What BoxOfficeTicketSales does

BoxOfficeTicketSales (operating as Box Office Ticket Sales and BoxOfficeTicketSales.com) is a US-based online ticket resale marketplace founded in 2012 and headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska. The platform connects individual ticket buyers with verified sellers across approximately 125,000 live events spanning concerts, sports, theater, comedy, and family entertainment. Since launch, the company reports serving more than 1 million customers, with category breadth covering MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, MLS, NCAA, NASCAR, WWE, Broadway, and major music festivals and tours.

The platform is built around three core product surfaces: (1) an interactive seat-mapping marketplace allowing real-time browsing of seat locations and price comparison across venues, (2) a verified ticket listing system with authenticity guarantees backed by TrustGuard 24/7 security monitoring and SSL-encrypted checkout, and (3) digital ticket delivery via email or mobile entry before event dates. Payment options include major credit cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, and Affirm installment financing. The company holds BBB Business Review accreditation and operates as an MLB Authorized Ticket Marketplace.

BoxOfficeTicketSales generates revenue through marketplace commissions on resale transactions, with prices determined dynamically by event demand, venue, and seat location. The company operates a self-serve direct-to-consumer model with phone and chat support as supplemental channels. Marketing relies on organic SEO, a content blog covering city-specific event guides, and organic social media presence across Facebook, Instagram, X, TikTok, and YouTube. The company is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, no parent company, no leadership team listings in source material, and no M&A activity. Headcount is reported at 51-100 employees.
