Bill > H442

This bill aims to modernize the issuance and sale of sports and entertainment tickets. It defines a "ticket reseller" as any person or entity engaged in the business of reselling tickets, and sets consumer protection standards for ticket resellers. The bill requires ticket resellers to maintain a way for consumers to contact them, implement a standard refund policy, and take measures to prevent the sale of counterfeit tickets. It also allows ticket issuers to use non-transferable ticketing systems, but requires them to offer consumers an option to purchase transferable tickets. Additionally, the bill prohibits the use of software to circumvent ticket purchasing limits or order rules, and restricts ticket issuers and venues from penalizing or discriminating against ticket buyers or sellers based on how the tickets were resold.
