Monthly Membership FAQ
What Benefits Do I Get If I Purchase A Monthly Membership?
Each holder on a Monthly Pass will receive all of the standard benefits for a member of the San Antonio Zoo in effect at any given time to include unlimited admissions to San Antonio Zoo whenever it is open to the public, the “Bring A Friend” free tickets, discounts, and various other benefits as described on San Antonio Zoo’s monthly pass section of the webpage for a basic membership pass.
What if my Monthly membership expires due to non-payment?
Yes, you can update your form of payment from logging into your portal. To login to the web portal from your smartphone you must go to https://sazoo.ticketapp.org/portal/.
What happens if my monthly passes expire due to non-payment and I purchase new processing fees for new passes?
You do not need to buy new processing fee, simply pay the past due amount for the months not paid to activate your membership. If you have repurchased new processing fee, this can be applied towards your lapsed/expired memberships. As a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, we do not issue refunds.
Can I cancel my Annual Pass to join the Monthly Membership Program?
No. If you have a current annual pass we highly recommend you stay on it. If cancelling your annual pass, you will lose out on all remaining months and benefits associated with the pass level you have.

Can I use my Monthly Membership at other Zoos and Aquariums?
San Antonio Zoo is a part of Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) Reciprocal Program. However, not all AZA-accredited zoos and aquariums participate in the Reciprocal Admissions Program. Should you have any questions about an institution’s participation in the Reciprocal Program, please contact the zoo or aquarium directly BEFORE you visit.
Do you offer Senior, or Military discounts for Monthly Memberships?
We offer Senior and Military discounts for daily admission online. We do not offer senior or military for our Monthly Memberships.
I do not have my smartphone on me with my digital pass. Can I still enter the zoo?
If you do not have access to a Digital Membership, we can assist with setting up your Membership and attaching it to a physical card. If you have already set it up and generated a barcode, we can no longer attach your Membership to a card.
