SocialBuzz payment, ticket, and vendor marketplace terms.

Effective Date: June 2026

1. Platform role

SocialBuzz Events is a technology platform that provides discovery, profile, ticketing, vendor marketplace, reservation, and payment tools. SocialBuzz Events is not the organizer, promoter, venue, vendor host, tournament operator, sponsor, performer, instructor, contractor, merchant of record, or operator of user-created events, opportunities, reservations, ticket sales, vendor spots, tournaments, classes, or related transactions.

All event operations, vendor opportunities, ticketed events, tournaments, reservations, classes, sponsorships, and related offerings are created, controlled, managed, and fulfilled by the responsible venue, vendor host, event host, tournament host, organizer, business, or user who creates the listing.

2. Organizer, venue, vendor host, and event host responsibility

Any user or business that creates a ticketed event, vendor opportunity, paid listing, reservation, sponsorship, tournament entry, class, or other payment-enabled offering is solely responsible for that offering.

• Event accuracy, pricing, dates, times, venue details, and capacity
• Vendor spot availability, setup details, and space assignment
• Event operation, staffing, safety, security, permits, and compliance
• Vendor communication, attendee communication, and customer support
• Refunds, cancellations, postponements, reschedules, and disputes
• Taxes, reporting, licenses, permits, insurance, and legal obligations
• Chargebacks, payment disputes, and customer complaints

SocialBuzz Events does not guarantee that any event, vendor opportunity, reservation, tournament, class, performance, appearance, sponsorship, or paid listing will occur as advertised or occur at all.

3. Buyer, attendee, vendor, and participant responsibility

Buyers, attendees, vendors, participants, teams, sponsors, and customers are responsible for reviewing all listing details before making a purchase or reservation. This includes event dates, times, location, refund policy, vendor requirements, setup details, age restrictions, rules, pricing, fees, and any instructions provided by the organizer or host.

By purchasing tickets, reserving vendor spots, paying entry fees, buying add-ons, or completing any other marketplace transaction, you agree that the responsible organizer or host controls the event, listing, refund policy, cancellation policy, reschedule policy, and fulfillment of the offering.

4. All sales and refund responsibility

Refund eligibility is determined by the responsible organizer, venue, vendor host, event host, tournament host, business, or other listing creator, subject to applicable law.

SocialBuzz Events is not responsible for funding refunds and is not required to reimburse buyers, attendees, vendors, participants, customers, organizers, hosts, or businesses for refunds owed by another user or business.

If an event is canceled, postponed, rescheduled, moved, modified, underperformed, oversold, closed, delayed, affected by weather, affected by staffing issues, affected by vendor issues, or otherwise changed, the responsible organizer or host is solely responsible for communicating with buyers, attendees, vendors, participants, and customers and for handling any refund obligations.

5. Non-refundable fees

SocialBuzz Events platform fees, service fees, technology fees, transaction fees, payment processing fees, chargeback fees, dispute fees, and other third-party processing costs are non-refundable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

These fees may be retained even when a ticket, vendor spot, tournament entry, reservation, sponsorship, add-on, booking, or other purchase is refunded, canceled, postponed, rescheduled, or otherwise reversed.

These fees represent technology services provided, payment processing costs incurred, fraud prevention services, compliance support, platform operation costs, customer support tools, marketplace tools, and other services performed at or before the time of purchase.

If a buyer pays $105.75 and the underlying ticket or reservation price is $100.00, an approved refund may return only the refundable portion of the purchase and may exclude SocialBuzz Events fees, payment processing fees, transaction costs, and other non-refundable charges.

6. Canceled, postponed, rescheduled, or moved events

Event dates, times, locations, performers, vendors, schedules, activities, and offerings are subject to change. SocialBuzz Events has no control over cancellations, postponements, reschedules, venue changes, performer changes, vendor changes, weather disruptions, or organizer decisions.

SocialBuzz Events is not liable for travel expenses, lodging expenses, transportation costs, food expenses, lost wages, lost profits, vendor inventory costs, setup costs, equipment costs, marketing costs, or any other expenses incurred in connection with a canceled, postponed, rescheduled, moved, modified, or underperformed event or opportunity.

7. Vendor opportunities and vendor reservations

Vendor hosts are solely responsible for vendor opportunities, including spot availability, event details, setup instructions, check-in procedures, space assignment, vendor rules, required permits, event cancellations, weather decisions, refunds, and vendor communication.

Vendors are responsible for reviewing all opportunity details before reserving a spot, including event date, location, setup time, booth requirements, refund terms, permits, licenses, insurance, health department requirements, product restrictions, and host rules.

SocialBuzz Events does not guarantee vendor sales, attendance, foot traffic, profitability, event performance, weather conditions, location quality, vendor exclusivity, or customer turnout.

8. Tickets, add-ons, parking, VIP, and extras

Tickets, parking passes, VIP packages, drink packages, table reservations, merchandise, sponsorships, vendor spots, and other add-ons are controlled by the responsible organizer or host.

SocialBuzz Events is not responsible for fulfillment, delivery, quality, availability, substitution, or performance of any ticket, add-on, parking pass, VIP package, vendor spot, sponsorship, reservation, product, or service created by a user or business.

9. Payment processors and connected accounts

Payments may be processed by third-party payment providers such as Stripe. Users who connect payment accounts or receive payouts are responsible for complying with all payment processor terms, verification requirements, account requirements, prohibited business rules, tax reporting obligations, and dispute procedures.

SocialBuzz Events does not control payout timing, processor holds, account reserves, verification delays, bank delays, chargeback decisions, refund processing timing, or payment processor restrictions.

10. Chargebacks and disputes

Users agree not to abuse chargeback or dispute processes. If a buyer, attendee, vendor, participant, organizer, host, or other user initiates a chargeback or dispute, SocialBuzz Events may provide transaction records, acceptance records, ticket records, QR scan records, order details, refund terms, and platform activity to the payment processor or financial institution.

Organizers, venues, vendor hosts, tournament hosts, and businesses are responsible for chargebacks, disputes, refunds, and related costs arising from their events, listings, vendor opportunities, tickets, reservations, or paid offerings.

11. Right to restrict or remove listings

SocialBuzz Events reserves the right to restrict, remove, pause, disable, investigate, hold, review, archive, or terminate listings, tickets, vendor opportunities, payouts, accounts, or payment-related features at any time if fraud, abuse, chargeback risk, policy violations, suspicious activity, legal concerns, safety concerns, or platform risk is suspected.

12. No insurance or guarantee

These terms do not create insurance, a performance guarantee, a refund guarantee, or a promise that SocialBuzz Events will cover losses caused by any organizer, venue, vendor host, tournament host, entertainer, vendor, attendee, buyer, participant, or other user.

SocialBuzz Events is not responsible for guaranteeing the performance, attendance, profitability, quality, safety, legality, or completion of any event, opportunity, booking, vendor reservation, ticket sale, tournament, class, sponsorship, or paid offering.

13. Acceptance of these terms

By creating tickets, creating vendor opportunities, selling paid offerings, purchasing tickets, reserving vendor spots, entering tournaments, buying add-ons, or completing any marketplace transaction on SocialBuzz Events, you acknowledge and agree to these Ticket & Vendor Terms, the SocialBuzz Events Terms of Service, and any applicable organizer or host refund policy.
