What this covers
This policy applies to every paid placement on megaticketsusa.com — today, the billboards on the home page, on the event pages and on the Live Wire pages (news, artists and charts). An ad is your image and the page it links to: both have to follow this policy for as long as the ad runs.
Booking an ad also means agreeing to our Advertising Terms.
What we don't accept
- Competing ticketing platforms — Ticketmaster, Eventbrite, StubHub, SeatGeek, Vivid Seats, DICE and similar ticket sellers and resellers.
- Adult content.
- Gambling and betting.
- Weapons.
- Tobacco, cigarettes, vapes and cannabis.
- Political or cause advertising — candidates, parties, ballot measures and campaigns on political or social issues.
- Misleading promises — health “cures”, easy money, pyramid schemes, fake buttons or fake alerts.
- Anything that copies the Mega Tickets USA brand or could be mistaken for our own content.
- Anything illegal.
Alcohol
Alcohol ads are allowed — bars, breweries, restaurants and drink brands are welcome — as long as the ad doesn't target or appeal to anyone under 21 and follows the law.
The “Sponsored” label
Every ad on the site shows a visible “Sponsored” label, so readers can always tell an ad from our own content. The link on every ad carries rel="sponsored", which is how search engines expect paid links to be marked. Neither can be removed, for any advertiser.
Your art and your link
- Two images: one for computers at 1940×500 (at least 970×250) and one for phones at 600×500 (at least 300×250), each the same shape as those sizes within 1%.
- Still JPG, PNG or WebP, up to 2 MB each. No GIFs, animation or video.
- Clear about who it's from. A reader should know which business the ad is for.
- A working https:// link to a page that matches what the ad shows. It can't download files on its own or send people somewhere unrelated.
- Promoting an event? Link to your own site or to your event page on Mega Tickets USA. A link to your event on another ticketing platform counts as advertising that platform (see What we don't accept).
- A short description of the ad (3 to 120 characters), read aloud to people who can't see images.
Rights to what you show
You can only use logos, trademarks, photos, artwork and text that you own or have permission to use — including permission from people who appear in your photos. If someone tells us your ad uses their work or their brand without permission, we may take the ad down (see Taking an ad down). A take-down is final: the ad doesn't come back for the rest of its weeks.
How we review
A person on our team looks at every ad before it runs, normally within 24 hours of your reservation. We may decline an ad when:
- it promotes a competing ticketing platform;
- it shows something this policy doesn't accept;
- the art is unreadable;
- the link is broken or looks unsafe; or
- for another reason.
Declined means you pay nothing. Your card is only held when you reserve. If we decline your ad, the hold is released and nothing is charged.
Taking an ad down
We can take an ad down — before it starts or while it runs — if the ad, or the page it links to, stops following this policy, or if the law requires it. If we do, we e-mail you and your report shows the ad as taken down; write to contact@megaticketsusa.com with any questions. If your first week hadn't started yet, you get a full refund to the same card. Once it has started, what happens to the price is in the Advertising Terms.
Changes and questions
We may update this policy; the date at the top shows the latest version. Questions about whether your ad fits? Ask before you book — message us on WhatsApp or write to contact@megaticketsusa.com.
