Can I pay by wire / bank transfer?
This facility is only available for large payments (currently €5,500 incl. VAT) and will become automatically available in the system when you reach the payment stage.
The deadline for making payment is 13 February 2026. As there are no onsite facilities, payment must be made prior to this date. Registrations after this date must be paid for by credit card.

How can I claim VAT back?
The GSMA does not promote a tax compliance and recovery service for MWC. This is due to differing standards of service and delivery available to different attendees and exhibitors in different countries. You may wish to undertake a search in your country for a reputable service provider and/or engage with your accounts or auditors for a recommendation specific to your organisation and country.

I can no longer attend the event; can I substitute my pass?
If you are no longer able to attend and want to give your pass to a colleague, you have two options:
- If you received your pass from an Exhibitor, Partner, Sponsor or GSMA, please contact them to let them know you will be unable to attend.
- Attendees who have purchased their passes can use the Substitution function in their accounts to give their pass to someone else (though you will still be liable for the full cost). Log in to your registration account and look for the option 'Request to Substitute My Pass' on the top right-hand side of the page.
