Credit refund
and here's how it works:

Please send us an email about this to:

kulturakademie@diakonie-nordnordost.de

Please include the following information in your email:

  • Your full name
  • Your chip number
  • Your IBAN
  • a note stating that you would like your remaining credit to be refunded

The repayment will then be processed directly by Diakonie Nord Nord Ost. Please allow for a longer processing time of around 10 to 14 working days .

Would you like to forgo your refund and do something good instead?

In that case, you can simply leave your remaining credit on the wristband. Any credit that is not claimed supports the work of Diakonie Nord Nord Ost and helps to make inclusive cultural, educational and participatory activities possible for many people.

Every euro helps to foster connections and promote cultural participation for everyone.

In your personal account, you'll find an overview of all transactions made.
Here, too, delays may occur if the connection is poor.

CASHLESS

Starting in 2026, the SUPERKUNSTFESTIVAL will go completely cashless—fast, easy, and without the hassle of searching for change. This will make your festival experience even more relaxed and accessible for everyone. 

You can find out exactly how it works and what options you have on our cashless payment page.

Cashless is a payment system designed to make your visit as easy as possible. You’ll receive a wristband that you can load with the amount of your choice. You can use it to pay at any bar, food truck, or the or merchandise stand throughout the festivalgrounds—quickly and easily. 
At the end of your visit, you can easily get a refund easily get arefund via our email address.

Yes, absolutely. Your wristband is protected by high-security encryption, so your balance and personal data cannot be copied or stolen. 

WRISTBAND

You'll receive your wristband as soon as you scan your ticket at the entrance. 

Your wristband is your only form of payment throughout the festival grounds. You can use it to pay everywhere—at bars, food trucks, and the merchandise stand.

Your wristband is valid for the entire festival. For security reasons, there is a maximum credit limit of 250 euros per top-up.

Yes, rain and sun won't damage your wristband. 

Take good care of your bracelet; it's your wallet at the festival.
Should you lose your wristband, you can get a new one by presenting your ticket at the Info Point at Gate 1.
If you have set up a user account, your loaded money is linked to your ticket and will also be available to you with a new wristband. 
If you haven't set up a user account, your deposited money is unfortunately lost.

You can simply dispose of your wristband if you have already had your money refunded or if you wish to donate the credit balance.

However, you must not put the chip in the general household waste. To dispose of it, you can simply hand it in as electronic waste at the same place where you would hand in batteries. 

Of course, you’re also welcome to keep your bracelet as a memento. 

TOP UP / CREDIT

You can top up your card online before the festival. During the festival, you can top up at any time at our top-up stations. These are located outside the information and merchandise stand.

At the venue, you can pay at the top-up stations using a debit or credit card, Google Pay or Apple Pay. You can only top up your wristband with cash directly at the merchandise stand.

Sign up on the Cashless website using your email address and ticket number. In your account, select your preferred top-up option, add it to your cart, and pay using one of the available payment methods.

It’s best to top up enough for your entire visit—that way, you’ll avoid waiting in line at the charging stations. The standard limit per wristband is €250.

Your wristband is valid for the entire duration of the festival, and you can use it as often as you like.

Then you cannot pay and are asked to top up again at a top-up station. 

You can check your current balance before and after each transaction, as well as at any location on the premises. If you have any questions, you can view your transaction history online at any time.
Note: Due to connection issues, the display may be delayed. If necessary, wait until the end of the day for the final summary.
