No refund on Eventbrite costs more. Pay service fees instead.

Have you purchased tickets through Eventbrite then discovered you were scammed? These paragraphs may explain why...

Eventbrite must pay service fees

Certain Eventbrite employees pay Visa, MasterCard and other credit card networks full costs of annual service fees to process many credit cards daily. Event organizers that sell tickets on Eventbrite receive a reduced pay (sometime after event concludes) to help cover network costs.

Anyone buying tickets to events that cancel should qualify for a full refund on Eventbrite. Let's stop there for one second...

Chance of no refund on Eventbrite

Hundreds of reports from Trustpilot and Pissed Consumer indicate people receive zero payment or no refund on eventbrite. This costs people their hard-earned money. We believe some Eventbrite staff steal people's money behind their backs during these inflationary times in order to:

  1. pay credit card networks amounts that they demand,
  2. pay more to cover costs of their luxurious vacations, and
  3. afford the costs of allowing organizers to issue full refunds.

Eventbrite stock levels have dropped by roughly 50% in one year. This means they'll do whatever they can to offset their expenses during current inflation to maintain customers, even if stealing organizer's profits in the background is on their agenda.

Paying service fees to event website is better

We pay non-refundable service fees to our electronic card processor on every ticket sale, plus room rental and transit fees. Like Eventbrite organizers, we'll accept the loss of those fees from our pay. People who opt for an eligible refund must pay service fees we forward to our processor. This allows us to:

  1. Bypass huge debt for consistent canceled events,
  2. Maintain and update a high-speed high-quality website, and
  3. Ensure all bookkeeping is accurate while responding to customer inquiries daily.

Pay service fees or no eventbrite refund

The choice is yours

Would you continue ordering tickets to events from eventbrite that later cancel only to learn you'll never receive a refund? OR

Will you buy direct from organizers that make non-refundable service fees cost little, while refunding the remaining money to you upon event cancellation?

Choosing option 1 instead of option 2 can cost you more money!

Service fees are cheaper

Receiving no refund on eventbrite costs more because your loss equals the full ticket price which likely exceeds $10.

If you proceed with Eventbrite, you'll experience depression from overspending on event tickets which may be fake.
