When a Buyer accepts your offer by purchasing your Ticket through our Site, you are contractually bound to deliver that exact Ticket for Sales Price and within the required delivery timeframe.

StubHub International will not, for any reason, provide compensation for tickets that do not sell, even if it is due to Site unavailability from an outage or maintenance or listing delays.
7.5. The Seller shall be the one to determine the selling price of each Ticket. However, in some countries maximum price restrictions may apply to the offer, depending on the location of the event. Therefore, SHI is not responsible for Seller’s compliance with any legal restrictions placed on the sale of the Ticket, whether in the Seller’s home city or country or any applicable Laws.
8. Taxes

Any applicable taxes must be included in the Sales Price of your Ticket. You agree to provide StubHub International any tax identification number if necessary for StubHub International to provide (without notice to You) information to the relevant tax authorities related to payments you receive from us and further authorize SHI to release that information to the relevant tax authorities. The Service Fees include any applicable sales, use, excise, value added, service and other indirect taxes.
9. Buying Tickets
9.1. You are responsible for reading the complete listing before making a commitment to buy Tickets. When placing an order, you are entering into a binding contract with the Seller to purchase those Tickets. Additional terms communicated to you by the Seller may apply. Payment is remitted to StubHub International and disbursed to the seller according to our Payment Services Agreement for Sellers or the User Agreement. All Orders are final. You cannot change or cancel any orders after the sale is confirmed.
9.2. StubHub International Marketplace features a large volume of listed tickets and StubHub International takes significant measures to prevent pricing errors. However, in the rare event of a pricing error, StubHub International cannot be held liable for the error. In such cases, if a ticket is affected by a pricing error, StubHub International reserves the right to offer the tickets to you at the corrected price. If you find the corrected price unacceptable, you have the option to cancel your order.
9.3. StubHub International reserves the right to change the delivery method, at its sole discretion. Tickets can be delivered up to the event start time indicated on the tickets. In the event that the delivery method undergoes a change prior to delivery, StubHub International will not charge any additional delivery fees to the buyer. However, despite our commitment to delivering the tickets as soon as possible, there may be external factors beyond our control or the seller's control that could prevent orders from being delivered in a timely manner.
9.4. Upon placing your order, you (i) acknowledge that sales are subject to our final sale terms, including the refund, postponement and cancellation policies as stated throughout these terms; (ii) you acknowledge that StubHub International does not offer “buyer’s remorse” refunds; and (iii) you authorize StubHub International to charge your method of payment for the total amount, which includes the ticket price, service and delivery fees, and any applicable taxes.
By accepting these conditions, you are acknowledging and agreeing not to engage in any actions aimed at evading, avoiding, or bypassing the limitations placed on your right to receive a full or partial refund as specified in these terms. Furthermore, you agree not to initiate a "chargeback" with your payment card issuer for valid charges, meaning that if our decision to deny a refund or credit for a ticket purchase is in accordance with the sale terms provided, or in any other case, you will refrain from seeking a chargeback directly from your payment card issuer.
In the event that you dispute a charge with the card issuer and it is determined that the charge in question is valid and not the result of credit card or payment fraud, StubHub International retains the following rights:
(i) The company has the right to pursue payment, along with any applicable fees, through legal means as necessary, which may include employing collection agencies and initiating legal proceedings.
(ii) StubHub International reserves the right to decline pending and future ticket purchases made using credit card accounts or online accounts associated with previous chargebacks. Moreover, the company may prohibit individuals named on the credit card accounts, those who access related online accounts or credit cards, or anyone who breaches this provision from making future purchases.
10. Payments
10.1. Payments received from Buyers for Tickets purchased via the Site are processed by StubHub International on behalf of the Seller and credited to the Seller in accordance with the Seller Policies and Payment Services Agreement (as applicable). Without prejudice or limitation to the Payment Services Agreement, Seller appoints the relevant SHI entity as its limited payment collection agent solely for the purpose of accepting funds from Buyers on behalf of Seller. Seller agrees that any payment made by Buyer to StubHub International shall be considered the same as a payment made directly to Seller, and Seller will make the Tickets available to Buyer in the agreed-upon manner as if Seller had received the payment directly from Buyer. Except as otherwise specified in the FanProtect Guarantee, Seller understands that StubHub’s International obligation to pay Seller is subject to and conditional upon successful receipt of the associated payments from Buyer. In accepting appointment as the limited payment collection agent of the seller, StubHub International assumes no liability for any acts or omissions of the Seller.
10.2. Payments from Buyers are due and payable immediately. A Buyer can pay the full order amount which includes any applicable Service Fees and taxes using one of the accepted payment methods.

11. Event Cancellations, Postponement and Other Event Changes
11.1. Cancellation: If an event is cancelled and not rescheduled, we will remove the event and any listings related to the event from our Site and inform both Buyer and Seller about the cancellation with further instructions. If the Seller requires his Ticket(s) back to obtain a refund of the original purchase price from the promoter or organizer, he must contact Customer Service immediately after the cancellation. The Buyer is required to retain the Ticket(s) and upon request from StubHub International to send them back to either the Seller or to StubHub International (as instructed by SHI). The Buyer will receive a full refund or credit for use on a future purchase, as determined in SHI’s sole discretion (unless a refund is required by law) once he has sent back the Ticket(s) (if applicable) and the Seller will not be paid. If the Seller has already been paid, the payment for the sale may be recovered by charging the Seller's Payment Method or by setting off this amount against pending payments for other Tickets the Seller has sold or will sell in the future.
11.2. Postponement: If an event is postponed, StubHub International will work with Buyers and Sellers on a case-by-case basis attempting to resolve any Ticket issues. Sellers are prohibited from reselling, invalidating or changing Tickets for postponed events. Refunds will not be issued for postponed events, unless they are ultimately canceled as stated above.

