Thanks, the customer-first native ad network dedicated to reshaping how people experience advertising, has announced a strategic partnership with Oztix, Australia’s largest independent ticketing provider. The collaboration brings Thanks’ AI-powered post-purchase media monetisation technology to Oztix’s digital ecosystem, giving fans access to tailored offers at the exact moment excitement is at its peak: immediately after buying their tickets.
Through this integration, Oztix customers will be presented with contextually relevant recommendations across categories such as travel, dining, merchandise, and local experiences-turning the post-purchase moment into a more engaging and rewarding touchpoint. The partnership is designed to enhance fan journeys while unlocking new value for promoters, venues, and event organisers.
A core component of the rollout is a shared commitment to community impact. Thanks and Oztix will jointly donate a portion of proceeds each quarter to Make-A-Wish® Australia, helping bring life-changing wishes to children battling critical illnesses. The initiative ensures that every ticket purchase does more than secure a seat-it also contributes to bringing hope and joy to families across the country.

“Oztix is a cornerstone of Australia’s live-event scene, connecting millions of fans to the experiences they love,” said Steve Tesoriero, Founder and Co-CEO of Thanks. “We’re thrilled to partner with a team that truly values its audience and is willing to innovate to add more meaning to every ticket purchase. Together, we’re building on the same AI-powered platform trusted by major brands like eBay, Linktree, and Booking.com, and expanding it into the world of live events, making post-purchase moments more valuable for everyone involved.”
For more than twenty years, Oztix has cultivated strong partnerships across the live entertainment ecosystem—including promoters, venues, artists, and local communities. Known for championing initiatives that uplift and strengthen the industry, Oztix now extends that commitment into the post-purchase experience. By integrating Thanks’ platform, the company introduces a new way for fans to support meaningful causes simply through their everyday event participation.
“Together, we’re showing how retail media and community can work side by side – creating rewarding experiences for fans while giving back. Many of us are parents ourselves, so giving back to Make-A-Wish feels deeply meaningful. It’s about spreading the same joy and connection we see at live events to children and families who need it most,” said Stuart Field, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Oztix.
The partnership marks a significant step forward in the evolution of post-purchase media within the live events sector—delivering personalised value to fans, additional revenue opportunities for partners, and meaningful social impact across Australia.
