Twickets’ New Zealand (.nz) operations come under Danny Hannaford,who already runs the Australian operations from his Melbourne base. “Now this partnership offers event organisers the peace of mind that their fans have a secure place to buy and sell tickets at face value.” “The industry has a responsibility to both educate consumers and drive innovation around fraud prevention and scalping. Phil Silverstone, General Manager of Eventbrite ANZ added, “While a secondary ticketing market has a role in enabling attendees to transfer ownership of their tickets when, inevitably, plans change, it has also created opportunities for consumer exploitation. “We are happy to be bringing face value resale to more events through this partnership, giving event-goers the peace of mind that they are not only getting a fair deal, but also that they will be guaranteed entry to the event itself with an officially reissued ticket.” Twickets founder Richard Davies ( pictured), said: “It’s great to be partnering with Eventbrite, who share our commitment to providing fair ticket resale. Once that ticket has been resold, the original ticket is cancelled and a new one issued to the buyer. It means that Eventbrite customers who have a valid reason to sell their tickets, can easily sell their unwanted tickets at a fair price by listing tickets on Twickets by logging into their Eventbrite account within the Twickets platform.
