The MAIN Event Ticketing Act aims to improve online ticket sales and protect consumers by enforcing security measures and reporting circumvention.
The MAIN Event Ticketing Act mandates that online ticket issuers implement and maintain security safeguards to protect website integrity and customer data. It requires issuers to enforce purchasing limits and report any circumvention incidents to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The FTC must publish compliance guidance and create a website for consumer complaints. Law enforcement agencies will coordinate with the FTC to share information on cyberattacks. Violators face civil penalties, including a minimum of $10,000 per day for ongoing violations and an additional $1,000 per violation.
