These Sellers Terms of Service, together with any Ticketing Agreement entered into between Leap Event Technology and the Seller (if applicable), are collectively referred to as the ‘Agreement’.

Capitalised terms, not otherwise defined herein (in clause 29), shall have the meaning attributed thereto in the Ticketing Agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, no part of the Ticket price shall constitute a donation and Leap Event Technology is not responsible for any donation amounts received by it in relation to the Event;

(e) Waiver:
- Leap Event Technology recommends that the Seller use the waiver functionality for its Event to clearly disclose to Customers that booking fees are non-refundable in the event of cancellation or postponement. Regardless of whether the Event is cancelled or postponed, the Seller remains liable for all applicable Leap Event Technology fees (including booking fees). Where the Seller has utilised the waiver functionality to make a non-refundable booking fee disclosure to Customers at the time of purchase, the Seller may offset its liability for such fees by retaining the booking fees from amounts refunded to Customers. If the Seller does not utilise the waiver functionality, the Seller will remain fully liable to Leap Event Technology for all applicable fees, including in circumstances where Customer refunds are required.
5. Leap Event Technology Hardware and Software
(a) At all times, the Leap Event Technology Hardware and Software remains the sole property of Leap Event Technology. At the end of the Event, Leap Event Technology may remove the Leap Event Technology Hardware and Software in accordance with clause 14.
(b) The Seller must ensure that:
- The Leap Event Technology Hardware and Software is only used for the sale, validation, or other authorised processing of Tickets for the Event using the System, and for no other purpose;