Seller Policies
1. Some Of The Things You're Not Allowed To List
Here's a list of ticket types or ticket items that you're not allowed to list for sale on StubHub International.
- Listings without event access (Non-event ticket items) - You may only list non-event ticket items as an add-on to your event ticket listings or as otherwise approved by StubHub International. The most common forms of non-event items include:
- Pit passes
- Club passes
- Party passes
- Parking passes (may only be sold on their own as part of a "PARKING ONLY" event listing created by StubHub International).
- Tickets for non-consecutive seats - All of the seats in your listing must be together (consecutive), unless they are piggyback seats (see below).
- “Piggyback seats” - If you’re listing "piggyback" seats, you must select the "Piggyback" check box when listing your tickets for sale. To list piggyback seats, your seats must
- Be directly behind one another (not staggered or off to the side)
- Be in 2 consecutive rows, and
- Have the same number of seats in each row
- Speculative tickets - You must only list tickets that you already have in your possession (‘In Hand’) or that have been allocated to you. Speculative tickets or ‘spec tickets’ are tickets that are listed for sale or sold before the seller actually owns the tickets or before the tickets have been allocated to the seller. Listing or selling speculative tickets on StubHub International is not allowed and may result in account suspension, fees, charges or other consequences. Sellers who regularly list tickets that are not in their possession and who are known to have listed speculative tickets in the past, may be required to provide an earlier In Hand Date than is normally required (for In Hand Date, see Section 2 below).
- Stolen property - We probably don't need to tell you this, but selling stolen tickets or other stolen items on StubHub International is against the rules and violates various laws.
2. Rules for Listing Tickets
Providing accurate and complete information about your tickets during the listing process is one of the keys to becoming a successful seller and is a requirement to list on the Site. If you do not follow all of the requirements in this section when listing your tickets, your listings may not appear on the Site, your sale may be cancelled, you may not get paid, you may incur fees (associated with us finding replacement tickets for, or refunding, the buyer and/or a fixed admin fee), or you may be subject to other consequences specified in these Seller Policies and Clause 19 of the User Agreement.
2.1. Accurately tell us when you'll be able to send the tickets to buyers (if your tickets aren't In Hand)
For tickets to events located in the US or CANADA (unless otherwise specifically noted)
It's OK to list tickets you own but don't have in your possession yet ('Not In Hand') as long as you're absolutely certain you will have them on the date you give us when listing the tickets (the 'In-Hand Date'). The In-Hand Date you select is the beginning of your shipping window to complete the sale. We'll show buyers a delivery estimate based on your In-Hand Date which sets their expectations of when they'll receive the tickets they purchased, so be accurate. If you're not sure when you will have the tickets in your possession, hold off on listing the tickets or select the latest date available on the calendar. If your tickets haven't sold and the In-Hand Date changes, you may change the In-Hand Date without incurring fees. If your tickets have sold and the In-Hand Date changes, you may incur additional fees.
It’s OK to list tickets you own but don't have in your possession yet ('Not In Hand') as long as you're absolutely certain you will have them within 3 days to the event (In Hand). The In Hand Date is the beginning of your shipping window to complete the sale to ensure buyers receive the tickets in time for the event. We'll show buyers a delivery estimate of one day prior to the event. If you're not sure when you will have the tickets in your possession, hold off on listing the tickets.
2.2. Select the right delivery method for your ticket type
StubHub International will show you the delivery methods available for the event during the listing process. Not all delivery methods are available for all events and the available delivery methods can change over time depending on the remaining time left for the events. The delivery method determines the last available date to send tickets that are Not In Hand and the date and time the listing will expire (i.e., no longer be visible to buyers). This allows you adequate time to get tickets to buyers before the event.
For all other events, when you start listing your tickets on the 'Enter your ticket details' page, you'll select a delivery method based on the type of tickets you have - electronic tickets (e-tickets), paper printouts, or traditional 'hard' tickets (such as tickets printed on card stock) and mobile tickets. Once your tickets sell, you can't change the delivery method and you must deliver the tickets using the delivery method you selected.
Important: If you have 'hard' tickets, you must select the shipping option (such as UPS or the relevant third-party carrier). You must not select electronic delivery, as traditional 'hard' tickets cannot be delivered electronically. And you cannot scan, copy, or photograph them to convert them into PDF files. Please note that in these cases StubHub International will consider the order as dropped and therefore is subject to be cancelled at any time (See point 3.3)
For Instant Download
Instant Download: If you have e-tickets that are in your possession (In Hand), using Instant Download has the following benefits:
- We'll highlight your listings as being ready for Instant Download (which is the delivery method buyers prefer)
- Your tickets can stay listed longer
With Instant Download, you'll 'pre-deliver' your tickets when you list them for sale, instead of waiting to receive a buyer's order to deliver them. That way, within minutes of their sale the tickets are delivered to the buyer. If you choose to list your tickets using Instant Download, you have agreed to list them for sale exclusively on StubHub International.
2.3. Enter accurate ticket info
When you list your tickets on StubHub International, you are responsible for providing full and accurate information about your tickets. Depending on the location of the event, this may include all or part of the following: the name of the event, date, section, row, seat and any other required ticket information. Where required, we may remove any listings, cancel any sales or take other actions if listings are vague, confusing, inaccurate or misleading about section, row and seat information.
2.4. Listing by zones
For some events, we divide sections of the venue into zones and allow you to list tickets by zone. In the case of zone listings, you aren’t required to know the exact seat locations for your tickets. But to list tickets by zone, you must be absolutely certain that you’ll be able to deliver tickets in that zone.
2.5. Select any required disclosures
You are responsible for noting any important required disclosures about your tickets, including:
- Limited or obstructed view
- Possible obstruction
- Wheelchair seating
- Wheelchair only
- Wheelchair accessible
- Alcohol-free section
- Behind stage (possible obstruction)
- Side stage (possible obstruction)
- 21 and over event
2.6. Select accurate ticket features and comments
If you have an aisle seat ticket, have a parking pass to include with the tickets you're selling, or want to highlight any other details about your tickets, select the appropriate check box on the 'Enter your ticket details' page when you're listing your tickets. Be sure to list exactly what you will deliver to the buyer and select only comments that accurately describe your tickets.
Don't see a comment you're looking for?
- For events located in all other countries, please contact Customer Service.
Please keep in mind that the comments should be about specific ticket features and disclosures, not subjective comments like 'Best value' and 'Great view' of the stage
2.7. List valid tickets
Only list tickets that you know are valid. It's your responsibility to make sure the tickets you list for sale on StubHub International are valid. If you deliver incorrect, misrepresented, invalid, fraudulent or counterfeit tickets for any sale or portion of a sale you , you may incur additional fees or you may be subject to other consequences as set out in these Seller Policies and Clause 19 of the User Agreement.
2.8. Comply with applicable law
When setting the sale price of your tickets, it is your responsibility to comply with all applicable laws, statutes, and regulations.
2.9. Manage your listings and sales closely
You are free to modify or delete your listing at any time before a sale is completed between you and the buyer. But keep in mind that by listing a ticket for sale on StubHub International, you are making a binding offer to sell that ticket to a buyer who purchases the ticket for the price you have specified. When a buyer accepts your offer by purchasing your ticket, you are contractually bound to supply that exact ticket for the specified price and within the required delivery timeframe.
If you choose to list your tickets on StubHub International and on other sites and you end up selling your tickets somewhere else or no longer have them in your possession, delete them from StubHub International immediately. If your ticket sells on StubHub International although it has sold somewhere else and you are not able to complete the sale, you will be subject to the consequences described in Section 3.3.
If you upload electronic tickets for sale and then remove the listing, StubHub International is not responsible if you are unable to use those tickets due to technical or other reasons.
2.10. No guarantee
StubHub International does not guarantee that your tickets or related passes will sell or that your listing will appear on the Site within a certain time after it is posted or in a particular order on the event page or through search results. StubHub International will not, for any reason, provide compensation for tickets that do not sell, even if it is due to Site unavailability from an outage or maintenance or listing delays.
3. Rules for Getting Tickets to Buyers
3.1. Completing your sales
When your tickets sell, your sale is not complete until the buyer receives the tickets from you. Completing a sale means following all of the steps to deliver the tickets you sold, on time and as promised in your listing.
As soon as your tickets sell, we'll send you an email with a deadline to complete your sale, i.e. the date by which the buyer must receive the tickets. The deadline to complete your sale is based on whether you told us your tickets were in your possession (“In Hand”) or not (“Not In hand”) - and if not, the date you identified as your In Hand Date.
3.2. Deliver your tickets on time and as promised
When sellers deliver tickets late, worried buyers contact us wondering why they haven't received their tickets yet, when they should be looking forward to going to their event. And when a buyer gets tickets that don't match the information in the listing, we may need to take various remedial actions for that buyer including finding replacement tickets, providing refunds, etc. So if any of the information in your listing doesn't exactly match the actual tickets you deliver to the buyer or if you don't complete your sale on time, we may cancel your sale, you may not get paid, you may incur additional fees or you may be subject to other consequences as set out in these Seller Policies and Clause 19 of the User Agreement. With electronic delivery, you will upload your ticket as a PDF file. To ship hard tickets, you need to use the correct shipping label and follow the directions in the confirmation email. For Mobile Tickets you will send to the buyer and follow directions on the confirmation email. The way to send mobile tickets is normally set by the promoter via an application.
The deadline for completing your sale depends on whether or not your tickets are in hand and how you will deliver your tickets to the buyer. Please refer to the following guideline table to determine when to send your tickets. Your 'Date of Sale' refers to the date you receive the sale notification email.
In hand | Not in hand | |
---|---|---|
UPS Delivery (for orders > 72 hours from event) | Sale Date + 1 business day | In-Hand Date + 1 business day |
Electronic Delivery (for orders > 48 hours from event) | Sale Date + 1 calendar day | In-Hand Date + 1 calendar day |
In any case, the seller must abide by the guidelines set by SHI's Customer Experience department in the event of discrepancies.
StubHub International will show you the delivery methods available for the event during the listing process. Not all delivery methods are available for all events. The delivery method determines the last available date to list tickets that are Not In Hand and the date and time the listing will expire (i.e. no longer be visible to buyers). This allows you adequate time to get tickets to buyers before the event.
For tickets In Hand (whether “hard” tickets or e-tickets), you are required to send the ticket to the buyer within five (5) working days or if the event is less than two (2) weeks away within 24 hours after you have received an order confirmation email from StubHub International using the shipping label provided by StubHub International in accordance with the third party carrier terms. If a shipping label is provided, use it. If not, as seller use a traceable courier company for shipping.
