Increases transparency in ticket reselling marketplaces
This bill requires online ticket resale platforms to verify sellers' identities using government-issued photo ID. Sellers must create accounts showing their name and a photo, which the platform verifies before listing tickets. Buyers see the seller's name and photo before completing a purchase. The law applies directly to ticket resellers on these platforms and aims to make transactions more transparent by confirming seller identities.
