2.6 The agreement as to the purchase of the Online Tickets is concluded exclusively between yourself and the respective event organizer.To the extent that events are advertised on www.tickets.de and the prospect is held out that tickets to these events will be sold, this will represent, in legal terms, nothing but a non-binding invitation to you to submit a purchase offer (so-called “invitatio ad offerendum”). This does not mean that we are guaranteeing that tickets are still available for that event. You will be deemed to have offered to conclude an agreement as soon as you have clicked on the dialog box “Bestätigen und Tickets kaufen” (confirm and purchase tickets) under “Warenkorb – Bestellung abschließen” (shopping cart – make an order). We will accept your offer on behalf of the respective event organizer. This is done by one Online Ticket per booking being sent to you, including a personal code (referred to hereinbelow as the “Authorization Code”). Should the number of Online Tickets you wish to purchase not be available, for whatever reason, you will be informed of this fact prior to the contract being concluded, and you shall no longer be bound to your offer. You will then have to submit a new order. We reserve the right to refuse your offer at any time without citing any reasons for such refusal.
3.1. Your Online Ticket will entitle only one person each to attend the event booked. Upon leaving the event or, respectively, upon having been activated once, the Online Ticket will no longer be valid.
3.2. We will send your Online Ticket to you by e-mail and, in the event you order several Online Tickets, these further Online Tickets will also be e-mailed to you. Should you have a customer account with www.tickets.de, all of the Online Tickets can be once again reviewed and printed using the “Meine Tickets” (my tickets) site on the homepage of www.tickets.de, while all Online Tickets sold by an event organizer can be once again reviewed and printed using the “Meine Tickets” site on the respective shop site of that particular events organizer. Furthermore, you can also e-mail the tickets to a different e-mail address from the one you specified upon registration or, provided this option is indicated to you in the individual case, you can send it to a cell phone number of your choice. You will also be able to download the invoices for the Online Tickets you have purchased from the “Meine Tickets” page.
3.3 Once we have made the Online Tickets available to you, we shall have fulfilled all of our obligations regarding the purchase of the Online Ticket. We wish to expressly note that no further tickets will be sent by post and/or fax and/or any other means.
3.4. You alone are responsible for securing your Online Ticket and in particular for ensuring the authorization code it contains is not made available to third parties. You will not be able to take recourse, vis-à-vis smart tickets or the event organizer, to stating that another person has obtained access to the event by presenting your Online Ticket. We thus ask that you ensure that only one hard copy or copy exists of your Online Ticket, in particular if this is printed once again or if you forwarded by e-mail or MMS. Should you fail to do so, there is a risk that another person will attend the event using the additional Online Ticket and will invalidate the authorization code, which can be used only once – thus preventing you from attending the event. Also, you should store your Online Ticket with the same care that you exercise in keeping your cash so that no unauthorized person can prepare copies or fraudulently use the Online Ticket in any other way.
3.5 It is expressly prohibited to use your Online Ticket in several instances.
4.1. You alone are responsible for the data you enter into the order form. Any orders placed in error, in particular any orders you make for other dates than the one intended, or for any other event than the one intended, will be charged to you, taking account of the options to correct the order provided for by law.
4.2. Once you receive your Online Ticket, you are under obligation to check immediately whether it corresponds to your order, and to inform us of any deviations via e-mail. You will then receive another Online Ticket from us. Should we have issued an Online Ticket that contains errors and should we not be able to issue any Online Tickets any longer at the time of your notice, because the event has been sold out, for example, we will of course reimburse you for any payments you have made to us. Any claims to compensation of damages on behalf of the customer pursuant to Clause 13 shall remain unaffected hereby.
5.1. You may pay for your Online Ticket by credit card or, to the extent this option is indicated in the course of the ordering process, using the electronic direct debit system or Giropay (Clauses 5.2. – 5.5.).
5.2. Such payment by credit card will be implemented via an encrypted online payment system (SSL Secure Socket Layer) of up to 128 bit, depending on the configuration of your computer’s browser. This payment by credit card requires you to provide us with the name of the credit card holder on the corresponding input form, the credit card number as well as any security PIN, if available, and the “valid thru” period of the credit card.
5.3. You may pay using the electronic direct debit system (EDD) by providing the number of your bank account and the bank code. You will be informed of the deadline by which such an EDD payment is possible in the course of the ordering process. You must ensure your account has sufficient funds available at your purchase since the amount will be debited to it immediately thereafter. Should you provide wrong account information, should the bank refuse to settle the amount, or should funds be retransferred, without any of the above being our responsibility, we will not accept any EDD payments from you in future. Nonetheless, the option of paying by credit card will continue to be available to you. You are under obligation to reimburse us for any costs that we may incur should the direct debit fail (the amount is not debited from the account or is retransferred).
5.4. Payments using the Giropay system are effected by directly transferring the amount to us. For this purpose, you will be transferred in the course of the order process to the secure login page of your financial institution. On that page, you will be asked to log in using your data (account number and PIN) and to use the electronic transfer slip, which already contains all the data necessary for the transfer. By entering a TAN (or an iTAN, mobile TAN etc.), you will then make the payment.
5.5. Until payment is made in full, the event organizer reserves the right to use the Online Ticket to access the event booked pursuant to Clause 5.2. or, respectively, Clause 5.3 or 5.4. Should you fail to pay for your ticket fully, or fail to pay for it in due time, we will disable the Online Ticket without prior notice. This means that it will not be possible to attend the event (this will be the case also if the payment is received late or is made retroactively).
6.1. As a matter of principle, you as a customer will have a claim to returning the Online Ticket and being reimbursed for the purchase price only if events are cancelled and postponed. This claim concerns the implementation of the event and is thus a claim vis-à-vis the event organizer. In such event, smart tickets will accept to reverse the transaction in the context of the contractual relationship between the customer and the event organizer, to the extent the event organizer makes available the corresponding amounts to smart tickets. We are not under obligation to reimburse customers for the convenience charge that you as customer pay to smart tickets for our services and which will have already accrued for our brokerage of the contract between you and the event organizer.

If you do not have a customer account yet, you will need to register in order to open a customer account; the process will be indicated.
6.4. Your rights to rescind the contract within the scope provided for by law, or to demand compensation for damages in the event the event organizer is responsible for a violation of its obligations, shall remain unaffected. However, the enforcement of claims to compensation of damages and/or the reimbursement of expenditures shall be subject to Clause 12. hereof.
7.1. You have the option of selling your Online Ticket via the Ticket Exchange wherever this function is enabled in the respective shop. For this purpose, you will need to click on the field “Verkaufen” (sell) for the respective ticket in the menu item “Meine Tickets” (my tickets) of your customer account.