- For any event where Leap Event Technology Hardware is deployed (including but not limited to scanners and Box Office equipment), the Seller will provide a designated and secure storage location and work areas for Leap Event Technology staff. Such areas must be close to the gates, accessible during bump-in and available at least one (1) hour before gate opening, and supplied with power and internet access. The Seller must also provide, where applicable, adequate and safe fittings, lighting, furnishings (including counter and seats), sheltered enclosures, and air-conditioning where necessary for staff comfort and safe operation of equipment. These requirements apply unless otherwise agreed in writing with Leap Event Technology no later than thirty (30) days prior to the Event.
(c) If any part of the Leap Event Technology Hardware and Software is damaged (other than by Leap Event Technology or its Personnel or through fair wear and tear or any latent defect), the Seller must pay to Leap Event Technology the cost of restoring or replacing the Leap Event Technology Hardware and Software to at least the same condition as it was before the damage occurred. The Seller must apply any money received under any insurance or from any third party in connection with such damage in satisfying its obligations under this clause.
6. Payments
(a) Processing: Payments relating to the Service are processed via one of the following options to be agreed between Leap Event Technology and the Seller:
- The Leap Event Technology payment processing gateway (“Leap Event Technology Gateway”); or
- A third party merchant account (“Third Party Merchant Account”) (such as Stripe, Paypal, Payflow), which will require a direct debit arrangement to be established between the Seller and Leap Event Technology;
(b) Third Party Merchant Accounts: If the Seller elects to use a Third Party Merchant Account as its payment option, it should familiarise itself with the applicable terms of use governing that service.
7. Fees, Charges and Settlement
By default, Leap Event Technology will charge Customers a “booking fee” that covers the “Leap Event Technology System Fee” charged by Leap Event Technology to the Seller under its Ticketing Agreement. Subject to the term below, Leap Event Technology at Seller’s request can add additional charges or a reduced fee which will be added or deducted from ticket receipts accordingly.
Payment processing fees: Except with the prior written consent from Leap Event Technology, Seller must not, and must not attempt to, charge Customers any additional fee or any surcharge on credit or debit card payments for Tickets. If the Seller breaches this clause, Leap Event Technology may at its election suspend or permanently remove the relevant Event for which those fees or surcharges are being charged from the Leap Event Technology System.
Settlement: Subject to clauses 7 and 8, on the Settlement Days in respect of the Event, Leap Event Technology must pay to the Seller the proceeds of Tickets to the Event sold through the System and received by Leap Event Technology less any amount Leap Event Technology is entitled to deduct under clause 7.
Additional Fees: Where applicable, Leap Event Technology will charge the Seller the Fees set out in Leap Event Technology’s fee schedule in the Ticketing Agreement as amended from time to time. These amounts relate to optional services which the Seller may elect to utilise, for example, printing of hard tickets for the Event.
Payment of Ticket proceeds: The Seller has two options in relation to payment of the Ticket proceeds for the Event:
- Leap Event Technology Gateway: If the Seller elects to use the Leap Event Technology Gateway for payment processing, subject to clauses 7 and 8, on the Settlement Day, Leap Event Technology must pay into the Seller’s nominated account the proceeds of Tickets to the Event(s) sold through the Leap Event Technology System and received by Leap Event Technology less any amount Leap Event Technology is entitled to deduct under clause 7.
- Third Party Merchant Account: If Leap Event Technology provides consent to the Seller to use a Third Party Merchant Account for payment processing, it will be responsible for collecting all proceeds from the sales via the Leap Event Technology System and Leap Event Technology will deduct its Fees and any other amounts payable by the Seller to Leap Event Technology under this Agreement or otherwise in accordance with the direct debit Agreement in place between the Seller and Leap Event Technology.
Deduction of Amounts Owing: The Seller irrevocably authorises Leap Event Technology to deduct from amounts payable by it to the Seller under this clause 7 or otherwise, and to apply to its own account, in and towards satisfaction of all Charges in respect of the Event and any other amounts which are or may become due by the Seller to Leap Event Technology.
Payment by Seller of Other Amounts Owing: The Seller must pay to Leap Event Technology all Charges and other amounts owing under this Agreement but not deducted under clause 7 within seven (7) days after Leap Event Technology issues an invoice to the Seller in respect of the amount due.
Chargebacks: Seller is responsible for any Chargebacks that Leap Event Technology receives from its merchant bank in connection with Seller’s Events. Leap Event Technology reserves the right to deduct Chargebacks from settlements or to charge the Chargebacks to Seller’s bank account. For purposes of this Agreement, “Chargebacks” shall mean the amounts that the merchant bank is charged back by a cardholder or a card issuer under the card organisation’s rules (e.g., cardholder dispute, fraud, declined transaction, returned tickets for cancelled events, etc.). Leap Event Technology will charge Seller a GBP£20 fee per lost Chargeback to cover associated card fees. In the case where Seller is responsible for payment processing using Seller’s own merchant account, Seller has sole responsibility for any Chargeback(s) it may receive. In order to mitigate potential Chargebacks, Leap Event Technology may offer optional ticket protection to Customers at time of purchase.
- In the event of cancelled or rescheduled Events, chargebacks, disputed transactions or any other circumstances that may pose significant exposure, risk, or liability to Leap Event Technology, Leap Event Technology reserves the right to hold any amount of Settlement funds for a period of ninety (90) days. If Settlements are insufficient, Seller shall provide Leap Event Technology sufficient funds to make refunds immediately upon notice thereof. Failure to comply with clause 7 shall entitle Leap Event Technology to enforce default interest and contract default fees in accordance with clause 7.
- The Seller authorises Leap Event Technology to direct debit the nominated settlement account for up to ninety (90) days for any chargebacks or disputes received by Leap Event Technology in relation to Seller’s Events.
Third Party claims against Leap Event Technology: If, in Leap Event Technology’s reasonable opinion, it is likely that a Claim by a party other than the Seller will be made against it arising from the Event (including any cancellation of the Event):
- Leap Event Technology will consult in good faith with the Seller prior to taking any further action including, where appropriate, consultation at a CEO-level;
- The Seller authorises Leap Event Technology to retain a reasonable proportion of the Ticket proceeds (such proportion to be determined by the parties acting reasonably);
- If the Claim is settled or resolved by final determination of a court Leap Event Technology may apply those monies in full or partial satisfaction of any liability which the Seller has to Leap Event Technology in respect of the Event;
- If it is determined finally by a court that the Seller has no liability either to Leap Event Technology or to the purchaser of any Tickets, Leap Event Technology will release to the Seller the Ticket proceeds which it retained pursuant to clause 7.
