Increases transparency in ticket reselling marketplaces
This bill requires online ticket reselling platforms to create verified accounts for every seller, which must include their real name and a government-issued photo ID. Before a purchase can be completed, buyers will be shown the seller's name and photo to increase transparency in the marketplace. The law mandates that platforms verify these details by checking copies of official identification documents. This change directly impacts ticket sellers and buyers by making the identity of the person selling the ticket visible throughout the transaction process.
