TicketNetwork Leads Ticket Brokerage Community With Top Security Solutions for Ticket Buyers and Sellers

Participating PCI Brokers Offer Ticket Buying Customers Optimal Credit Card Protection

VERNON, CT--(Marketwire - December 4, 2008) - TicketNetwork, the leading source for event tickets and innovative technology solutions, today announced that ticket sellers who use TicketNetwork Point-of-Sale™ are able to offer their customers the industry's most secure protection of their credit card information. TicketNetwork is a certified merchant, service provider and payment application provider with PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards) certification.

TicketNetwork worked closely with ticket sellers nationwide who use TicketNetwork Point-of-Sale™ and TicketNetwork's merchant processing to individually certify them as PCI compliant through ControlScan, an approved scanning vendor (ASV). The company's Verified Secure solutions make it easy and cost-effective for these businesses to protect their infrastructure and help keep their websites safe so shoppers can purchase with confidence. Most websites in which tickets are sold, including the leading online ticket resellers, have not taken the initiative to incorporate leading edge security precautions in online consumer transactions. TicketNetwork is proud to ensure its customers, partners and affiliates that all ticket purchases made via its exchange are backed with solid protection from credit card fraud.

"Our company recently attained elite PCI compliance certification, and we extended this important security feature to all of our participating ticket brokers on an individual basis. More than half of the brokers we contacted about this program have committed to becoming PCI-compliant in the next two weeks," said Don Vaccaro, CEO, TicketNetwork. "Our company clearly leads the secondary ticket industry on many fronts including unparalleled software technology, the leading selection of event ticket inventory, real-time transactions, and security and consumer protection -- all of which are essential to the online ticket purchasing experience," added Vaccaro.

"Customers now will have more confidence in the companies in which they buy tickets from," said Jennifer Spector, sales manager, Front Row, an Atlanta-based ticket broker.

"We've had good feedback from our clients; customers feel 100% confident that their data won't be compromised," said Scott White, President of Houston-area based In Demand Tickets.
