Biometric Finger Scanners and how they work.

One reason they ask you for your zip code is to verify that you are who owns the ticket. A CM at Epcot told me about it this time when we went. Evidently the scans dont always work as the numbers are not 100% unique. When I went in the CM asked me my zip and I told her. Then she said "ok, you'd be amazed how many people try to use other people's tickets and dont even know any of their information".

My daughter and granddaughter live in Maryland. DD's fiancee lives in Pennsylvania. I live in Ohio, and I will be purchasing all of our tickets in one batch - probably from Ticketmania. Since the sale will be recorded in my name, with my zip code, should we all just use that one if asked?

One is assuming that Ticketmania is providing WDW with this information and purchasing individual tickets from WDW instead of massive quantities and simply mailing us tickets from that stock.