For tickets Not In Hand (hard tickets only), you are required to send a sold ticket to the buyer as soon as you have received it from the promoter or organiser. At the latest, the ticket should be sent to the buyer one (1) week before the event. Tickets must be posted at a post office (or the approved drop-off location of the applicable third party carrier) by no later than the "Post by" date stated on the shipping label. If you do not post your tickets at such location or post them after the “Post by” date stated on the shipping label, the shipment could be lost, delayed or returned. However, if the tickets have not been issued by the organiser or promoter of the event before the above-mentioned deadline, the seller should adhere to the delivery deadline set by StubHub International Customer Service. This ensures that the buyer receives the tickets in a timely manner, even if they are not available by the original deadline.
For tickets Not In Hand (e-tickets only), you must upload your e-tickets as soon as you receive them from the promoter or organiser, preferably no later than one (1) week before the event.
For Mobile Tickets as soon as you receive them from organiser or promoter preferably no later than one (1) week before the event, you must send them to the email address/phone number you have been provided when you received your order confirmation emails, through the application/method set by the promoter.
Regardless of the situation, sellers must abide by SHI's Customer Experience department's guidelines for handling discrepancies.
For Instant Download
Instant download: With Instant Download, you'll upload your tickets when you list them for sale, instead of waiting to receive a sale notification email to deliver them. That way, within minutes of their sale the tickets are delivered to the buyer. As with any other tickets, you can always edit or remove your listing before the tickets sell.
3.3. Reporting an issue and offering replacement tickets; Consequences for Dropped Sales and Invalid Tickets
We know things don't always go as planned. You need to report an issue right away if you:
- can't send the tickets based on your In Hand Date;
- can’t deliver them at all; or
- You need to offer replacement tickets.
You can report an issue by following the “Report an issue” link in the sales notification email or on the 'Open sales' tab in My Account.
What is a “dropped sale”?
A dropped sale means any one of the following:
- You cannot deliver the exact ticket and related passes in time and as specified in your listing
- You don’t have replacement tickets (tickets that StubHub International determines are comparable or better than the ones originally listed) that the buyer accepts.
- The buyer or StubHub rejects your requested change and cancels the order
- Or, for any other reason, you fail to complete your sale.
Remember, reporting an issue to request a change to your sale doesn’t mean it has to be accepted. StubHub International may in its sole discretion cancel the order without further notice or payment to you.
Here are a few things to keep in mind:
- It’s always your responsibility to report an issue immediately, no matter how much time has passed since you received your sale notification email.
- If your tickets sell within 72 hours of the event or you have listed your tickets using Instant Download , you won't be able to report an issue online - but you still need to let us know immediately, so please call us.
- StubHub International monitors the frequency and rate at which you drop sales as compared to your total sales (your 'dropped order rate') and we reserve the right, upon notice to you, to suspend your account if we determine that your dropped order rate has exceeded an acceptable level. Similarly, if you abuse the StubHub International marketplace as determined by StubHub International in its sole discretion including, without limitation, (i) dropping orders at one price and relisting the same tickets for higher prices; (ii) engaging in speculative listings or (iii) other similar abuses of your obligations as a seller, you may be subject to an investigation and any applicable consequences.
For ticketed events
Dropped Sales
If you drop sales or fail to deliver tickets (as defined above) you will be subject to an Administrative Fee and shall be bound by such costs, StubHub International shall notify you accordingly of such fees.
Incorrect Tickets Delivered
If it is determined, following an investigation and confirmation with the buyer, that you have failed to deliver the tickets that correspond precisely to the ones you sold, StubHub International reserves the right to apply the fees and charges outlined below.
Invalid Tickets
If we receive a report that tickets you sold on StubHub International were not valid for entry, we'll investigate to try to determine what caused the issue, and, if necessary, we'll reach out to you to request documentation.
Fees and charges
If you dropped a sale (as defined above) or do not deliver tickets at all or deliver incorrect, misrepresented or invalid tickets (i.e. tickets that are invalid for entry to the venue) or if you make any changes in respect of your ticket listing after your ticket has been sold (i.e. the order has been made by the buyer) resulting in StubHub International incurring additional costs, StubHub International reserves the right to charge you the following additional fees and other charges to cover StubHub International’s costs for resolving the issue, including finding replacement Tickets or issuing a refund to the Buyer:
- StubHub International may charge an administrative fee for the costs incurred by StubHub International when resolving issues caused by any order that is not correctly fulfilled, such administrative fee shall be calculated by reference to the location of the event to which your ticket relates, as follows:
- For all event(s) located in the United Kingdom a charge of £25 (per order);
- For all event(s) located within the European Economic Area or even when they happen in a different country but the event is listed in EUR a charge of €25 Euros (per order);
- For all event(s) in the US, Canada or any other country in the world when the events are listed in USD unless otherwise specifically stated a charge of $25.
- Additionally to the fee stated above, StubHub International reserves the right to recover all associated costs incurred as a result of any unfulfilled orders by the seller, the seller shall be bound by such costs and StubHub International will notify the seller accordingly. StubHub International may charge the higher amount of the following amounts:
- Price Cost Difference: StubHub International may charge a replacement fee which consists of the price of a comparable or better replacement Ticket. The replacement fee can be higher than the original sales price of your Ticket;
- 40% of Seller Payout: StubHub International may deduct a fee of 40% from the total price for which the ticket was sold.
In case incorrect tickets are delivered and the buyer accepts to keep them, the seller shall be bound by all costs incurred to keep the order active, regardless of the ticket´s selling price.
The aforementioned fees will apply except in cases where the venue or organiser/primary ticketer is responsible for the invalid ticket, as long as it is determined by our investigation. If we receive a report that tickets you sold on StubHub International were not valid for entry, we'll investigate to try to determine what caused the issue, and, if necessary, we'll reach out to you to request documentation. We will work with you to determine the resolution.
If you are unable to deliver the ticket at the latest one (1) week before the event, we reserve the right to cancel the sale and you will not be paid for the sale. If you were already paid, the payment for your sale may be recovered by charging your Payment Method or by setting off this amount against pending payments for other tickets you've sold or will sell in the future. In addition, you may be subject to being charged additional fees or other consequences under the User Agreement at Clause 19.
3.4. Cancellation of Sales in Case of Buyer Chargeback/Fraud
In the event that a buyer initiates a chargeback or participates in fraudulent activity, the seller acknowledges and agrees that StubHub International reserves the right to cancel the sale. This decision will be based on the event's location and associated risk and will be made at the sole discretion of StubHub International. It is a condition that any such cancellation must take place at least seven (7) days before the scheduled event and the tickets must not have been delivered to the buyer. Such cancellation will not impose any charges for the seller.
In the event of cancellation, StubHub International will make reasonable efforts to find a new buyer for the tickets. However, StubHub International does not guarantee that a new buyer will be found.
The buyer's chargeback or fraudulent activity may result in non-payment to StubHub International. StubHub International will not be obligated to pay the seller for the affected tickets, as the funds from the buyer are not received and the sale will be considered cancelled.
4. How We Handle Cancelled Events, Play-off Games and Postponed Events
4.1. Cancelled events and play-off games
If you sold tickets to a cancelled event or a play-off game or contingency game that's not played, we'll email you to let you know and you won't be paid for the sale. If you were already paid, we'll recover the payment by charging your Payment Method on file with us or cancelling pending payments (for other tickets you've sold). If you prevent us from recovering a payment, we may suspend your selling permissions or withhold future payments until the amount owed is recovered.
If you need your tickets shipped back to you in order to get a refund of your original purchase, please contact us by using our customer service email address which can be found under the Contact Us tab.
4.2. Postponed events policy
A 'postponed event' is an event where the time or date has changed because it was rescheduled by the team, venue, artist or organiser. We evaluate postponed events on a case-by-case basis to determine the appropriate course of action. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
- If a venue requires new tickets for the rescheduled event to be printed and you have already delivered the original tickets to the buyer, we will notify you on how you need to fulfil the order. If you don't send the tickets for the rescheduled event as requested and the buyer is denied entry to the event, StubHub International may charge you the full amount of the order, costs incurred to satisfy the buyer, and/or you may be subject to other consequences as detailed in Section 3 above (The rules for getting tickets to buyers).
- If an event is postponed and the new event ticket availability is limited and not guaranteed, we will deem the event cancelled and handle this as we do other cancelled events (please see above “Cancelled events and play-off games”).
5. Getting Paid, Paying Taxes and Tips on Avoiding Consequences
5.1. Getting paid for your ticket sale
Payment receipt times will vary depending on the payment method chosen by the seller. We'll also send you an email to let you know the buyer received the tickets and we have begun processing your payment.
For all ticketed events
Payments from buyers are processed by the payout platform that provides services to SHI on behalf of sellers. When your tickets sell, your payment will be released within 5 to 8 business days after the event takes place. Please read the Payment Services Agreement for Sellers on the relevant StubHub International Site for more details. If you haven't received your payment 8 business days after the event takes place, please contact us.
5.2. Paying taxes
StubHub International is not responsible in any way for the accuracy or suitability of any payment of any applicable taxes on your behalf. We do not collect taxes on any sales. As a seller, you are responsible for collecting and remitting any and all applicable international, federal, state, or municipal taxes in connection with ticket sales (including, but not limited to VAT in the UK, TVA in France or MwSt. in Germany).
To comply with the regulations of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS), we are required to request a Tax ID Number (TIN) from sellers to generate Form 1099-k, if applicable.
6. Other Things You're Not Allowed To Do
6.1. Misusing buyer contact information or StubHub International's Site and services
We provide you with the buyer’s contact information so you can ship tickets to them. However, don't use this information to contact the buyer for anything other than delivering the tickets you sold to the buyer and do not tell a buyer that you are affiliated with or a representative of StubHub International.
You are not allowed to use the StubHub International Site or services to:
- contact other StubHub users
- ask other StubHub users to contact you
- buy, sell, or deliver tickets outside of StubHub International
6.2 Don't place additional items in the envelope (like your contact information, promotional materials for your business etc.)
It may be tempting and seem harmless to include materials in the UPS (or other third party carrier, as relevant) envelope when you ship tickets to buyers - but it's against these Seller Policies. Here are examples of promotional or commercial information that you aren't allowed to include in shipments:
- With the exception of StubHub International merchandise or leaflets that we send you for this specific reason, don't place additional items in the envelope (like your contact information, promotional materials, etc.)
- Catalogues
- Business cards or business reply cards
- Bookmarks
- Coupons
- Flyers
- Solicitations
- Other marketing or advertising material
- Sticky notes with your contact information.
7. What Happens When You Break The Rules
When you violate these Seller Policies, you may face consequences, which could include the following (or any combination):
- The fees detailed in Section 3 above (The rules for getting tickets to buyers), including the cost of replacement tickets, reprinting fees, additional delivery costs, administrative fees and refunds to the buyer
- Warnings
- The removal of your listings
- Order cancellation
- Limits to your buying and selling privileges
- Withholding of payments
- Temporary or permanent suspension of your account
- Or any other consequences specified in Clause 19 of the User Agreement

