See Tickets is the consumer-facing brand of Ticketcorner AG, a Swiss online event ticketing platform operating at starticket.ch. The platform enables end consumers to discover, select, and purchase digital tickets for live events across Switzerland, covering concerts, festivals, parties, theater, sports, and special events. It supports four languages (German, French, Italian, English) and lists events across all major Swiss cities including Zürich, Basel, Bern, Lausanne, Geneva, Luzern, St. Gallen, and Winterthur. The company also extends its offering beyond traditional event ticketing into private cinema experiences via the 'Personal Ciné' product at Pathé Kinos, and operates a dedicated B2B portal (b2b.ticketcorner.ch) that provides event organizers with ticketing infrastructure and sales management tools.

Underlying the consumer and organizer surfaces is a standard e-commerce ticketing architecture: a multi-language web application for event discovery and transaction processing, a separate shop/checkout subdomain for cart and account management, and a B2B subdomain for organizer-side listing and sales tooling. No proprietary AI/ML features, API platform, mobile app, or patent portfolio is disclosed in the source data.

See Tickets generates revenue primarily through transaction fees on ticket sales completed via the starticket.ch platform, serving two customer segments: individual event-goers (the primary segment) on a self-serve, pay-as-you-go basis, and event organizers and venues (a secondary segment) using the B2B platform to distribute and manage ticket inventory. The company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of CTS Eventim AG & Co. KGaA, a publicly listed German live entertainment and ticketing conglomerate that reported EUR 3.1 billion in FY2025 group revenue. As a regional Swiss market subsidiary within CTS Eventim's European footprint, See Tickets' strategic positioning is shaped by the parent's international expansion, with roughly two-thirds of the parent's ticket volume generated outside Germany.
