S 1191 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes requirements for fee disclosure and for fees allowed as part of sale for certain tickets.

This bill requires ticket sellers - including brokers, resellers, and websites - to clearly display the total price of a ticket (including all fees like service charges) before purchase. It mandates that this total cost be shown in dollars, prominently but not more prominently than the base price, and prevents price increases during checkout (except for delivery fees on physical tickets). Venues cannot charge extra fees beyond the set ticket price plus taxes, though reasonable service charges for delivery or special services are permitted. The law directly affects consumers buying tickets and businesses selling them, aiming to prevent hidden fees and misleading pricing.