Payment Services Agreement for Sellers
This "Payment Services Agreement" is between you and Hyperwallet (as described herein). Your use of the StubHub International’s marketplace will continue to be governed by the User Agreement applicable to you.
Hyperwallet Terms and Conditions
These Terms and Conditions are effective as of January 1, 2021. See Section 1.2.4 for further information on how changes may be made. By registering your Pay Portal, you agree to abide by these Terms and Conditions.
1. Introduction
1.1. Hyperwallet and You
1.1.1. Hyperwallet is a PayPal service. We provide payment services and related functionality and technology using a global payout platform and network of financial partners to deliver a range of payout solutions to Hyperwallet’s business customers (each a “Payor”) (the “Services”) who desire to make payments to their designated payees, like you (a “Payee”).
1.1.2. Hyperwallet operates and provides the Services through local affiliates, including members of the PayPal group of companies (each an “Affiliate”) around the world. Together with their respective parents, subsidiaries and affiliates, these Affiliates are individually and collectively referred to in these Terms and Conditions as “Hyperwallet”. Affiliates may be registered and licensed in various jurisdictions with relevant regulatory agencies as set forth in the “Licenses and Complaints” section of the website. The Affiliates set out in the Affiliates and Governing Law Schedule also provide Services to Payors.
1.1.3. Hyperwallet has created a technology portal which may be accessed through a website, application programming interface/API, embedded in or integrated with your Payor’s own platform or system, or other method, and may be branded with your Payor’s brand or co-branded with the Hyperwallet brand (the “Pay Portal”). The Pay Portal is the interface that may facilitate certain payments which you will receive from the Payor (the “Payouts” and each, a “Payout”). Payout capabilities are available in multiple currencies and can be implemented using a variety of different methods. You may be able to receive Payouts from and as directed by your Payor through one of several methods, each as determined by your Payor, such as (but not limited to) a transfer to your bank account, load to a prepaid card issued to you by a third-party issuer (“Hyperwallet Card”), load to a closed loop electronic gift card, load to your existing debit card, cheque, cash pickup at collection locations provided by third-party money transfer providers (e.g. Western Union), and other payment methods (each a “Payout Method” and collectively “Payout Methods”)), all as supported and made available from time to time. Some Payout Methods may require access to the Pay Portal. The Payouts may comprise money remittance and/or the issuance of stored value. The Payouts are delivered through the Affiliates, and a network of banks and financial service providers (“Network Partners”). The Payouts are subject to additional terms and conditions as set forth in the Payout Schedule.
1.1.4. Among the Payout Methods, Payees in the EEA or the UK must contract with us directly to use the Payment Processing Services (as defined below) on the Payor’s marketplace platform. Terms applicable to these Payment Processing Services appear in Section 11 of the Payout Schedule.
1.1.5. Fees for Services
1.1.5.1. YOUR USE OF THE PAY PORTAL MAY BE SUBJECT TO FEES, AS DETERMINED BY YOUR PAYOR. THESE FEES MAY INCLUDE RECURRING MONTHLY FEES, YEARLY FEE AND/OR FEES FOR INACTIVITY. To view the schedule of fees applicable to your use of the Pay Portal, please click on “Fees” appearing under “Resources” section of the header menu on the Pay Portal Home Screen. Or, you may click on “Fees” at the bottom of the Home Screen (the “Fee Schedule”). Fees will be charged only where permitted by applicable law.
1.1.5.2. BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, YOU AGREE PAY THE FEES APPEARING IN THE FEE SCHEDULE. You further agree that Hyperwallet may collect the fees automatically from available funds reflected in your Pay Portal, or from the amounts transferred by you through the Payout Methods, as applicable. In addition, you agree third parties facilitating the Payout Methods may impose additional fees on transactions, which may be deducted from available funds reflected in your Pay Portal balance, depending on the type of transaction you conduct. These fees will be displayed to you before completing the transaction. Please review Section 3 for additional terms related to the Fees for Services.
1.1.6. In addition to the Payouts and Pay Portal, Hyperwallet may also originate debit entries directly from your bank account and deliver them to your Payor (“Direct Debits”). Hyperwallet originates Direct Debit entries when instructed by your Payor subject to a written authorization you have granted to your Payor to debit funds from the bank account associated with your Pay Portal. Such authorization must be signed by you, and in a form drafted to meet the requirements imposed under applicable law, including applicable rules of any clearing network through which the Direct Debit entries may be settled. Hyperwallet is reliant on your Payor alone for instructions regarding the amount and frequency of Direct Debit entries. Hyperwallet is not responsible for any losses, fees, or penalties you may incur as a result of processing the Direct Debits from your bank account under a valid and current authorization. Unless applicable law provides for automatic expiry of an authorization, you must communicate your intent to cancel an authorization by sending a written cancellation request to your Payor. In the event that your bank rejects a Direct Debit entry for non-sufficient funds, or in relation to a dispute, Hyperwallet may present the Direct Debit entry again two additional times. Three Direct Debit entries returned for non-sufficient funds by your bank within a 60-day period will void your authorization automatically. To dispute a Direct Debit entry, you must notify the financial institution holding your bank account that you intend to dispute the entry within the 60-day period following the date that your account was debited. Following notification of the dispute with your bank, you should contact Payor to notify them of the dispute.
1.1. 7 Hyperwallet may, at any time and in its sole discretion, delegate the performance of any of the Services, obligations and/or requirements hereunder to any of its Affiliates, agents, suppliers and contractors and Hyperwallet may disclose to any such persons any information required by them to perform the duties so delegated to them pursuant to the Privacy Policy (see the “Privacy” section of the website.
1.2. Why these Terms and Conditions are important to You
1.2.1. The terms “you”, “your” and “Payee” refer to users making use of the Pay Portal to obtain Payouts.

