• Tiketti
• Lippu.fi
• Ticketmaster

Buy tickets from Tiketti´s online store 

You can pay for tickets with the benefit of Edenred directly in Tiketti's online store. When buying a ticket for an event that can be paid for with the cultural benefit, you will see the Edenred icon in the payment method menu. After payment, you will receive the ticket as a pdf file in your email. In addition to the ticket, you can pay its delivery fee with your benefit.

Please note that you can use your benefit to pay for a ticket only for your own use. If you buy several tickets for the same event at the same time, you can pay for your own ticket with your Edenred benefit and the final amount with another payment method. You can also buy a gift card for yourself from Tiketti's online store.

Tiketti.fi online store

Buy your ticket from Edenred's own Lippu.fi online store

You can easily find all the events covered by the cultural benefit or a gift card for yourself in Lippu.fi's separate Edenred ticket shop, where you can only pay with Edenred's Virike benefit and lippu.fi gift card. When paying with Edenred, you can buy Lipputurva for your ticket in the shopping cart stage and use a gift card or access code in the same way as in the lippu.fi online store. For example, if your Virike benefit is only enough for part of the ticket price, you can pay the difference by getting yourself a Lippu.fi gift card for the appropriate amount.

Buying tickets with the Virike benefit

Before booking and picking up the ticket, also note the following:

• You can pay for the event ticket and its delivery fee in advance. If the balance of your Virike benefit is not enough for the entire event ticket, you can pay part of it with Virike benefit and the rest with another payment method.
• Acceptance of cards and notes is always specific to the point of sale. Before picking up your ticket, it's a good idea to check our location search to see which locations accept Edenred's payment methods.
  Pay attention to the ticket pick-up date. The last pick-up day can be marked on the same day when the reservation is made.
• The Virike benefit is a personal benefit offered by the employer, so it is not possible to pay for tickets with the Virike benefit for friends or family members, for example.
• Redemption points may charge for redemption. If another redemption fee is added to the ticket price, the redemption office is responsible for this fee.
• Please note that cultural events defined by the Tax authorities do not include, for example, cooking courses, wine tastings or visits to amusement parks. You can read more detailed instructions on cultural events that are covered by the tax benefit on the Tax authority´s  website.
