#### **IMPORTANT INFORMATION**

Standard Payout Process

By default, ticket sales revenue is transferred to your nominated bank account after your event has concluded.

Why Verification Is Required

As Sticky Tickets assumes financial responsibility for refunds and chargebacks, additional verification and approval are required before releasing funds early.

Approval Is Not Guaranteed

Each application is assessed individually based on event history, organiser verification, and risk assessment.
