Clique is a social-first nightlife platform that enables Hosts to list and sell tickets to Events and enables Guests to discover, book, and attend those Events. Clique acts solely as an intermediate technology platform and is not a party to the actual Event organised by the Host.

• —Obtain and submit to Clique all necessary permissions, licences, and clearances before the Event is published, including noise permits, fire safety compliance, entertainment licences, and any alcohol-related permissions.
• —Permit entry only to Guests who hold a valid Ticket issued through the Platform. No walk-ins, complimentary invitees, or third-party pass holders shall be permitted.
