Payment solutions for event promoters

How each solution supports event promoters

See what each option adds to the way your business takes and tracks payments.

High-Risk Merchant Account

For event promoters: Present your model for advance ticket sales, event packages and booking fees to specialist processing partners, with product and fulfillment documentation prepared. Roots Payments places event promoters with acquiring banks and processors that knowingly underwrite event tickets and VIP packages, so the account is built to last instead of flagged after the first review. We work with virtually any legal business, subject to underwriting; pricing, limits, and terms depend on the acquirer's review. Reserves may apply, and any reserve is disclosed in your agreement before you sign.
  • Pre-underwriting review of your website, checkout, and documents (venue contracts, insurance, and past-event history)
  • Application packaged and submitted only to acquirers with appetite for your category
  • Plain-English walkthrough of pricing, reserve, and termination terms before you sign

Mobile Payments

For event promoters: Collect payments for advance ticket sales, event packages and booking fees away from a fixed counter, with transactions recorded against the sale or job. Event promoters often take payment away from a counter. Roots sets up mobile readers and tap-to-pay on phones, tied to a merchant account approved for your category, so field payments are not processed through an app whose terms exclude you.
  • Device selection and setup
  • Field staff training
  • Receipt and evidence templates for disputes