If you do not wish to accept the new or changed Terms and Conditions, you must cease accessing the Pay Portal and discontinue receiving the Payouts.
1.2.5. If there is any conflict between the Schedules and any other parts of the Terms and Conditions, the other parts of the Terms and Conditions will prevail with the exception of Section 11 of the Payout Schedule, which shall take precedence over all other parts of the Schedules and the Terms and Conditions in relation to Payees in the EEA or the UK who are using the Payment Processing Services on the Payor’s marketplace platform.

The fees and currency rate applicable to your transaction will be provided to you in the Pay Portal when you initiate your transaction. You are responsible for all risks associated with receiving a Payout in any currency.
3.9. Additional Optional Services

Such services may include the ability to purchase or incent the purchase of goods and services from your Payor from your Pay Portal (“Spendback” and “Promo”), transfer funds from a Hyperwallet Card to your bank account, the population and production of United States Federal tax forms for domestic and foreign Payees, and such other services and functionality as offered and supported by us from time to time. Hyperwallet may offer, limit, restrict, or terminate any such services without notice to you.
4. Additional Restrictions
Any or all of the Payouts, fees, rates, and the availability and timing of your receipt of any Payout may be affected, limited, delayed or restricted due to a number of factors beyond our control, including but not limited to the funding by your Payor, Payout Method selected, Network Partner requirements, currency availability, regulatory and compliance requirements, country and delivery restrictions, time zone differences, and socio-economic and government factors. Hyperwallet does not guarantee the availability of any Payout Method and makes no representation, warranty or otherwise as to any specific service level, fees, rates, availability or timeframe and will not be liable to you for any negative affect, limitation, delay or restriction.
You hereby certify that you will use the Payouts to process transactions in the name of the registered Pay Portal holder only. Hyperwallet prohibits using the Payouts while impersonating any person or entity or falsely claiming an affiliation with any person or entity. If a Payor sends payments for loading to your Pay Portal, you may transfer those funds only to a bank account or other permitted Payout Method of which you are the named holder.
You may not transfer funds to third-party accounts. We may treat any attempt by you to send funds to an account or Payout Method or other payment instrument of which you are not the named holder as a fraudulent act.
You are not permitted to add money, send / transfer any funds to anyone other than yourself via the Pay Portal or through receipt of the Payouts.

