Verified sellers. Encrypted payments. Real humans backing every trade.
Every ticket on TKTZ goes through identity verification, airline-portal cross-check, and partner-network underwriting before it appears in the marketplace.
Identity verified - every seller.
Every TKTZ seller passes Sumsub KYC - the same identity stack regulated banks and exchanges use. Passport, selfie liveness, biometric match, sanctions screening. No anonymous resale, ever.
- ✓Government ID document check
- ✓Liveness biometric match
- ✓Sanctions + PEP screening (PCI-DSS aligned)
Portal-verified - every ticket.
We log into the airline's own portal and confirm the ticket exists, the route matches, and the seat is real. Re-checked any time the listing changes. Full audit trail visible to the buyer before they pay.
- ✓Direct portal handshake (not just a screenshot)
- ✓Re-verified on price change or seat update
- ✓Timestamped proof visible in the listing

Payment back to original card.
When a ticket sells, the seller's payout goes back to the exact credit card they used to buy the original ticket. No new accounts to open, no wallets to manage, no wire transfers to chase. PCI-DSS-aligned end-to-end.
- ✓Card data tokenised - TKTZ never sees the raw PAN
- ✓Payout within 3 business days of sale
- ✓Buyer pays the same way - through one of our regulated partner gateways
Backed by the partner network.
Every transaction sits inside a relationship with a regulated travel partner (Kishrey Teufa today, ISSTA + Ophir Tours coming). They underwrite the booking record, hold the customer relationship, and step in if anything's off.
- ✓Real customer-service phone lines (not just chatbots)
- ✓Partners hold formal IATA licences
- ✓Disputes routed to a human within 24h
