Q: What are the fees for buying tickets and what do they cover?
A:

We will show you your order total before you place the order or bid on tickets. The total amount of your StubHub ticket purchase equals:

  • The full price of the tickets (or, for auction-style sales, the full amount of your winning bid), plus
  • A commission equal to 10% of the full ticket price (or winning bid amount), and
  • A delivery fee
    • Shipping Services: $11.95 to $24.95 (depending upon where your tickets are being shipped and the shipping option you choose)
    • eDelivery Services: $4.95
    • Last Minute Services: $15.00

The shipping fee pays for your FedEx shipment with our integrated tracking system, which helps ensure the seller ships your tickets and that you get them on time. To provide ticket pick-up as close to the venue as possible, the Last Minute Services fee helps cover the expense of the Last Minute Service Centers.

You can be confident that StubHub is a safe, secure place to buy and sell tickets. Our patent-pending FanNetwork™ system ensures a convenient, reliable service you can trust. The 10% commission allows us to provide the following unique benefits:

  • An open marketplace, so we can offer you the widest possible selection of tickets at the best prices available - and unlike other websites, no two-minute time limit!
  • National marketing programs and team, artist, and media partnerships that attract a large pool of potential sellers.
  • Toll-free customer service - seven days a week - to answer your questions.
  • Our industry-first FanProtect™ Guarantee that your tickets will be authentic and arrive on time.

Q: Where do these tickets come from?
A:

Unlike other ticket websites, StubHub is not a ticket broker and we don’t own the tickets you purchase on our site. We started StubHub to provide an active marketplace where fans can gather to buy and sell tickets.

The price of tickets in a listing is determined by each individual seller. We're an open marketplace, which means that anyone can sell tickets at StubHub

Who are the sellers?

Among the fans selling tickets at StubHub are:

  • season ticket holders who cannot attend every game,
  • licensed ticket brokers,
  • ticket holders who have changed their plans,
  • ticket holders who are unable to attend an event, and
  • ticket holders with extra tickets to sell.

As a buyer, this allows you to choose from the widest possible selection of tickets to buy. Sellers may be individuals, businesses, ticket brokers, corporate sponsors, promoters, fan club members, contest winners, or just about anyone who wishes to see their tickets end up in the hands of another fan.

Are there any guarantees?

Yes! When you place an order at StubHub, we guarantee your tickets will be authentic and that they will arrive in time for the event. To learn more, read about our FanProtect™ Guarantee.

Q: Why are some tickets priced differently within the same section?
A:

StubHub is not the ticket seller; you are buying tickets from a third party. When you buy tickets to a game, show, or other event at StubHub, you're buying from other fans, just like you, who have chosen to resell their tickets. Our unique marketplace allows you to see all of the available tickets at once, giving you the power to easily find the tickets you want, in the quantity you need, and at the best price available.

If you don't find what you're looking for, check back often! Our listings are constantly updated, and sellers regularly adjust prices as an event approaches based upon event news, supply and demand, and a variety of other circumstances.

Q: What is a confirmed order?
A:

When you place an order for tickets at StubHub, we authorize (but do not charge) your credit card to verify your order and, as a safeguard, immediately send the seller an email instructing them to confirm that they will be able to deliver the tickets for your order.

We give sellers 48 hours to receive the notification email, confirm the order, and provide an expected fulfillment date. Sellers using Last Minute Services are required to confirm orders in 24 hours or less to ensure that buyers receive their tickets before the event.

In a nutshell, when your order is confirmed:

  • The seller has agreed to fulfill your order
  • You receive an order confirmation email
  • Your credit card is charged
  • Your purchase is fully covered by StubHub's FanProtect™ Guarantee

What if the seller doesn't confirm my order?

If a seller does not confirm your order after 48 hours, we will attempt to contact the seller about the delay in confirmation. If the seller cannot confirm the order, we will try to find alternate tickets in the StubHub marketplace for you to buy – or you may cancel the order.

When searching for alternate tickets, we will attempt to find and offer the best tickets available at StubHub that are as similar as possible to the original ticket price and location. Keep in mind, the price of tickets available at StubHub is determined by supply and demand and the price of alternate tickets may be more or less than your original order total.