We reserve the right to reject or limit Payout Methods at any time in our sole discretion, including but not limited due to anti-money laundering or risk management concerns. We retain full discretion to refuse to accept any user or to complete any instruction from a Payor or from you to make payments using the Pay Portal or Payout Methods.
5. Refused Transactions
We reserve the right in our sole discretion to refuse any transfer or other request. Reasons for refusal may include but are not limited to insufficient funds, incorrect or outdated information, or activity we deem suspicious. We generally will attempt to notify you of any refusal, using the contact information available to us or in your Profile, stating (where possible) the reasons for the refusal and whether the problem can be corrected. We will not notify you of a refusal where to do so would be unlawful or otherwise prohibited by law.
The Payouts may also be subject to transfer limits. These limits may be adjusted dynamically depending on the type of identification document(s) you provide to us as well as on any other criteria we require from time to time. We may require you to provide us with information verifying your identity, address or other information prior to allowing a withdrawal or transfer of funds. You agree to cooperate with us in any such requests.
6. Cancellation of Transactions
You may cancel a Spendback or Promo request for a refund, less applicable transaction fees, (a) within 30 minutes of authorizing your transfer request; or (b) at any time thereafter only if we have not already commenced processing the transaction in accordance with your order. Due to the particular requirements and rules governing the processing of transfers to Payout Methods, such as wire transfers, transfers and redemptions to such Payout Methods may not be canceled. If you believe there to be an error in connection with a transfer you should notify us immediately by contacting us.
7. Liability for Transfer Errors
You must ensure that the Payout Method details you enter when transferring funds are correct and complete. Failure to provide Hyperwallet with accurate information shall be your sole responsibility. We will not be responsible for actions taken by you in directing us to transfer funds and may rely on information you provide. We will not be liable for losses you sustain if a Payout is misallocated due to errors in the Payout Method details provided by you. It is your responsibility to make sure that all Pay Portal details including but not limited to any bank account numbers, bank account provider details, card details, currency selected, etc. are correct before sending. If any such details are incorrect, your funds may be debited or credited to the wrong account, card or other destination and may not be recovered. If you believe there to be an error in connection with a transfer you should notify us immediately by contacting us.
8. Right of Set-Off, Holds, Reversals, and Reserves
You agree that we are authorized at any time to set-off the funds in your Pay Portal or owed to you from your Payor against your debts or liabilities owed to us, including but not limited to those arising out of any breach of the Terms and Conditions. You also agree that we may reverse or place a hold on your transactions or place a reserve on your funds in your Pay Portal or otherwise owed to you from your Payor if you are in breach of or as otherwise as permitted by the Terms and Conditions. We may exercise any of the rights in this section without notice to you.
9. Dispute Resolution
Information regarding Payouts received, transfers made from your Pay Portal, Hyperwallet Card activity, and certain other Payouts are displayed in the “History” section of Pay Portal.

10. Additional Terms for Canada and the United States
10.1. Remittance
In the United States and Canada and except as otherwise explicitly agreed to by Hyperwallet through this Payout Schedule, Hyperwallet acts as an agent of the Payor in carrying out the Payout Method instructions and remittance of funds of such Payors to their designated payees. As an agent of the Payor, any balance of funds in the Pay Portal does not represent stored value owned by you but belongs to and is the property of the Payor until actually received by you via your Payout Method notwithstanding any ability you may have to direct or instruct us to make any payments of funds reflected in the Pay Portal to your Payout Method and/or to execute any Additional Optional Services such as but not limited to Spendback or Promos.
10.2. Stored Value
Where expressly indicated by Hyperwallet only, a Pay Portal balance may be treated as stored value and owned by you. In these situations, Hyperwallet will identify your Pay Portal balance as stored value and owned by you in the Pay Portal. Any such stored value is not a gift card or gift certificate. Where Hyperwallet has identified the balance in your Pay Portal as stored value, you do not need to maintain a balance in your Pay Portal in order to receive the Services although Hyperwallet reserves the right to close your Pay Portal in its sole discretion. You acknowledge that the Services and the Pay Portal are not bank accounts and that Hyperwallet is not a financial institution. Funds reflected in or transmitted in connection with the Pay Portal do not earn any interest payable to you.
Hyperwallet will combine your balance with the balances of other users and will safeguard those funds in accordance with applicable US state money transmitter laws. We will hold pooled balances separate from our corporate funds and will not use balances for our operating expenses or for other corporate purposes. We will not voluntarily make balances available to creditors in the event of insolvency.
11. Additional Payment Terms for the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and United Kingdom Only
11.1. Introduction
The Additional Payment Terms as described under this Section 11 are between (i) you, as an EEA-based or a UK-based Payee; and (ii) PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A. (R.C.S. Luxembourg B 118 349), a duly licensed Luxembourg credit institution in the sense of Article 2 of the law of 5 April 1993 on the financial sector, as amended, and under the prudential supervision of the Luxembourg supervisory authority, the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier. From 1 January 2021, PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A. is deemed authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. The nature and extent of consumer protections may differ from those for firms based in the UK. Details of the Temporary Permissions Regime, which allows EEA-based firms to operate in the UK for a limited period while seeking full authorisation, are available on the Financial Conduct Authority’s website.
PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A. provides Services to you in accordance with this Section 11. If you are receiving Payment Processing Services, PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A. provides these to you pursuant to Section 11.5.
11.2. Security and Use of Regulated Third-Party Service Providers
As stated in the Terms and Conditions, you must take all the steps you reasonably can to maintain adequate security and control of all IDs, usernames, passwords, personal identification numbers (PINs), or any other codes that you use to access the Pay Portal, receiving the Payouts or in conjunction with use of the Payout Methods, so that no unauthorised person or entity can use your credentials to log on to your Pay Portal. You must tell us as soon as you can by contacting us if you think someone may be using the Pay Portal without your permission. Before using a third-party service provider you should check with the regulator whether it is authorized and review the provider’s terms and conditions. In the event that we have reasonably evidenced and justified concerns about a third-party service provider for reasons relating to authorisation or fraud we may deny the third-party service provider access to your account. In such event we will notify you and the FCA before or immediately after access denial, unless this would compromise our security concerns or it would be unlawful to do so.
11.3. Restrictions
11.3.1. Provision of Spendback
If Hyperwallet makes Spendback available to you for the purchase of goods or services provided by your Payor, and except as otherwise agreed, Hyperwallet acts as an agent of the Payor in carrying out the Payout Method instructions, which instructions may be amended to reflect amounts netted off to execute Spendback purchases via the Pay Portal which is provided for the purposes of this section as a regulated money remittance service. Any amounts available for Spendback in the Pay Portal do not represent e-money owned by you but belong to and are the property of the Payor until actually received by you via your Payout Method notwithstanding any ability you may have to direct or instruct us to make any payments of funds reflected in the Pay Portal to your Payout Method and/or to execute any Additional Optional Services such as but not limited to Spendback. For the avoidance of doubt, the Pay Portal is not a payment account within the meaning of PSD2. Hyperwallet may offer, limit, restrict, or terminate any such services without notice to you.
11.3.2. Spending limits
You agree that we may apply spending limits to your Hyperwallet account and we’ll tell you if we do so.

