LOS ANGELES (January 29, 2025) – Sensible Weather, the leading weather guarantee provider for travel and outdoor experiences, announces a new collaboration with Leap Event Technology, the global event technology solution offering all-in-one suite of ticketing, mobile apps, experiential marketing, CRM, merchant services, and event management tools, combined with expert marketing and analytics. The partnership currently extends Sensible’s Weather Guarantee to event organizers who use Leap’s self-service ticketing solution, TicketLeap. This offering provides additional protection and peace of mind for events across the US.
The Weather Guarantee offers guests the option to receive up to 100% reimbursement of their event ticket price if rain is forecast to exceed the predetermined threshold during their booking. If they’re eligible for a payout, guests will be notified by SMS and email on the morning of their event, and the reimbursement will be processed automatically via ACH or PayPal.
“At Leap, our goal is to help event organizers connect with audiences and bring unforgettable experiences to event-goers around the world,” says Lauren Chan Lee, Chief Product Officer of Leap Event Technology. “Now, with Sensible’s Weather Guarantee available to our clients, we’re thrilled to be able to offer a solution to the negative impacts from weather - which is always a top concern for event organizers.”
“Leap Event Technology works with some of the most iconic brands in attractions, music, fandom conventions, sports, and the arts, and we’re so excited to extend our network with Sensible Weather to their partners,” says Nick Cavanagh, Ph.D., Sensible Weather CEO.
Leap Event Technology began offering Weather Guarantees to organizers selling tickets on TicketLeap for 120+ events across 35 states last fall. During the peak Halloween and holiday event period, customer satisfaction remained consistently high at 4.85/5, showcasing how beneficial Weather Guarantees are for live events.
Beyond offering peace of mind for event attendees, Sensible Weather also offers Leap Event Technology’s clients – ranging from haunted attractions and farms to sports games and outdoor festivals – an opportunity to increase conversion on ticket sales, while also resulting in higher guest satisfaction rates.
Sensible’s Weather Guarantees are now available to events using TicketLeap’s suite of features. Start selling tickets and using the Sensible Weather feature for free by signing up for TicketLeap at https://admin.ticketleap.events/register.
