Best Way to Sell Season Tickets for Upcoming Games

If you hold season tickets but are not able to attend some of the games, you can sell the unused seats. Lysted allows you to resell MLB season tickets and other sports passes on its user-friendly platform. Here is more information about selling season tickets for upcoming games:

Using a Single Platform

Utilizing a single, centralized platform for selling season tickets simplifies the process, allowing you to manage multiple ticket sales and see all available inventory. This prevents you from having to learn multiple resale processes across different websites. A user-friendly interface offers tabs to track ticket sales and makes it easier to see if tickets have been delivered successfully. When deciding on a platform, look for:

• • Maximized visibility: A third-party platform is able to post your listings on multiple websites, reaching a high number of ticket resale sites. Lysted posts your tickets on over two thousand sites.

• • Synchronized listings: Some platforms synchronize ticket listings, allowing price adjustments and other changes to appear on all listings instead of having to adjust each one individually. When the tickets are sold, the platform removes them from all websites at the same time, preventing possible double sales.

Planning Timing Around Match Schedules

Strategically timing listing releases around periods of high ticket demand helps increase visibility and supports higher ticket prices. Learning the season schedule as early as possible allows you to plan ahead. You may need to adjust your ticket-selling strategies based on the day and who is playing. The weather is another factor that has the potential to impact ticket listings, sometimes requiring you to lower prices or temporarily remove a listing to drive sales.

Preparing your listings for high-priority games early helps increase the likelihood of a buyer purchasing your tickets. High-priority games include season openers, division rivalries, and season closers. Creating listings for these games early in the season, before other sellers, gives more possible buyers the chance to see them. You can also wait until tickets sell out for specific matches, allowing you to charge a higher price.

Demand is sometimes higher for Friday and Saturday games compared to mid-week matches. To help you sell tickets for a mid-week game, post the listing during game week at a lower price. Make sure there is enough time for the tickets to be sent to the buyer to avoid potential issues.

Avoiding Listing or Transfer Errors

Making sure all ticket information on your listing is accurate helps prevent seller penalties such as fines or cancelled sales. Double-check your seating details, including the row and date on your listing, to avoid errors. The seating information on your listing must be identical to the account. If the view of the event is obstructed in any way, include this information in the listing.

Reselling sports tickets online may come with unique requirements. To resell MLB tickets, barcode verification is often required. Make sure that your platform supports barcodes, as you may need to send these tickets via barcode transfer. Some websites utilize compliance filters to detect potential violations before posting. Lysted offers help articles on how to list tickets and follow MLB requirements, and we offer 24/7 support for sellers.

Exploring Automated Options

Some third-party platforms allow you to automate the selling process, creating listings and delivering tickets for you. This saves time compared to manually managing listings. It also helps prevent you from missing in-hand delivery dates, which can result in cancelled sales.

Websites like Lysted also offer automatic pricing options that reduce the need to constantly monitor competitor pricing and other market trends for season tickets. Pricing tools are able to monitor live sales across the market, and they adjust your prices to stay competitive. You can set specific parameters, such as minimum or maximum limits, to guide the tool. Real-time pricing data keeps your listings up to date, helping prevent underselling or stagnant rates. This may improve the chances of a higher profit.
