Buy and Sell Tickets at Viagogo

viagogo.gifViagogo.co.uk is a leading ticket hub in Europe. There are many types of websites that are U.S based, but I have yet to see one for outside the states. With millions of dollars, or in this case Euro’s changing hands over huge events like sport games and concerts, it’s a great business.

Registration and Selling

The format of this website is nice and easy. Registration is easy and literally takes only a minute. After registering you can then buy and sell your tickets. That includes sports, like Football Tickets and Rugby Tickets, as well as concert tickets. By searching the categories you can find the particular event that you want.

What I couldn’t find easily was what rates they offer, etc. Most ticket sites will take 1-10% of the selling price, or it will cost you to list your tickets. As far as I can tell it’s free, however I don’t know how that would be profitable for them.

If I am comparing websites on which ticket places I want to use, I want to find a place where I can get the most for my tickets. Not knowing their rates could be a problem.

Not Just in Europe

After being on the website for a while, I found at the very bottom of the page that they have ticket listings for the US as well. I doubt I am going to be searching for Cricket Tickets in Europe, so I was happy to see even more variety.

Going back to the main page I did discover a small and annoying pop-up that told me they had U.S listings. Being blind to those I automatically close them. I’d definitely emphasize on the main page they have list tickets in different countries. I can see why Viagogo is successful and I would definitely give them a shot.

Buy and sell live event tickets in a safe and guaranteed way at viagogo.

      Not free, they charge 15% from the seller and 10% from the buyer, a net total of 25% for a single transaction, aside from the shipping costs. Quite a hefty cut if you ask me.