Again, you may agree to purchase the alternate tickets (which may be at a different price than your original order) or you may cancel the order. If you ultimately cancel the order – or if we are unable to find comparable alternate tickets for you – the authorization on your card will be released and you will not be charged.

Are StubHub sellers dependable?

StubHub sellers have a proven record of reliability that we’re very proud of. Additionally, sellers who fail to confirm orders face account suspension, deactivation, and other possible penalties. Rest assured, sellers at StubHub have an exceptional success rate for confirming their orders.

Q: Where are my tickets?
A:

If your tickets do not arrive by the expected delivery date, give us a call within 3 days at 1.866.STUBHUB (1.866.788.2482).  Have your order number ready and we will help you locate your tickets.

Remember, in some cases, a seller will not ship tickets immediately upon receiving an order. For example, this is often the case for NBA, MLB, NHL and NFL ticket holders whose tickets may not be distributed until a few weeks before the start of the season.

As soon as the Seller confirms your order, we’ll send you an email to let you know when your tickets will be delivered, or (if you’ll be picking up the tickets) when and where your tickets will be available for pick-up. If your tickets will not be delivered right away, we’ll email you again on the expected delivery date.

How long should I wait for Order Confirmation?

Although this is rare, if you place an order and do not receive an Order Confirmation email within 48 hours, please give us a call right away at 1.866.STUBHUB (1.866.788.2482). We will contact the seller on your behalf to inquire about the unconfirmed order.

How will I get my tickets?

StubHub offers three types of delivery, depending upon the tickets and the event. No matter which delivery method is available, we guarantee your tickets will arrive in time for the event. For a ticket listing, one of three delivery methods will be available:

  • FedEx Shipping – Most ticket orders will be shipped by FedEx. We use FedEx because it allows us to track all shipments and ensure delivery, which, in turn, lets us know when to pay sellers.

    Shipping fees range from $11.95 to $24.95, depending upon where and how quickly your tickets are being shipped. We ship to the United States and Canada only.

  • eDelivery – eDelivery allows you to receive your tickets or electronically or pick them up from a venue Will Call window or ticket kiosk. Options include standard eDelivery, Instant eDelivery and WillCall/Kiosk.

    eDelivery fees are $4.95 – StubHub’s lowest-priced delivery method.

  • Last Minute Services – With Last Minute Services, you can purchase tickets right up to the start of the event and pick them up at a convenient Last Minute Service Center before the event starts.

    To make this service possible, there is a $15.00 fee to help cover the expense of the Last Minute Service Centers.

Can I track my FedEx shipment?

Yes. If your tickets are being shipped to you, we’ll provide a FedEx tracking number when we send your Order Confirmation and on your My Orders page once your tickets have been shipped. Just click the link to track your package on the FedEx website.

If you still have questions about your shipment, email customerservice@stubhub.com or give us a call at 1.866.STUBHUB (1.866.788.2482). Please have your order number ready.

Q: How do I pick up tickets at a Last Minute Service Center?
A:

With Last Minute Services, you can purchase tickets for select events at StubHub right up until event time and pick up your tickets at a Last Minute Service Center.

To make this service possible, there is a $15.00 handling fee for Last Minute Pick-up orders.

Important: When visiting a Last Minute Service Center, bring your StubHub Order Number or confirmation email, a valid photo I.D., and the credit card you used when you purchased your tickets.

Where are the Last Minute Service Centers?

Click here to see a list of the regional Last Minute Service Centers and their addresses. You can click any city in the list to view a printable page with a map and more information about the location.

Is this a complete list?

No. This is a list of the Last Minute Service Centers that have permanent addresses. To provide ticket pick-up as close to the venues as possible, the locations of the other pick-up locations vary, depending upon the events and venues.

For Last Minute Service Centers not listed:

  • Most are located within walking distance of the venue.
  • We will always give you the exact address before you place your ticket order.
  • We will repeat the address and provide directions in your order confirmation email.

Note: Last Minute Services for buyers and sellers in the StubHub marketplace are provided by Last Minute Transactions, Inc., a StubHub affiliate that owns and operates the Last Minute Service Centers

When can I pick up my tickets?

In most cases, the Last Minute Service Centers open 2 hours before the start of an event and stay open until the event begins. You can pick up your tickets any time during this 2-hour period.

Note: Early pick-up is not available. In the rare case that early pick-up is available for your event, we will send you an email with your early pick-up options.

