Re: 2023/24: Everton v Burnley – Ticket Information

I've never had a digital ticket before.
Will it be in order to print the e-mail, which presumably will have a QR code on it, and present the printout at the turnstile, or will I have to work out how to download the ticket from my tablet or laptop to my phone?
