2020: Can I Transfer To Another Spartan Race, Another Person, Or Both?

Sometimes, things happen, and you're just not able to make an event that you had planned on. Not to worry, Spartan Race does allow you to defer your unused registration.

Timelines:

• 30 Days To Transfer Your Registration: You have up until 30 days after your originally scheduled race. The new race does not need to be within 30 days, you just need to transfer by then. 
• The option to defer will be taken offline WEDNESDAY prior to the event as all of the bibs for the race weekend need to be prepared. It will come back online by Wednesday after the event once we are able to verify the bibs that have not been used.

Pricing: 

• To transfer your race, there will be an JPY5000 transfer fee
• If you want to defer your entry, you will need to pay the Insurance/System Fee again for the new event - NO EXCEPTIONS.
• When you defer your registration to a future event, you will be given a credit for the equivalent of the same distance race. When transferring, you will be responsible for any difference in price between the new race entry fee and your credit. 
• Total - Upon checking out, the charges reflected will include the credit from your original price applied against the total of the new race entry fee. The remaining fees will include any remaining balance from your credit, the participant insurance, the transfer fee, the processing fees, and any applicable taxes. 
• You will not be able to combine a transfer with any other coupons, offers, passes, or vouchers. 
• The deferment credit is valid for a single use on a registration. Any deferment credit remaining after you sign up for the new event will be forfeited. It cannot be used for future events, processing fees, or merchandise.  
• At this time, you can only transfer your race to another Spartan event within Japan.