Can someone else pick them up for me?

If you are unable to pick up your tickets, you may be able to authorize someone else to pick them up on your behalf. Give us a call at 1.866.STUBHUB (1.866.788.2482).

Note: Last Minute Services for buyers and sellers in the StubHub marketplace are provided by Last Minute Transactions, Inc., a StubHub affiliate that owns and operates the Last Minute Service Centers.

Q: How do I pick up tickets at Will Call/Kiosk?
A:

When eDelivery (or Instant eDelivery) is the Delivery Method, Will Call/Kiosk may also be an available delivery option. If Will Call/Kiosk is available, you can select it on the Order Summary page before you place your order.

If you select Will Call/Kiosk, you will not receive any paper or electronic tickets for your order. Instead, you’ll just take your photo ID and purchase credit card to the venue Will Call window or any ticket kiosk on the day of the event.

Very Important: You must receive an email from StubHub confirming that your tickets are at Will Call/Kiosk to be guaranteed entry to the event. This email should arrive within 48 hours of placing your order.

If you are purchasing tickets for someone else, you must provide the recipient’s name when you place your order. For Will Call/Kiosk orders, the recipient must go to a Will Call window to pick up the tickets and their name must be on file for admission to the event.

Q: Why is there a fee for picking up tickets?
A:

For Last Minute Services orders, the $15.00 fee helps provide the service and operation of the Last Minute Service Centers, which enable you to conveniently pick up tickets purchased when the event is less than 3 days away.

For Will Call/Kiosk orders, the $4.95 fee helps make the integration with venue Will Call and ticket kiosks possible.

Q: Why don't you reveal the seat numbers?
A:

There are a couple of reasons.

First, it's a privacy issue for many sellers. Requiring the disclosure of seat numbers would make many sellers unwilling or unable to sell their tickets at StubHub - and that would reduce the number of tickets available for you to purchase.

Second - and more important - we want to provide a level of guarantee for the tickets you purchase. Because most tickets are shipped directly from the seller and are never in our possession, guaranteeing exact seats is simply beyond our capability. For example, if your purchase 2 tickets from a listing of 6 tickets, we cannot guarantee which 2 of the 6 the seller will ship to you.

What about aisle seats?

Aisle seats are a major selling point for any set of tickets. If one of the tickets in a listing is for an aisle seat, the seller will almost certainly state this in the listing's Comments. But again, we are unable to guarantee which tickets the seller ships from a listing.

So what do we guarantee?

We understand how important it is to get the tickets you want. We guarantee that the tickets you purchase from a single listing will be seated together - unless otherwise noted in the listing's Comments. We also guarantee that the tickets you receive will be in a section and row equal to, comparable to, or better than the section and row listed. For more information, read about our FanProtect™ Guarantee.

Does StubHub ever guarantee seat numbers?

Yes. Because StubHub is partnered with Major League Baseball, when a season ticket holder lists Major League Baseball tickets from their team’s website, the seat information is automatically transferred to StubHub from the team, allowing us to guarantee those exact seats to buyers and deliver the tickets by Instant eDelivery. When seat numbers are available, you’ll see them on the Order Review page before you place your order.

Q: Will all of my seats be together?
A:

Yes – we guarantee it! If the tickets you purchased were listed together in a single listing – even if you did not purchase all of the tickets in the listing – the tickets you receive will be seated together unless otherwise noted in the seller’s Comments. Please review the ticket details before making a purchase.

If the tickets you receive are not seated together and this was not noted in the Seller Comments, please give us a call immediately at 1-866-STUBHUB (1-866-788-2482).

Note: At some venues, even (or odd) numbered seats are consecutive. For example, seats 2, 4, and 6 may be consecutive. Please check the seat map or contact the venue directly to determine the venue's seat configuration.

Q: How do I select a quantity of tickets?
A:

In the ticket listing, Quantity denotes the number of tickets available for you to purchase, as specified by the seller. If the seller is willing to split the quantity and sell a portion of the tickets, the listed quantity will read "Up to (#) tickets together." Otherwise, the quantity will read "(#) tickets together," and the number is not negotiable.

For example, if the quantity reads, "Up to 6 tickets together," you may be able to purchase a single ticket, a pair of tickets, or a group of three tickets, depending upon how the seller is willing to split the quantity. If the quantity reads "6 tickets together," the seller is only willing to sell all six tickets as a group.

