Introducing the First “Sell-It-Now” Option with No Fees for Fans
Los Angeles – December 5, 2025 – Ticket Buyback™, a new US-based ticket resale service, launched today with a simple goal: become the easiest way to sell your extra tickets. Traditional marketplaces connect buyers to seller listings and collect fees on both sides. Ticket Buyback provides instant cash offers, with no seller fees, in minutes.
Ticket Buyback serves the millions of fans who purchase tickets to sports, concert, and theater events but find themselves unable to attend due to schedule conflicts or illness. The service provides fans with a quick, simple solution that avoids the stress and complexity of listing tickets.
How Ticket Buyback™ Works
Selling tickets is simple:
- Get Your Quote: Search for your event and enter section, row, and seat numbers. Receive an instant offer tied to current market value.
- Transfer Your Tickets: Accept the offer and securely transfer your tickets through the original ticketing platform.
- Get Paid: Payment is sent securely using the same trusted payout processor used by major ticketing platforms.
Key Points
- No Seller Fees: Keep the full quoted amount with complete transparency
- Instant Offers: No listings, no waiting for buyers, no monitoring prices
“Consumers need a completely new alternative in the ticket resale marketplace – especially when last-minute changes in plans arise. TicketBuyback’s value proposition is rooted in simplicity, transparency, and eliminating the stress from the ticket selling process,” said Max Kaplan, Founder and CEO of TicketBuyback. “TicketBuyback offers a new platform to offload unwanted tickets with speed, security, and consumer satisfaction.”
Addressing Industry Challenges
The secondary ticket market has traditionally operated as a buyer-seller marketplace, where individuals list tickets, set prices, and wait for the tickets to sell. While this model works for buyers, it requires significant effort from sellers: pricing research, listing management, and fees typically ranging from 10% to 35%. If your tickets don’t sell quickly, there is no visibility into “why.”
Ticket Buyback offers an innovative solution by purchasing tickets directly from sellers. This streamlined approach provides instant offers and removes the complexity and stress of managing listings or competing with other sellers.
Building Trust Through Transparency
Trust is everything. That is why Ticket Buyback offers:
- 24/7 customer service with trained representatives
- Step-by-step guidance throughout the selling process
- Transparent pricing without hidden fees
- Industry-standard secure payout processing
- Post-event verification to prevent fraud
