How to request a refund

(Last Updated 9/23/23)

Here's how to request a refund for an event that you purchased tickets to on PromoTix.

NOTE: refund policies differ between events. To see if your purchase is eligible for a refund, please check your event's refund policy that is posted on event page that you purchased tickets from.

NOTE: all refunds have to be issued by Protecht (if you purchased refund protection on your order) or by your event organizer - PromoTix staff is unable to issue refunds.

1. If you purchased refund protection on your order

PromoTix Confirmation Email Enhanced Refund ProgramIf you purchased refund protection on your order, then you will need to submit a claim to Protecht in order to request a refund on your order.

If you are not sure if you purchased refund protection or not, check your confirmation email from no-reply@promotix.com (containing your tickets) and view the "Order summary" section. If the "Enhanced refund program" amount on your receipt is greater than $0.00, this means that you purchased refund protection on your order (see the image above).

Here are the steps to request a refund from Protecht:

  1. Locate your confirmation email from noreply@protecht.com that contains information about your refund program (see image below)
  2. Click the Request a refund button in the body of the email.
  3. If you are unable to locate your confirmation email from Protecht, you can also call +1 (844) 800-5585 or email help@protecht.com for assistance.

NOTE: If you do not see the "Request refund" option, this means your event does not have refund requests enabled. In this case, you can request a refund by simply emailing your event organizer.

Here are the steps:

  1. Locate your confirmation email from no-reply@promotix.com containing your ticket(s)

  2. Your event organizer's support email address will be listed in the body of the email.

  3. Send an email to your event organizer requesting a refund

How to print your PromoTix tickets

(Last Updated 7/12/23) While we highly recommend printing your PromoTix tickets and bringing them with you to your event, please note that this is not an absolute requirement. So long as you bring your ticket QR code(s) with you to the event, your event organizer will be able to scan them and check you in. Here are other acceptable methods of redeeming your tickets: Downloading your ticket(s) and bringing digital copies with you to the event on your mobile device Taking a screenshot of your ticket(s) and bringing the screenshots with you to the event on your mobile device Bringing your confirmation email that has your ticket(s) attached with you to the event on your mobile device NOTE: bringing your confirmation email to the event may require an internet connection, so printing, downloading your ticket(s), and taking screenshots of them are safer methods.