If you’re on a budget, need a specific number of tickets, or both, you can use the StubHub TicketFilter to list only those available tickets that match what you’re looking for.

To use the TicketFilter to locate tickets:

  1. Choose the quantity you're looking for from the Quantity drop-down menu. To find tickets in all available quantities, choose "--."
  2. Select the checkbox corresponding with the price range that fits your budget. To find tickets at any price, select "Show All."
  3. Click the Find button.

A list of tickets matching your search criteria displays.

Q: I received an error while placing an order. What should I do?
A:

If you get an error while placing an order, double-check the order details to ensure that all the information you provided is accurate. If you still receive an error, it's possible that your financial institution is flagging the purchase for some reason. Contact the company that issued your credit or debit card to make sure they have not placed a hold on the purchase for any reason.

If this doesn't resolve the issue, please give us a call at 1.866.STUBHUB (1.866.788.2482) for assistance.

Q: Why does StubHub only ship by FedEx?
A:

We use FedEx so we can track all shipments to ensure that sellers ship tickets on time and that buyers get them in time for their events. From the moment you place your order, we’re watching closely to make sure the exchange goes smoothly – and we don’t pay the seller until we’ve confirmed delivery.

In short, integrating the StubHub marketplace with FedEx tracking helps make our FanProtect™ Guarantee to buyers and sellers possible.

Q: What is eDelivery?
A:

With eDelivery, you ll receive your tickets electronically and print them from home. Currently, eDelivery is only available for Major League Baseball ticket orders.

eDelivery includes three types of delivery methods:

  • eDelivery – With eDelivery, like other StubHub orders, the seller must first confirm your order before your tickets can be delivered. As soon as your order is confirmed by the seller, we’ll send you an email with instructions on how to download and print your tickets from home. Just download the tickets, print them, and take them with you to the event.
  • instant delivery eDelivery –  With Instant eDelivery, you’ll get your tickets within minutes. When you place your order, we’ll send you an email with instructions on how to download and print your tickets from home.
  • WillCall/Kiosk – When eDelivery (or Instant eDelivery) is the Delivery Method, Will Call/Kiosk may also be an available delivery option. If Will Call/Kiosk is available, you can select it on the Order Summary page before you place your order.

    If you select Will Call/Kiosk, you will not receive any paper or electronic tickets for your order. Instead, you’ll just take your photo ID and purchase credit card to the venue Will Call window or any ticket kiosk on the day of the event.

    Very Important: You must receive an email from StubHub confirming that your tickets are at Will Call/Kiosk to be guaranteed entry to the event. This email should arrive within 48 hours of placing your order.

    If you are purchasing tickets for someone else, you must provide the recipient’s name when you place your order. For Will Call/Kiosk orders, the recipient must go to a Will Call window to pick up the tickets and their name must be on file for admission to the event.

Q: What s the difference between eDelivery and Instant eDelivery?
A:

Like other orders at StubHub, sellers must confirm the eDelivery orders they receive. Sellers have 48 hours to confirm orders, so even though you ll receive your tickets electronically, you won t get them instantly.

instant delivery eDelivery means the seller gave StubHub instant access to the tickets when the ticket listing was created. That means your order is immediately confirmed as soon as you place it and you’ll get your tickets right away. In addition, because StubHub has immediate access to the tickets, we are able to guarantee the seat numbers. When Instant eDelivery is available for a set of tickets, you’ll see the seat numbers on the Order Review page before you place your order.

The same rule applies to Will Call/Kiosk orders. If eDelivery and Will Call/Kiosk are available, the seller must confirm your Will Call/Kiosk order. If Instant eDelivery and Will Call/Kiosk are available, your order will be confirmed as soon as you place it. But keep in mind, in both cases you will not receive paper or electronic tickets for Will Call/Kiosk orders.

Q: How do I print e-tickets?
A:

If your tickets are being delivered electronically, you ll need a printer that can print e-tickets (such as an ink-jet or laser printer). Just click the link in your email or go to your My Orders page to download and print your tickets.

Note: In some cases, your tickets will be emailed to you as a PDF attachment. If so, you ll also need Adobe Reader to print your tickets. Click here to download Adobe Reader for free. Then, just click the attachment in your email to download and print your tickets.