Title in Ticket Proceeds: Property in all proceeds from the sale of all Tickets sold via Leap Event Technology Merchant vests legally in Leap Event Technology at the time of purchase. Leap Event Technology holds all monies payable to the Seller from the proceeds of the sale of Tickets on trust at all times for the Seller. Where the Seller uses a Third Party Merchant Account, all Ticket proceeds must be held by the Seller in a separate trust account for the benefit of Customers until the Event has taken place. These funds remain the property of the Customer until the Event is held and must be preserved to ensure refunds can be made, if required.
Default and Consequences of Default: Interest on overdue invoices shall accrue daily from the date when payment becomes due, until the date of payment, at a rate of two and a half percent (2.5%) per calendar month (and at Leap Event Technology’s sole discretion such interest shall compound monthly at such a rate) after as well as before any judgment.
- If the Seller owes Leap Event Technology any money the Seller shall indemnify Leap Event Technology from and against all costs and disbursements incurred by Leap Event Technology in recovering the debt (including but not limited to internal administration fees, legal costs on a solicitor and own client basis, Leap Event Technology’s contract default fees, and bank dishonour fees).
- Without prejudice to any other remedies Leap Event Technology may have, if at any time the Seller is in breach of any obligation (including those relating to payment) under these terms and conditions Leap Event Technology may suspend or terminate the supply of Leap Event Technology Services to the Seller. Leap Event Technology will not be liable to the Seller for any loss or damage the Seller suffers because Leap Event Technology has exercised its rights under this clause.
Manner and Currency of Payments: All amounts payable under this Agreement must be paid by electronic transfer, direct debit, or such other payment method as agreed in writing with Leap Event Technology, in the currency specified on the applicable invoice (being pounds sterling (GBP) or euros (EUR), as applicable). Leap Event Technology is not obliged to accept any other currency in respect of Ticket sales.
Fee Transparency Requirement: Sellers using the Leap Event Technology System may apply order-level fees to their Events. However, Sellers are required to disclose these fees at the first checkout page using the ‘Fee Disclosure Message’ setting. This ensures Customers are fully informed of any additional charges before completing their purchase.
Seller Responsibility & Compliance: Sellers are solely responsible for ensuring all fees, including order-level fees, are clearly disclosed to Customers in compliance with applicable consumer protection laws and regulatory requirements, including the EU Consumer Rights Directive 2011/83/EU and the UK Consumer Rights Act 2015.Leap Event Technology assumes no liability for any disputes, chargebacks, or legal consequences arising from undisclosed or improperly disclosed fees. Failure to disclose order-level fees properly may result in corrective action, including but not limited to:
- Temporary or permanent removal of the ability to apply order-level fees.
- Adjustments to platform permissions.
- Further actions as deemed necessary to maintain compliance and transparency.
Dispute & Chargeback Liability: In cases where a Customer files a dispute or chargeback due to undisclosed fees, the Seller is solely responsible for any resulting financial liability, including but not limited to refunding the Customer, chargeback fees, and any other penalties incurred. By using the Leap Event Technology System and applying order-level fees, Sellers acknowledge and agree to these terms and accept full responsibility for ensuring compliance with all fee disclosure obligations.
Additional Features: Leap Event Technology may add new additional features and functionality from time-to-time. The use of these new features may incur additional fees and/or modification to the existing fee structure outlined in the Ticketing Agreement. All new fees or modification of existing fees that relate to the use of additional features and functionality will be presented to Seller and require Seller’s online electronic acceptance and/or an additional written consent \(which may be via email) prior to activation.
8. Cancellation of Events & Refunds
Cancellation: If the Event or part of a series of performances comprising the Event is cancelled, postponed or significantly relocated/rescheduled, the Seller must notify Leap Event Technology immediately to prevent the further sale or issue of Tickets for the impacted Event.
Leap Event Technology recommends that the Seller familiarise themselves with Leap Event Technology’s event cancellation policy and ‘Event Cancellation’ information sheet, a copy of which can be accessed here.
Refunds: Unless otherwise set out in this Agreement, the Seller is responsible for refunding Customers in accordance with all applicable laws, industry codes, the Leap Event Technology terms and conditions of sale and any other lawful terms and conditions of sale notified to Customers by the Seller during the purchase process. Leap Event Technology will not be responsible or liable for any refunds, errors in issuing refunds or lack of refunds by the Seller.
Leap Event Technology will only be responsible for refunding Customers who purchased their Tickets via the System in the limited circumstance where payments have been processed by the Leap Event Technology Gateway. After settlement of Ticket proceeds has occurred, Seller shall provide Leap Event Technology sufficient funds to make refunds immediately upon notice thereof. Failure to comply with clause 8 shall entitle Leap Event Technology to enforce default interest and contract default fees in accordance with clause 7.
Immediately upon Seller notifying Leap Event Technology of an Event cancellation, Leap Event Technology has the right to debit Seller’s bank account(s) for the balance of the total amount of all refunds due and any other amounts owed to any and all Customers, minus any settlement payments (if any) due and owing to Seller at that time. Seller may authorise Leap Event Technology to issue refunds for any other reason, at Seller’s own discretion, and in such event, Leap Event Technology may deduct the amounts of such refunds from any settlements. If settlements are insufficient, Seller shall promptly provide Leap Event Technology sufficient funds to make refunds. Seller agrees that Leap Event Technology shall be entitled to retain relevant fees as detailed in the Ticketing Agreement with respect to the initial sale of the refunded tickets.
Cancellation Fee: The Seller agrees to pay Leap Event Technology in respect of the cancellation of the Event the Cancellation Fee which Leap Event Technology shall be entitled to retain in all circumstances.
Notification:
- Leap Event Technology will notify purchasers of Tickets of any cancellations or postponements of the Event via email at its cost. If a valid email address is not provided by purchasers of Tickets, Leap Event Technology will bear no responsibility to notify such purchasers of a cancellation or postponement of the Event.
- Where refund rights apply under applicable laws, Leap Event Technology will prepare and manage the appropriate refund request form to be distributed to affected Customers together with the cancellation or postponement notice. Leap Event Technology will also assist with processing bulk refunds via the Leap Event Technology system where applicable.
- The Seller remains solely responsible for ensuring sufficient funds are available to cover all refunds due to Customers (where Seller is using a third-party merchant facility).
- All refunds must be processed and issued through the Leap Event Technology system. Refunds must not be processed outside of the Leap Event Technology system unless otherwise agreed in writing by Leap Event Technology.
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Leap Event Technology’s fees remain payable in full for any Event that is cancelled, postponed, or materially changed for any reason (including, without limitation, government restrictions, force majeure events, operational issues, or changes in event planning). Leap Event Technology shall not be liable to waive or refund any fees already incurred or charged in respect of such Events.

