TERMS OF Service

By using Funny.CEO (operated by Funny CEO LLC), you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the platform. We have tried to write them so that a person can read them: where something affects your money, it says what happens to it.

"The stage is for comedy; the platform is for business."

Users are strictly prohibited from:

• Bypassing security protocols or attempting unauthorized administrative access.
• Manipulating the ticket marketplace or pricing algorithms for fraudulent gain.
• Posting content that violates our community standards for professional talent.
• Automating interactions with the platform (botting) without written consent.

Funny CEO LLC provides the platform "as is". We work to keep it running, but we are not liable for losses caused by outages or events beyond our reasonable control — or for how a set goes. Nothing in these Terms limits a liability that the law does not allow to be limited, and nothing here reduces what we owe you for money we hold for you.

• Buying a ticket: you are buying it from the show's organizer — the venue, or the producer running the show. Funny CEO LLC collects the payment as the organizer's limited agent, so once you have paid us, you have paid them.
• The price shown before you pay is the whole price: the ticket and our booking fee together. Nothing is added later.
• Each show's refund policy is set by its organizer and shown at checkout. If a show is cancelled, every online ticket is refunded in full, our fee included.
• A gift card is issued by the venue it names. The money goes to that venue when you buy it, so the venue honours it and decides any refund. We do not expire gift cards.
• Tips in dollars go to the comic in full; our fee and card processing are added on top and shown before you pay. Tips are final once sent.
• "FUs" (Funding Units) are Funny.CEO's own credits. They carry no cash value outside the Platform and cannot be turned into money by anyone — including a comic you tip with them.
• FU purchases are non-refundable, except where a refund is required by law.
• If we owe you money — a share of a sale, a commission, pay for a set — and you have no account we can pay, we hold it for you in dollars, never in FUs. It does not expire, and we pay it when you connect one.
• Funny CEO LLC acts as an intermediary for ticket sales and talent bookings. The contract for a performance is between the Venue and the Comedian or Fan — not with us.
• Where we hold funds pending settlement, we hold them as an intermediary and not as a bank; no interest accrues to you.
• A sponsorship or ad sold through Funny.CEO for a venue is the venue's: its share is paid to the venue's owner, including on nights a producer rents the room and runs the show. A producer keeps what they earn from sponsors they find for their own show; we take no part of it.
• If you sell tickets or are paid through us, the Organizer Agreement or Performer Payout Terms you accept in your dashboard also apply, and where they are more specific, they govern.

You keep ownership of everything you make. Comedians represent that they hold the rights to the material they upload or perform. Venues are responsible for the safety and management of their premises during shows booked through the Platform.

You grant Funny CEO LLC a worldwide, royalty-free licence to display and promote the content you post, for the purpose of operating and marketing the Platform. That licence ends when you delete the content, save for copies already distributed or retained in backups. Funny.CEO and its logos are trademarks of Funny CEO LLC.

You are responsible for keeping your credentials confidential and for providing accurate registration information. Funny CEO LLC may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms. These terms are governed by the laws of the State in which Funny CEO LLC is registered, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

We may update these terms. Material changes are published here with a new effective date, and the version in force when you registered is recorded against your account.
