On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic. This announcement was based on the alarming levels of spread and severity. With the potential threats and risks of COVID-19, we want to assure you that our services should continue with no unusual interruptions or slowdowns.
We will continuously monitor releases from local governments, health authorities and the WHO in order to support the health and well-being of our community in impacted areas.

On March 12, the Alberta government announced a standing recommendation that large gatherings of over 250 people should be cancelled or postponed. We recommend postponing your events if possible, but if you must cancel your event, please contact support@showpass.com so we can work with you to process any refunds.
Our Terms and Conditions state that our Service Fees are non-refundable, as unfortunately we incur costs that we do not recover in these situations. As an Event Organizer you have the option to refund all but the fees to your attendees, or to refund your attendees in full but pay the owed service fees to Showpass. More information on this process can be accessed by emailing us at support@showpass.com or contacting your Account Manager.
