The Official Ticket Exchange benefits season ticket holders wishing to sell their seat for an individual game, and both season ticket holders and members buying a spare seat at Stamford Bridge.

It can be accessed by clicking on Ticket Exchange.

The Exchange is a safe, legal and simple way for a season ticket holder not attending a fixture to pass their seat to another fan and recover the full pro-rata cost the match represents in their season ticket price. In practice that is the total season ticket price divided by 19, the number of home league games a season.

It will only operate for Premier League games. Tickets can be sold on from 42 days before the fixture and it does not cost a Chelsea season ticket holder anything to use.

Any season ticket or club member can purchase tickets from the Ticket Exchange at the same price they would pay were they buying a ticket from the box office, plus the standard £1.50 booking fee always charged when buying a match ticket.

As the cost of a match ticket when it is calculated as a percentage of a season ticket’s price is in almost all cases less than the regular price a member pays for a seat in the same area of the ground, the additional money will be donated to the Chelsea FC Foundation, the club’s charity organisation which uses the power of sport to bring about positive changes in people's lives and their communities.

The aim of this scheme is to ensure as many of our fans can attend a match as possible and for every seat at Stamford Bridge to be occupied.

The new Chelsea FC Ticket Exchange is a fair and straightforward way to ensure tickets do not go to waste, and financially it is an improvement on the previous exchange for all supporters who use the service.