What if I don’t have a printer?

When you place your order, you can select the Will Call/Kiosk option (if available) and pick your tickets up at the venue Will Call window on the day of the event.

If Will Call/Kiosk is not available and you don’t have a printer at home, you can print your tickets at a local business that offers printing services, such as any FedEx/Kinko’s location.

Q: Why can't you ship to my P.O. box?
A:

We use Federal Express to ship all packages. This allows us to track your package at every stage during the shipping process. However, FedEx delivers only to business and residential addresses, and not to P.O. boxes.

We ship within the United States and Canada only and we guarantee your shipment will arrive in time for the event. If you live in Canada, we won't accept your order unless there is enough time for your shipment to clear customs and arrive in time for the event.

A:

FedEx Shipping – Shipping fees range from $11.95 to $24.95, depending upon where and how quickly your tickets are being shipped. We ship to the United States and Canada only.

Our unique system ensures the secure exchange and timely delivery of tickets, assuring the speed, convenience, and reliability that make our guarantee possible and gives fans peace of mind.

Q: How do I bid on an auction?
A:

After reviewing the ticket details in an auction-style listing, to bid on the tickets:

  1. Click the Place Bid button. You may be prompted to log in.


  2. The Current Bid, Minimum Bid, and Bid Increment display.

    The Minimum Bid is the lowest bid amount the Seller is willing to accept. The Bid Increment is the increase in dollar amount required for each new bid. For example, if the Current Bid is $60.00 and the Bid Increment is $5.00, the next bid must be at least $65.00.
  1. Enter the maximum amount you are willing to pay for all the tickets in the listing in the Your Maximum Bid field and click the Continue button.

    Each time someone outbids you, we'll automatically increase your bid by the specified bid increment until you win the tickets or your maximum bid amount is reached, whichever comes first.

    Important: An authorization for the amount of your Maximum Bid (plus fees) is sent to your credit or debit card each time you place a new bid. Although your card is not charged until the sale ends (if you are the winner) and the seller confirms your order, debit card issuers will withhold funds (up to 48 hours) for each authorization your account receives. Therefore, when bidding on auction-style listings, we recommend always using a credit card.
  1. Follow the remaining steps, just like any other purchase.

    Important: Before you click the Place Bid button, carefully examine the ticket details, double-check to make sure all of your shipping and billing information is correct, and read the StubHub User Agreement.
  1. If you're ready to start bidding, click the Place Bid button.

Q: Do the listed ticket prices differ from face value?
A:

Most likely, yes. Because the seller determines the price of tickets in each listing, the listed price may differ from the face value printed on the ticket. Keep in mind, to decide on a sale price, the seller must consider the original cost of acquiring the tickets, which may include convenience fees, delivery charges, acquisition rights, and a variety of other expenses.

When you buy tickets at StubHub, you may be paying more than face value or you may be paying less. Ultimately, supply and demand dictate successful sale prices. In the case of popular events, with many potential buyers and few sellers, demand will drive prices up. On the other hand, tickets for an event with many sellers and few buyers will often sell below face value.

It is the seller's responsibility to abide by the StubHub User Agreement and list tickets in accordance with all applicable local, state, federal, and international laws, statutes, and regulations. However, sellers are free to ask any price for their tickets and StubHub does not attempt to regulate sellers' ticket prices.

In addition, it is the buyer's responsibility to make informed purchase decisions. If you are concerned about paying more than face value for tickets, StubHub recommends checking an event's ticket prices with the venue before placing an order. When comparing prices, keep in mind the event's popularity and ticket availability, as well as the various expenses sellers might incur to obtain the tickets.

For more information, please read our User Agreement.

Q: Can I order tickets at StubHub that aren't yet on sale to the public?
A:

Sometimes, yes.

Once an event has been formally announced and is featured on the StubHub website, sellers are free to list tickets for that event – even if the tickets aren't yet available to the general public.

How is that possible?

Many StubHub sellers have advance access to tickets, possibly as season ticket holders or through other connections. In addition, StubHub may have partnerships with artists, teams, or venues that occasionally make advance ticket availability possible.