Nothing in this Agreement excludes, restricts, or modifies any right or remedy, or any guarantee, warranty, or other term or condition implied or imposed by any legislation which cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. This may include the UK Consumer Rights Act 2015 and, where applicable, the EU Consumer Rights Directive and related consumer protection legislation, which contain rights and guarantees that protect purchasers of goods and services in certain circumstances.
If any guarantee, condition, term, or warranty is implied or imposed in relation to this Agreement by applicable law (including the UK Consumer Rights Act 2015 and/or EU consumer protection law) and cannot be excluded, restricted, or modified (“Non-Excludable Provision”), and Leap Event Technology is able to limit the Seller’s remedy for a breach of the Non-Excludable Provision, then Leap Event Technology’s liability for breach of the Non-Excludable Provision is limited to one or more of the following at Leap Event Technology’s option:

The limitation in this clause and the relevant exclusion does not apply in relation to liability:
- for personal injury (including sickness or death);

- for fraud, dishonesty or willful misconduct.
Subject to Leap Event Technology’s obligations under the Non-Excludable Provisions, Leap Event Technology’s liability for Consequential Loss is excluded.
For the purposes of this clause 11, “Consequential Loss” means any special, indirect, consequential or punitive loss or damage, including claims for loss of income, loss of opportunity or profits, loss of goodwill, or business interruption, for any matter arising from or relating to this Agreement, the Site, the Leap Event Technology System or the Leap Event Technology Services, or the internet generally, including, but not limited to: (a) Seller’s use or inability to use the Leap Event Technology System or Site; (b) any changes to or inaccessibility of the Leap Event Technology System or Site; (c) any delay, failure, unauthorised access to, or alteration of, any transmission or data; (d) any material or data transmitted or received or not transmitted or received; and (e) any data or material from a third person accessed on or through the Leap Event Technology System or site, whether such liability is asserted on the basis of contract, tort or otherwise.
For clarity, this does not include loss or damage which may fairly and reasonably be considered to arise naturally from the usual course of things, from the breach or other act or omission in question (the remedy for which loss or damage is limited as described in clause 11).
To the extent permitted by law, Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy will be limited to the total fees and charges paid by Seller to Leap Event Technology in the twelve (12) month period preceding the event giving rise to the claim and will not exceed that amount. This limitation will apply even if Seller has been advised of the possibility of such damages and regardless of whether any remedy fails of its essential purpose. Leap Event Technology and Seller acknowledge that the fees reflect this allocation of risk. The foregoing limitations shall not apply to damages arising out of Leap Event Technology’s willful misconduct or fraudulent action.

- this Agreement in no way restricts, and the Seller agrees not to interfere with, Leap Event Technology’s other business dealings; and
- Leap Event Technology is not obliged to disclose to it the confidential information of another Seller.
The Seller acknowledges that this Agreement is an arms-length commercial contract which sets out in full Leap Event Technology’s duties and obligations as agent. The Seller irrevocably and unconditionally releases Leap Event Technology from any further duties or obligations which may be implied at law. This Agreement does not create a fiduciary relationship or a relationship of employment or Sellership between the parties or an agency in which Leap Event Technology is the principal.
20. Obligation to act in good faith
Leap Event Technology and Seller must act in good faith in respect of this Agreement. Neither Leap Event Technology nor the Seller may do anything which will circumvent the operation of this Agreement or deprive either Leap Event Technology or the Seller of its rights under this Agreement.
21. Privacy and Customer Data
By entering into this Agreement, the Seller agrees to the terms of Leap Event Technology’s Privacy Policy. Leap Event Technology may collect and use the personal information of Customers of Tickets or who otherwise interacted with the Leap Event Technology Services (“Customer Data”) in accordance with its Privacy Policy in place from time to time.

23. Dispute Resolution
The parties will attempt to settle any claim or controversy arising out of this Agreement through consultation and negotiation in good faith in a spirit of mutual cooperation. If those attempts fail, then the dispute may be mediated by a mutually accepted mediator to be chosen by the parties within forty-five (45) days after written notice by either party to the other demanding mediation. No party may unreasonably withhold consent to the selection of a mediator. The parties will share the cost of the mediation equally. By mutual agreement, the parties may postpone mediation until some specified but limited discovery about the dispute has been completed.
