Effective Date: October 19, 2026

These Terms and Conditions govern your use of the LipaTix platform and your purchase of event tickets through our service. By accessing or using LipaTix, you agree to be bound by these terms.

Last Updated: October 19, 2026

1 Introduction

LipaTix is an online event ticketing platform that enables buyers to discover events and purchase tickets digitally. By accessing or using the LipaTix website, services, or purchasing tickets through the platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions.

1.1 Platform Ownership and Legal Operator

LipaTix is owned and operated by TheBhub Innovations Limited ("TheBhub"), and is not a separately incorporated or registered company. LipaTix is the brand and digital event ticketing platform through which TheBhub provides its ticketing services.

In these Terms, "LipaTix", "we", "us" and "our" refer to TheBhub Innovations Limited acting through the LipaTix platform, unless the context requires otherwise. These Terms form an agreement between the buyer and TheBhub Innovations Limited as the platform's legal operator.

If you do not agree with these terms, you should not use the platform.

2 Role of LipaTix

LipaTix acts as a ticketing intermediary between event organizers and ticket buyers.

Intermediary Role:
LipaTix facilitates ticket sales, payment processing, and ticket delivery but does not organize, host, or manage events directly.
Event Responsibility:
Event details, pricing, schedules, and policies are set by the event organizer. Any issues related to the event itself remain the responsibility of the organizer.
Payment Collection and Organizer Settlement:
When a buyer purchases a ticket, the full payment is initially collected through payment accounts held by TheBhub Innovations Limited using supported payment providers. TheBhub subsequently remits the applicable proceeds to the event organizer under its arrangement with that organizer, after any agreed platform fees, commissions, refunds, or other applicable adjustments. Receiving a ticket payment does not, by itself, make TheBhub the event organizer.

3 Ticket Purchase & Payment

3.1 Purchase Process

All ticket purchases are made online through LipaTix. A ticket is considered valid only after successful payment confirmation.

3.2 Payment Methods

Payments may be made via supported payment methods including:

  • M-Pesa
  • Credit/Debit Cards
  • Mobile Banking
  • Other approved payment gateways

3.3 Who Receives Your Payment

Ticket payments made through LipaTix are initially received through payment accounts maintained by TheBhub Innovations Limited, the legal owner and operator of LipaTix. TheBhub collects these payments in connection with ticket sales facilitated for event organizers and subsequently settles the applicable organizer proceeds under the relevant organizer arrangements.

Where an event is organized by a third party, the event organizer remains responsible for delivering the event and establishing its event-specific policies. Any refund requests are handled in accordance with Section 6 of these Terms and applicable law.

3.4 Ticket Delivery

Once payment is completed, tickets are delivered digitally via email and/or the buyer's account. You are responsible for ensuring your contact details are correct at checkout.

Important Note

Failed payments do not guarantee ticket reservation. Tickets are only secured upon full payment confirmation.

4 Ticket Delivery & Access

4.1 Electronic Tickets

Tickets are issued electronically (PDF or digital ticket with QR code). Each ticket contains a unique QR code used for entry validation.

4.2 Ticket Access

Buyers may download tickets and access them anytime through their account or email. Lost or deleted tickets can be re-downloaded from the platform.

4.3 Prohibited Actions

Sharing, duplicating, or reselling tickets without authorization is strictly prohibited and may result in ticket cancellation without refund.

5 Entry & Event Admission

5.1 Entry Requirements

Admission to an event is subject to ticket validation at the venue. Tickets may be scanned once unless otherwise specified.

5.2 Right to Deny Entry

Event organizers or authorized staff reserve the right to deny entry if:

  • A ticket has already been used
  • A ticket is invalid, altered, or duplicated
  • Event rules are violated
  • The ticket holder does not meet age or other requirements

5.3 Platform Liability

LipaTix is not responsible for denial of entry due to organizer policies, venue rules, or ticket validation issues.

6 Refunds & Cancellations

90% Refund When an Event Is Cancelled

If an event is cancelled by its organizer, eligible buyers will receive a refund of 90% of the affected ticket value. The remaining 10% is retained toward payment processing and administrative costs incurred in connection with the transaction and cancellation. This policy is subject to any greater refund entitlement required by applicable law.

6.1 Cancelled Events

When an event organizer confirms that an event has been cancelled, LipaTix will notify affected ticket buyers using the contact details provided at purchase and will coordinate the applicable refund process. The 90% cancelled-event refund policy applies regardless of an event organizer's separate rules for voluntary ticket cancellations, except where applicable law requires a different outcome.

6.2 How the Refund Is Calculated

The standard cancelled-event refund is calculated as 90% of the price paid for the affected ticket. For example, if the ticket value was KES 1,000, the refund would ordinarily be KES 900 and KES 100 would be retained for processing and administration. The treatment of any separately disclosed additional charges is subject to the terms shown at checkout and applicable law.

6.3 Refund Processing and Payment Method

After the event organizer confirms cancellation and LipaTix completes its verification, refunds are typically processed within 3–7 business days. Funds are refunded through M-Pesa or, where supported, the original payment method. The time it takes for the refunded amount to appear in a buyer's account may also depend on the payment service provider.

6.4 Postponed or Rescheduled Events

If an event is postponed or rescheduled rather than cancelled, the original ticket generally remains valid for the new date. Refund requests for postponed events are reviewed on a case-by-case basis in coordination with the organizer, subject to the buyer's applicable legal rights.

6.5 Buyer-Initiated Cancellations

If a buyer no longer wishes to attend an event that is going ahead as planned, refunds are subject to the relevant event organizer's published refund policy and applicable law. An event may be designated as non-refundable for voluntary cancellations. The 90% cancelled-event refund described above does not automatically apply when a buyer changes their mind.

6.6 Refund Requests and Responsibility

LipaTix is operated by TheBhub Innovations Limited, which initially receives full ticket payments through its supported payment accounts before settling the organizer's applicable share. TheBhub, through LipaTix, coordinates eligible ticket refunds with the organizer and supported payment service provider.

For refund assistance, contact info@lipatix.com and provide your order number, event name, and the email address or phone number used when purchasing the ticket. You may also consult our Refund Policy page.

Important Notice

The 90% refund policy is for organiser-cancelled events. Other refund requests are reviewed under the applicable event policies and Kenyan law. Any legal right to a larger refund is not restricted by these Terms.

7 Event Changes

Event details such as date, time, venue, performers, or format may change. Organizers are responsible for communicating major changes to ticket holders.

LipaTix is not liable for changes made by organizers. Buyers are encouraged to check event updates regularly through their account or organizer communications.

8 Buyer Responsibilities

As a buyer, you agree to:

  1. Provide accurate and complete information during registration and checkout
  2. Keep your ticket secure and confidential
  3. Follow venue rules and event policies
  4. Not misuse, duplicate, or resell tickets unlawfully
  5. Comply with all applicable laws and regulations

Any misuse may result in ticket cancellation without refund and potential legal action.

9 Platform Availability

LipaTix aims to provide a reliable service but does not guarantee uninterrupted access. The platform may be temporarily unavailable due to:

  • Scheduled maintenance
  • Technical issues
  • Security upgrades
  • External service disruptions

LipaTix is not liable for losses caused by temporary downtime.

  1. LipaTix is not responsible for event quality, cancellations, safety, or venue conditions
  2. LipaTix is not liable for indirect or consequential losses
  3. Liability is limited to the value of the ticket purchased
  4. LipaTix does not guarantee the accuracy of event information provided by organizers
