Ticketmaster is a global leader in live event ticketing, operating as the primary ticketing service provider for thousands of artists, teams, and venues worldwide. As a subsidiary of Live Nation Entertainment, our mission is to connect millions of fans with the live entertainment they love, providing a secure, reliable, and convenient platform for discovering and purchasing tickets for concerts, sports, theater, and more.
We work on behalf of event organizers (venues, promoters, artists, and teams) to distribute tickets for their events. We leverage cutting-edge technology to offer features like interactive venue maps, verified ticket security, and mobile-entry solutions, ensuring that the seats you buy are the seats you get. Our commitment is to manage the entire ticketing lifecycle, from the initial on-sale to the final scan at the door.
Ticketmaster offers a secure and verified resale marketplace where fans can list and sell tickets they can no longer use, subject to the event organizer’s policies.
PRICING:
When you sell tickets on the Ticketmaster marketplace, the platform deducts a fee from your final sale price, which is retained by Ticketmaster and may be shared with the Event Organizer.
| Fee Type | Description | Seller Fee Range |
| Resale Service Fee | The fee charged to the seller for using the platform to list, sell, and transfer their tickets securely to a new fan. This fee is deducted from the price you set before your payout is processed. | Typically 10% to 15% of the ticket’s resale price. This percentage is not fixed and can vary by event, venue, and location. |
Important Pricing Notes:
- You Set the Price: As the seller, you determine the listing price for your ticket (in adherence to any local or event-specific price caps). The fee percentage is calculated based on this selling price.
- Payout: Your final payout will be the listed sale price minus the Resale Service Fee.
- “Face Value Exchange” Exception: For certain events where the Event Organizer implements a “Face Value Exchange” policy, the resale price is capped at the original ticket cost. In these specific cases, Ticketmaster generally does not charge a resale service fee to the seller.
Pricing: When your tickets are sold, a seller fee is collected from the total selling price of your tickets. During the listing process you’ll be able to preview all listing details, including the seller fee.
