LIVE EVENTS & ENTERTAINMENT

A ticket is a commitment. Fans protect it like one.

From single-day tickets to season subscriptions, every purchase carries its own risk of falling through, and fans know it. Teak gives you the option to protect the full commitment, from purchase through the event itself, so the revenue already sold stays sold.

BUILT ON THE DATA

Protection for
what they've already committed to.

Average ticket prices are up 38% since 2019.1 Protection adoption has grown even faster, nearly tripling over the same period.2

Fans are telling us exactly what they're worried about. Here's what actually keeps them from the show:

  • What keeps fans away
    What we cover
  • 01
    Illness or injury, their own or a companion's
    Health & carer duty
  • 02
    Travel disruption getting to the event
    Travel disruption
  • 03
    The show itself changes from what was promised
    Event changes

That last one covers more than the obvious disruptions. A headliner cancels, or a Broadway lead sits out and the understudy steps in. Those changes can reshape the whole experience. Teak can extend coverage to match, with partial refunds calibrated to what actually changed.

Teak's in-event interruption benefit gives you the option to keep covering fans once the show has already started, tailored to what's most relevant for that specific event. See how that's built →

MULTI-DAY FESTIVALS

More at stake, more fans buying in.

Tickets bought months out. Trips planned with friends. Festivals get bought far in advance, sometimes the year before. We protect that long lead time so attendees commit early and organizers keep the cash on the books.

Rising prices used to mean rising hesitation at checkout. Now it means more fans looking for a way to protect what they're about to spend. Nearly two in three say any ticket over $100 should come with protection.1 That expectation is already set, the only question is will you capture the revenue behind it?

THE DIFFERENCE

Protection built
for every ticket type.

A single-day ticket, a festival pass, a season subscription, parking: each carries its own risk and its own price point. Teak builds the program around what each ticket type actually is, then lets protection extend as far as makes sense, from purchase through the event itself.

Every ticket type, one configured program

Single-day, multi-day, group, season subscriptions, and parking, each protected on its own terms.

Calibrated, not all-or-nothing

Partial refunds sized to what actually changed, whether that's the weather, the lineup or who's on stage.

WHAT PARTNERS SEE

Confidence at checkout, revenue
at the box office.

As Paciolan's official ticket insurance partner, FanShield, Teak's insurance brokerage for Filed Insurance, helped the Oklahoma City Civic Center turn hesitant Broadway audiences into confident ones without adding strain to the box office team. Patrons traveling from across the region for shows like Wicked made that bigger trip investment worth protecting.

Returned seats resold into live inventory

Lost seats became new revenue instead of empty ones.

FanShield Consumer Support Team

Handled refunds end to end, freeing staff to focus on patrons.

20%+
Fan opt-in at the Civic Center

Well above industry norms, on travel-distance Broadway audiences.

"Adding FanShield has benefited both our patrons and our venue. Customers appreciate having added assurance, while we've generated incremental revenue from resold seats and a share of protection sales."

Came down with the flu two days before the concert and couldn't go. Submitted the form that night and had the money back before the show even started. Painless.

We bought festival passes almost a year out and one of our group had a work trip land on the same weekend. Her pass was refunded in full, no argument. Worth every penny.

Festival attendee
★★★★★

Our flight into the city was cancelled and we missed the show completely. I sent in the airline notice and the refund came through in a couple of days. Customer service was great.
