YOU’RE SELLING THE TICKETS.
BUT WHO’S HOLDING THE MONEY?
If the ticket money isn’t in your bank account, can you afford the risk?
When a ticketing supplier collects ticket revenue into its own bank account, your money is sitting with a third party until it is paid across to you. If that supplier gets into financial difficulty, accessing your money can become a serious problem.
In June 2026, Tickets.ie ceased trading. The Irish Times reported that around 34 event organisers were owed approximately €1.4 million in ticket revenue.
For event organisers, it highlighted a question that is too important to ignore:
WHO HOLDS YOUR TICKET MONEY?

The question every organiser should be asking right now is, Who Holds Your Ticket Money?
Because how your ticketing system handles your money matters just as much as how it sells your tickets.
That’s Why RedBox Events is Different