The actions we may take include but are not limited to the following:
(i) We may, at any time and without liability, suspend, block, limit, close or cancel your right to use your account entirely or for any particular transaction, which may in turn suspend, block, limit, close or cancel access to the Payout Methods. We will normally give you advance notice of any suspension or cancellation but we may, if it is reasonable to do so (for example if you are in breach of these Terms and Conditions or we consider it advisable for security reasons), suspend or cancel your right to use your account without prior notice to you; or
(ii) Refuse any particular Payout Method at any time for any reason and will only be required to make available the fact of the refusal and the reasons for the refusal and how you may resolve the problem, where possible, upon request and provided it is not prohibited by law
11.4. PSD2 Provisions
Depending upon the Payouts to be made available to you by your Payor, certain Payout Methods described above constitute a regulated money remittance service in EEA or UK and do not involve you having e-money with us or any Affiliate. In the event that Payout Methods constitute money remittance, then your payment service provider will be a third party such as your bank or card issuer and you should refer to such party’s terms and conditions for the provision of regulated payment services to you.
In the event that you are in receipt of the Payment Processing Services pursuant to Section 11.5, then we are your payment service provider and our provision of regulated payment services to you is governed by all the terms herein and subject to the disapplication of certain provisions of EU’s Payment Services Directive (Directive 2015/2366/EU) (“PSD2”). You agree that, if and to the extent that the provision of any Payouts at any time is subject to any legislation in any jurisdiction implemented for purposes of transposing PSD2, the following provisions of PSD2 shall not apply to this Agreement or to the provision of such Payouts:
(i) Articles 40 (Charges for information), 41 (Burden of proof on information requirements), 42 (Derogation from information requirements for low-value payment instruments and electronic money), 44 (Prior general information), 45 (Information and conditions), 46 (Information for the payer and payee after the initiation of a payment order), 47 (Information for payer's account servicing payment service provider in the event of a payment initiation service), 48 (Information for the payer after receipt of the payment order), 49 (Information for the payee after execution), 51 (Prior general information), 52 (Information and conditions), 53 (Accessibility of information and conditions of the framework contract), 54 (Changes in conditions of the framework contract), 55 (Termination), 56 (Information before execution of individual payment transactions), 57 (Information for the payer on individual payment transactions), 58 (Information for the payee on individual payment transactions), 59 (Currency and currency conversion), 60 (Information on additional charges or reductions), 62(1) (Charges applicable), 64(3) (Consent and withdrawal of consent), 72 (Evidence on authentication and execution of payment transactions), 74 (Payer's liability for unauthorised payment transactions), 76 (Refunds for payment transactions initiated by or through a payee), 77 (Requests for refunds for payment transactions initiated by or through a payee), 80 (Irrevocability of a payment order), and 89 (Payment service providers' liability for non-execution, defective or late execution of payment transactions); and
(ii) where transactions are neither euro nor pound sterling transactions, the requirements regarding execution and time-value dating set out in any PSD2 transposition relating to Articles 83 to 85 of PSD2 will not apply to this Agreement or to the provision of such Payouts, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.

(ii) Payor Platform Services Fees. You hereby agree that the Payor Platform can deduct from your Platform Payee Account balance any Platform Services fees or other amounts payable to Payor Platform communicated to us by the Payor Platform. You are responsible for such payments to the Payor Platform even if there are insufficient funds to cover such fees associated with your Platform Payee Account.

Any funds associated with your Platform Payee Account, net of any deductions, set-off or debit amounts owed to the Payor Platform or PayPal, will constitute a Payout. If any amounts owed to PayPal exceed the amount of funds associated with your Platform Payee Account, PayPal may initiate a debit from your Payout Methods (if applicable). You agree that PayPal may debit your account for the applicable amounts, and/or setoff the applicable amounts against future Payouts. Upon PayPal’s request, you agree to provide PayPal with all necessary bank account, routing and related information and grant PayPal any required permission to debit the applicable amounts from your Payout Method. Any Payouts, including the timing thereof, will be in accordance with the terms and conditions established by, and communicated to you by, the Payor Platform. Any Payout may be reduced by the amount of fees, fines and amounts owed to PayPal or the Payor Platform for any reason.
(ii) Suspension of Payouts. PayPal reserves the right to suspend the Payouts to you, even after you have stopped accepting payments to your Platform Payee Account through the Payor Platform. Examples of situations where PayPal may do so are: (i) when PayPal is instructed to do so by the Payor Platform; (ii) where there are pending, anticipated, or excessive chargebacks, refunds, reversals, disputes or invalidated payments; (iii) in the event that PayPal suspects or becomes aware of suspicious activity; (iv) where PayPal is required by applicable law or court order. If PayPal exercises its right to withhold a Payout for any reason, PayPal will work with the Payor Platform to communicate the general reason for withholding the Payout and give you a timeline for releasing the funds and any necessary steps you’re required to take.
(iii) Incorrect Payouts. The information required for receiving your Payouts will depend on the financial institution where you hold your Payout Method. Please make sure that any information about your Payout Method that you provide to PayPal is accurate and complete. If your Payout Method information changes or you decide that you want to switch to a different Payout Method, you must notify PayPal by following the procedures established by the Payor Platform. The Payor Platform might require you to provide notice of a change a certain number of days in advance of the change taking effect. You understand that this requirement exists to ensure the Payor Platform has sufficient time to notify us of the change and to give us time to reflect the change in our systems. PayPal will not be responsible for any problems with a Payout that results from PayPal using incorrect Payout Method information because of your delay in providing notice to the Payor Platform.

Except where you have acted fraudulently, you are not liable for any losses incurred in respect of an unauthorised Payout transaction arising after properly notifying us. If we discover a processing error, we will rectify the error. If the error resulted in your receiving less money than you were entitled to, Hyperwallet will credit your account for the difference. If the error results in you receiving more money than you were entitled to, Hyperwallet may debit the extra funds from your account. If a Payout was made to your account by way of mistake, Hyperwallet may correct the mistake by debiting or crediting (as the case may be) your appropriate Funding Source(s). If the error resulted in our not completing a transaction on time or in the correct amount, we will be liable to refund any amount as a result of carrying out a defective, late or non-executed Payout transaction and for your losses or damages directly and reasonably foreseeably caused by this failure, unless:
- through no fault of ours, you did not have enough available funds to complete the transaction,
- our system was not working properly and you knew about the breakdown when you started the transaction, or
- circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood or loss of Internet connection) prevented the transaction, despite our reasonable precautions.
Notwithstanding any other term of these Terms and Conditions, Hyperwallet will not be held liable for the non-execution or defective or late execution of a Payout transaction if you have failed to notify PayPal about the issue without undue delay after becoming aware of the issue or in any event within 13 months after the debit date of the Payout transaction.

