If you scan the QR code at the ticket office of Macau Taipa Ferry Terminal, they will exchange it for a ticket right away. I tend to get seasick, but the boat was big so it was very comfortable. I highly recommend it~~~~ ㅎㅎㅎㅎ

booking and confirmation are fast. able to get the e-Ticket within minutes as mentioned in the app. however, do note to go there early as the gate will close 4 mins prior to depature and cater some times to find the gate and security screening.
