Effective Date: June 16, 2025

Welcome to KariPass (“Platform”, “we”, “our”, or “us”), a Caribbean-based digital marketplace that provides event ticketing and e-commerce retail services. These Terms of Use and Transaction Policy (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of our website, mobile app, and services (collectively, the “Platform”).

By using the Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not access or use the Platform.

1. Eligibility

Only the authorized holder of the payment method (or a minor under parental/guardian supervision, with the requirement that the parent/guardian reads and agrees to this Agreement) may use the Platform. Users under the age of 13 are strictly prohibited.  By using the Platform, you warrant that you meet these requirements.

2. Scope of Services

We provide two main services:

a. Ticketing Services

Users may browse, purchase, and manage tickets for events listed by third-party event organizers (“Organizers”).

b. E-commerce Services

Users may browse, rent or purchase, and receive products or services offered by third-party vendors (“Sellers”) or by KariPass directly.

We are a facilitator, not the seller or organizer of most goods or events, unless explicitly stated.

3. Account Registration

To make purchases or list events/products/services, you must register an account. You agree to provide accurate and updated information and are responsible for all activity on your account.

  • Accurately describe listings (event details, product specifications, prices, etc.).

We reserve the right to suspend or remove listings or accounts for violations of these Terms.

  • Provide accurate contact and payment information.
  • Abide by any event, venue, or product use terms set by the Organizer or Seller.

All prices are listed in Eastern Caribbean Dollars (XCD). Cross-border or foreign exchange fees may apply based on your payment method.

c. Ticket Delivery

Tickets are delivered via:

  • Email (PDF or QR code)
  • In-app wallet (if applicable)

Organizers are responsible for ticket validity and event access.

d. Product Delivery

Product shipping times, methods, and tracking are defined by the Seller and shown at checkout. Delivery timelines may vary based on the island or region.

e. Returns & Refunds

  • For Tickets:
    • Canceled Events: Full or partial refunds may be issued at the Organizer’s discretion.
    • Postponed Events: Tickets usually remain valid for the new date.
    • No-Show: No refunds will be issued if you miss the event.
  • For Products:
    • Refund/return eligibility is based on the Seller’s individual policy.
    • You are responsible for return shipping unless the item was defective or incorrect.

We may assist in mediating disputes but are not liable for outcomes of buyer-organizer or buyer-seller issues.
