Thanks and Oztix Collaboration: A New Era in Ticket Purchasing
In a groundbreaking initiative, Thanks, a customer-centric native ad network committed to reviving the love for advertising, has joined forces with Oztix, the largest independent ticketing company in Australia. Announced on November 17, 2025, this collaboration introduces a unique blend of ticket purchasing and media monetization that promises to deliver benefits at just the right moment for fans.
The partnership integrates Thanks' AI-driven post-purchase media platform into Oztix’s digital ecosystem, allowing customers to discover offers tailored to their interests immediately after securing their tickets. These offers range from travel and dining deals to merchandise and exclusive experiences, enhancing the overall ticket purchasing journey.
Giving Back to the Community
As part of this exciting rollout, Thanks and Oztix are collaborating to support Make-A-Wish® Australia, a charitable organization dedicated to granting wishes for children with critical illnesses. A portion of the proceeds from ticket sales will be donated quarterly, ensuring that every ticket purchased not only creates memorable experiences for fans but also aids in brightening the lives of children across Australia.
Steve Tesoriero, Founder and Co-CEO of Thanks, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, "Oztix is a pillar in Australia's live-event landscape, connecting millions of fans to the experiences they cherish. Partnering with a company that values its audience as much as we do is thrilling. Together, we are leveraging the same AI technology trusted by major brands, expanding its application into live events, and enriching the post-purchase experience for all involved."
Oztix, with over two decades of experience in the live entertainment sector, has always emphasized partnerships with promoters, venues, and communities to strengthen the industry. By aligning with Thanks, they are introducing an innovative method of philanthropy, empowering fans to contribute to charitable causes seamlessly through their ticket purchase experience.
"This collaboration reflects our mutual commitment to creating meaningful experiences. For us, many of who are parents, giving back to Make-A-Wish resonates deeply. Our goal is to extend the magic and connection seen at live events to families and children who need joy, especially during tough times,” stated Stuart Field, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Oztix.
A Step Towards a More Rewarding Market
