Catalan term

Adquirent com a significat de Comprador

Catalan to English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general)
This is the header to an incomplete document. It's baffling me. Adquirent is in black, and the other part is in red. It's the conditions for the purchase of a ski pass, and they only sent me two missing paragraphs, which explain how you can cancel the pass.

Adquirent com a significat de Comprador

Wild guess:
Puchasers - significance of being a Buyer

Acquirer with the meaning of/meaning Purchaser

I think it means they're referring to people who are hold a pass because they've bought it.

Noun 1. acquirer - a person who acquires something (usually permanently) acquirer - a person who acquires something (usually permanently)

Isn't purchaser a synonym for buyer?

Another more natural sounding option:

People holding passes which they have purchased.

Purchaser (or user) in the sense of buyer

Given the context you've mentioned, that it's the conditions, this would be my guess.

Yes, it does seem to imply that someone other than the buyer could be the owner of the pass (could be a child, or group who have had their passes bought, or part of a pack hotel/pass, etc).
I understand that they are saying whoever that is, is considered the buyer. So even if they didn't actually purchase it, they are considered "buyer".
Maybe you should request a little more context of this sentence to be sure.
Note from asker:
The conclusion I came to was that there must be another section which refers to people who receive the ticket, but who are not the buyer.
