in Euros.
You can top up your wristband online before the festival, or at one of our top up points across the festival site.
These stations accept card payments only. Stations will be busy during the first few days so we advise to top up online and skip the queues.
HOW CAN I TOP UP ONLINE?
Easy, just follow these simple steps:
- Register a secure cashless account online using your boarding pass sent to you via email.
- Add the amount of money that you want to top up.
- When you get to Snowboxx, you will exchange your cashless boarding pass and e-ticket for a wristband that has your money loaded on to it. You can skip straight to Step 5!
- If you haven't created your online account in advance, no problem! Just come back to this page URL and create an account OR go to the dedicated event top up stations at the festival to add funds to your wristband.
- You're now ready to get purchasing on site!
CAN I REFUND ANY UNSPENT CREDIT?
Absolutely. Feel free to top up in advance as much as you would like, as any leftover is refundable online after the festival.
Please take a photo of the 6 digit number on the back of the RFID chip as this will be required to claim your refund.
Refunds will open on the 24th of March at 12 midday and you will have 2 weeks to claim yours.
Please make sure to claim yours by 23:59 on 6th April 2025. After that point you will not be able to apply for any leftover funds on your wristband but not to worry, we will send you an email when the refund window opens to remind you.
FEES
Please note there are some small fees involved in using the cashless system:
- Activation fee: 1ā¬
- Refund fee: 1ā¬
These help us cover part of the costs of running the cashless system and the commissions charged by the credit card providers.
TOP UP STATION OPENING HOURS
There will be two types of top up stations on site, there will be self top up stations that will be running 24/7 and there will be top stations that will be staffed located across the festival site and will operate from 09:00 am - 00:30 am. The top up locations and opening hours are:
- Help Desk: Saturday from 09:00 - 02:00, Sunday - Saturday from 09:00 - 19:00
- Main Stage: Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday from 19:00 - 00:30
WHAT HAPPENS IF I LOSE MY WRISTBAND?
Your wristband should remain securely fastened to your wrist. There shouldn't be any reason for you to remove it, until the event has ended. You should treat your wristband as you would cash or your bank card.
From our experience, it's very very rare for one of the wristbands to break. If you lose it, we won't be able to recover any balance but if you have taken a photo of your 6 digit number on the back of the RFID chip you will be able to claim a refund after the festival.
