Terms of Service
Last updated: 2026.
By renting a Happy Seats padded stadium seat ("a seat"), you agree to these terms.
What you're renting
A rental ("pass") buys you a number of seat slots for the length of the pass (single game, day, weekend, or season) — not specific physical seats. Any available seat can fill a slot, so checking a seat in at the tent, taking a different one back out, or swapping mid-event is expected and free while your pass is active.
Card on file
A valid card is required to start any rental — this covers the non-return and damage fees below. Cash is accepted for fees, but we still need a card on file before a seat goes out the door.
Returning your seat(s)
Seats are due back when your pass expires (event end for single-game passes, venue close for day passes, Sunday close for weekend passes). Drop them at any marked return bin or the tent.
- First time late: no charge — return it by the next event and we'll waive the fee.
- 5+ days late: we charge a $25 per-seat replacement fee to the card on file (capped at $75 per pass). At that point the charge is treated as a purchase — if the seat turns up later, bring it back and we'll refund you.
- Repeat non-returns: customers with two or more charged non-returns may be asked for a card pre-authorization hold on future rentals.
Damage
Seats are inspected on return. Fees are charged to the card on file, with a photo attached to the record:
- Minor (scuffs, normal wear): $0
- Moderate (stains, bent but safe): $5–10
- Major (torn, broken, biohazard): $25
Staff may waive any damage fee at their discretion.
Refunds
Refunds for cancelled or rained-out events are handled by Happy Seats staff, pro-rated by unused days (weekend passes) or remaining games (season passes).
Assumption of risk / liability waiver
Happy Seats seats are provided for comfort only and are not safety equipment. You use a rented seat at your own risk. Happy Seats is not responsible for injury, loss, or damage arising from misuse, improper placement, or normal risks of attending a live sporting event. Do not use a rented seat in a manner other than as a stadium/bleacher seat cushion with backrest.
Pricing & tax
Displayed prices are tax-inclusive at the venue's configured rate (0% until Happy Seats is tax registered in a given jurisdiction — this will be reflected in displayed pricing when it changes).
