As someone in the payments industry, event tickets are very risky. You can sell event tickets, get paid. The events is far out in the future and all is well, then on the day of event you're a no show and the chargebacks starts rolling in. If you can't pay it, then the processor eats it.
- tinus_hn 8y agoCan’t you use a payment system that doesn’t allow chargebacks?
- tehwebguy 8y agoNot if you want people to attend. Cash, wire transfer, money order & crypto aren’t how people buy tickets ahead of an event.
- GFischer 8y agoIn the U.S., you mean. I've seen plenty of events (usually professional conferences) that have to be paid in cash or wire transfer here in South America.
- muzani 8y agoI've never actually bought tickets with PayPal. It's acceptable in a lot of places. Then again, the tickets I buy aren't over $25.