Finally, StubHub is an open marketplace. As such, there are StubHub sellers who list tickets on speculation. To keep the marketplace secure, we work closely with sellers to ensure orders are fulfilled. StubHub sellers are required to deliver the tickets they list to remain in good standing – and we take pride in our sellers' proven record of reliability.

So there's no risk?

Any open marketplace has its risks – but assuming that risk for you is part of the service we provide. We will not charge you until the seller confirms delivery of your order. Once your order is confirmed by the seller, we guarantee that you'll get your tickets and that they'll arrive in time for the event. You can order tickets at StubHub with confidence, knowing that you'll be covered by our FanProtect™ Guarantee.

Q: The event I purchased tickets for was rescheduled and I can't go. What should I do?
A:

If an event has been postponed and rescheduled, your tickets are yours to use on the new date. If you're unable to use the tickets, you may be able to post them for sale at StubHub.

If the event has not yet been rescheduled, continue to monitor the situation. We will re-list the event as soon as a date is announced. Again, you can attend the event on the rescheduled date or, if time permits, post them for sale at StubHub.

If a postponed event is ultimately cancelled, read about Cancelled and Contingent Events.

Unfortunately, the circumstances surrounding postponed events are unpredictable. Although we will try to help you resolve your ticket situation, we are not responsible for postponed events, partial performances, or venue, date, or time changes. No refunds will be issued.

Q: What do I do if my tickets were lost, damaged, or stolen?
A:

Keep in mind that once you receive your tickets, you are responsible for their welfare and safekeeping. Unfortunately, most tickets are irreplaceable and we cannot guarantee any replacements. Treat your tickets as if they are cash and keep them in a safe, secure place until you're ready to use them.

If your tickets were lost during shipment, give us a call immediately at 1-866-STUBHUB (1-866-788-2482). We will work with FedEx on a claim to help locate your tickets.

What if I need reprints?

We cannot guarantee reprints. However, for a $20 fee you can submit a Reprint Request and we will attempt to obtain reprints from the seller for you. Keep in mind, the seller may not be able to obtain reprints and is under no obligation to do so.

Important: The $20 Reprint Request fee is not refundable, even if reprints cannot be obtained.

If the seller is able to obtain reprints, you are also responsible for any fees the seller incurs to obtain the reprints. An additional shipping charge may also apply.

For reprinted tickets:

  • Reprints must be issued for all tickets in the order.
  • Reprinted ticket orders are not covered by StubHub's FanProtect™ Guarantee.
  • All fees involved in obtaining reprints are non-refundable even if you find your original tickets.
  • Once reprinted, the original tickets are no longer valid. If you find them, we recommend that you destroy them to avoid any possible confusion.
  • There are no fees for reprints required due to a FedEx error.

To submit a Reprint Request, give us a call at 1.866.STUBHUB (1.866.788.2482).

Q: Can I cancel my order?
A:

Once you order tickets, a seller has 48 hours to confirm your order. You cannot cancel an order during this 48-hour period.

You can cancel an order that has remained unconfirmed for 48 hours or more until the seller confirms the order. Give us a call at 1.866.STUBHUB (1.866.788.2482). If you wish, we will contact the seller on your behalf to inquire about the unconfirmed order. Otherwise, we'll be happy to help you cancel the order - and look for comparable tickets!

Q: How can I find information about the venue, such as hours, if children need tickets, and how many rows are in a section?
A:

While viewing the list of tickets for an event, click the venue's name just below the name of the event to view the information we have for that venue.

For example, while viewing the list of tickets for an A's vs. Giants game at AT&T Park in San Francisco, click AT&T Park in San Francisco, CA just below "Oakland Athletics at San Francisco Giants Tickets" on the Event Page. The information we have about AT&T Park appears.

Note: We are not affiliated with any venues and the amount of information we have varies. In most cases, the venue's address and phone number are available.

Keep in mind that every venue is unique, with different policies, seating configurations, and hours of operation. We do our best to keep this information up to date, but even the rows and seating capacity for large venues change regularly and without notice. As just one example, Boston's Fenway Park has added over 5,000 seats since 2001. Since we have no venue affiliations, we're not always the first to know when changes have been made.

That's why contacting the venue directly is still the best way to get the most up-to-date and accurate information. Most venues have websites - so it's easy to find out the venue's contact information by simply typing the name of the venue into a search engine such as Google, Yahoo, or Ask.com.
