The Oklahoma Fraud and Ticketing Accountability Act (OFTA) provides a framework to restore fairness and transparency in the ticketing market.

  • Resellers may only sell tickets they own. Duplicate ticket sales are banned.

  • Sellers and resellers must provide clear, itemized pricing and seat information at the point of purchase.

  • Artists and venues can limit transferability, enforce conduct policies, and manage purchase limits.

  • Fan club and pre-sale tickets may not be immediately resold to secondary markets.

  • Full refunds are required for canceled events, counterfeit tickets, or tickets not delivered as described.

  • Secondary sales are capped at 110% of the original ticket price to prevent predatory markups.

  • Misrepresentation of affiliation or use of unauthorized branding is prohibited.

  • Sports are excluded.

OFTA balances protecting consumers, supporting local artists and venues, and creating a transparent, accountable secondary ticket market, ensuring fair access to events and safeguarding Oklahomans from deceptive ticketing practices.
