Agreement to Organizer Terms

By applying to become an organizer and listing events on Event Pass Ghana, you agree to these Organizer Terms of Service ("Organizer Terms"). These terms are in addition to our general Terms of Service and specifically govern your relationship with us as an event organizer.

Payouts and Fees

Revenue Collection

All ticket sales revenue is collected through our platform and held until the event is completed. We reserve the right to:

  • Hold funds until the event date has passed
  • Release payouts within 7-14 business days after event completion
  • Deduct applicable platform fees before payout
  • Withhold funds if there are disputes, refunds, or investigations

Platform Fees

We charge a platform fee on each ticket sold. The fee structure is:

  • Service fee: A percentage of each ticket sale (see current fee schedule)
  • Payment processing fee: Paystack processing fees (approximately 1.5% + GH₵1.00)
  • Total fees are deducted from the gross revenue before payout

Fee schedules may change with 30 days notice. Continued use of the platform constitutes acceptance of new fees.