The Sites and Services are operated by Hyperwallet for Payors or on behalf of Payors, respectively.

Banking Regulations Notice for Payors in the EEA and UK
This section applies to Payors who have relationships with PayPal Europe. In general, the Luxembourg laws to which PayPal’s handling of user data is subject (data protection and bank secrecy) require a higher degree of transparency than most other EU laws. This is why, unlike the vast majority of providers of internet-based services or financial services in the EU, PayPal has listed in this Privacy Policy the third-party service providers and business partners to whom we may disclose Your data, together with the purpose of disclosure and type of information disclosed. You will find a link to those third parties here. By acknowledging this Privacy Policy and maintaining an account with PayPal, You expressly consent to the transfer of Your data to those third parties for the purposes listed.
PayPal may update the list of third parties referred to above every quarter (January 1st, April 1st, July 1st and October 1st). PayPal will only start transferring any data to any of the new entities or for the new purposes or data types indicated in each update after 30 days from the date when that list is made public through this Privacy Policy. You should review the list each quarter on the PayPal website on the dates stated above. If You do not object to the new data disclosure, within 30 days after the publication of the updated list of third parties, You are deemed to have accepted the changes to the list and to this Privacy Policy. If You do not agree with the changes, You may close Your account and stop using our services.
In order to provide the PayPal Services, certain of the information we collect (as set out in this Privacy Policy) may be required to be transferred to other PayPal related companies or other entities, including those referred to in this section in their capacity as payment providers, payment processors or account holders (or similar capacities). You acknowledge that according to their local legislation, such entities may be subject to laws, regulations, inquiries, investigations, or orders which may require the disclosure of information to the relevant authorities of the relevant country. Your use of the PayPal Services constitutes Your consent to our transfer of such information to provide You the PayPal Services.
Specifically, You consent to and direct PayPal to do any and all of the following with Your information:
a) Disclose necessary information to: the police and other law enforcement agencies; security forces; competent governmental, intergovernmental or supranational bodies; competent agencies, departments, regulatory authorities, selfregulatory authorities or organizations (including, without limitation, the Agencies referenced in the “Agencies” section of the Third Party Provider List here) and other third parties, including PayPal Group companies, that (i) we are legally compelled and permitted to comply with, including but without limitation the Luxembourg laws of 24 July 2015 on the US Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA Law”) and 18 December 2015 on the OECD common reporting standard (“CRS Law”); (ii) we have reason to believe it is appropriate for us to cooperate with in investigations of fraud or other illegal activity or potential illegal activity, or (iii) to conduct investigations of violations of our User Agreement (including without limitation, Your funding source or credit or debit card provider).
If You are covered by the FATCA or CRS Law, we are required to give You notice of the information about You that we may transfer to various authorities. Please read more about PayPal’s obligations under the FATCA and CRS Law and how they could affect You as well as take note of the information we may disclose as result.
We and other organizations, including parties that accept PayPal, may also share, access and use (including from other countries) necessary information (including, without limitation the information recorded by fraud prevention agencies) to help us and them assess and to manage risk (including, without limitation, to prevent fraud, money laundering and terrorist financing). Please contact us if You want to receive further details of the relevant fraud prevention agencies. For more information on these Agencies, fraud prevention agencies and other third parties, click here.
b) Disclose Account Information to intellectual property right owners if under the applicable national law of an EU member state they have a claim against PayPal for an out-of-court information disclosure due to an infringement of their intellectual property rights for which PayPal Services have been used (for example, but without limitation, Sec. 19, para 2, sub-section 3 of the German Trademark Act or Sec. 101, para 2, sub-section 3 of the German Copyright Act).
c) Disclose necessary information in response to the requirements of the credit card associations or a civil or criminal legal process.
d) If You as a merchant use a third party to access or integrate PayPal, we may disclose to any such partner necessary information for the purpose of facilitating and maintaining such an arrangement (including, without limitation, the status of Your PayPal integration, whether You have an active PayPal account and whether You may already be working with a different PayPal integration partner).
e) Disclose necessary information to the payment processors, auditors, customer services providers, credit reference and fraud agencies, financial products providers, commercial partners, marketing and public relations companies, operational services providers, group companies, agencies, marketplaces and other third parties listed here. The purpose of this disclosure is to allow us to provide PayPal Services to You. We also set out in the list of third parties, under each ” Category”, non-exclusive examples of the actual third parties (which may include their assigns and successors) to whom we currently disclose Your Account Information or to whom we may consider disclosing Your Account Information, together with the purpose of doing so, and the actual information we disclose (except as explicitly stated, these third parties are limited by law or by contract from using the information for secondary purposes beyond the purposes for which the information was shared).
f) Disclose necessary information to Your agent or legal representative (such as the holder of a power of attorney that You grant, or a guardian appointed for You).
g) Disclose aggregated statistical data with our business partners or for public relations. For example, we may disclose that a specific percentage of our users live in Manchester. However, this aggregated information is not tied to personal information.
h) Share necessary Account Information with unaffiliated third parties (listed here) for their use for the following purposes:
- Fraud Prevention and Risk Management: to help prevent fraud or assess and manage risk. For example, if You use the PayPal Services to buy or sell tickets using StubHub International’s marketplace, we may share Account Information with StubHub International in order to help protect Your accounts from fraudulent activity, alert You if we detect such fraudulent activity on Your accounts, or evaluate credit risk.
- As part of our fraud prevention and risk management efforts, we also may share necessary Account Information with StubHub International in cases where PayPal has placed a hold or other restriction on Your account based on disputes, claims, chargebacks or other scenarios regarding the sale or purchase of goods. Also, as part of our fraud prevention and risk management efforts, we may share Account Information with StubHub International to enable them to operate their programmes for evaluating buyers or sellers.
- Customer Service: for customer service purposes, including to help service Your accounts or resolve disputes (e.g., billing or transactional).
- Shipping: in connection with shipping and related services for purchases made using PayPal
- Legal Compliance: to help them comply with anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing verification requirements.
- Service Providers: to enable service providers under contract with us to support our business operations, such as fraud prevention, bill collection, marketing, customer service and technology services. Our contracts dictate that these service providers only use Your information in connection with the services they perform for us and not for their own benefit.

FanProtect® for Buyers and Sellers
Abuse of the FanProtect Guarantee
StubHub International will investigate all claims under the Guarantee and determine resolutions on a case-by-case basis. Such decisions are final.

To safeguard against False Claims, SHI reserves the right to charge the designated payment method for any funds that need to be reimbursed in the event of an investigation determining a false claim. In such cases, users should refrain from initiating a "chargeback" directly with their payment card issuer, as the charge is considered valid.
