TicketGuardian and Events.com Partner for Unique Insurance Offering to Protect Event Registrants

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 23, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- TicketGuardian, a full transactional insurance technology platform, has partnered with Events.com, a premier event management and registration platform, to offer industry leading ticket and registration insurance.

In North America, over 500 million people enrich their lives annually by registering for events. Events.com services a variety of events like the Cleveland Marathon, Florida Renaissance Festival, Club Getaway Adult Camps and thousands of others.

Prior to the TicketGuardian ? Events.com partnership, the majority of participants and event goers would not receive a refund if they couldn't attend. However, the partnership allows Events.com customers the option to offer insurance through TicketGuardian to protect their participants' investment when they add insurance when registering for events offering insurance.

"This is exciting to partner with Events.com. Both companies believe this should have been done a long time ago within the industry," said Bryan Derbyshire, Founder and CEO of TicketGuardian. "Planning for an event is important and therefore protecting your investment in that experience makes sense. I'm glad the Events.com team feels the same."

TicketGuardian and Events.com's strategic partnership leverages each company's strengths; insurance technology and event management respectively. Injuries or even last-minute schedule changes often present the largest barrier to entry for many prospective participants. Removing those concerns provides peace of mind to participants and event organizers alike which is necessary in today's consumer-first marketplace.

"Training for 22 iron-distance triathlons has led to injuries that prevented me from competing," said Mitch Thrower, Founder, Events.com. "I would have saved tons of money if TicketGuardian was an option to protect my registrations."
