TicketSmarter Partners

TicketSmarter has been proactive in creating partnerships that ensure fans have exclusive access to tickets that you won’t find through our competitors. We have created partnerships with leaders in live sports including the Big Ten Conference, Pioneer Baseball League and Professional Fighters League.

We have also established venue partnerships with Rose Bowl Stadium and Sam Houston Race Park, as well as several MLB Spring Training facilities like Goodyear Ballpark and Surprise Stadium to ensure we learn and grow with the entertainment and sports industries.  

Through a partnership with Social House Entertainment, TicketSmarter also provides primary ticketing for music festivals like Country Stampede, Tacos & Tequila and Country Roots.

Is TicketSmarter affiliated with Ticketmaster?

TicketSmarter is not affiliated with Ticketmaster, AXS, Live Nation or Eventbrite. As a secondary ticket marketplace, TicketSmarter is a valuable resource for people who may have missed the initial sales window from primary vendors or those who might need to resell their tickets because of a scheduling conflict. Tickets are typically listed on TicketSmarter’s site as soon as they go on sale and are sold through the start of the event.  

Who owns TicketSmarter?

TicketSmarter began as a small, family-owned business in Overland Park, KS. Over time, the company has expanded to offer primary and secondary ticketing solutions for events and venues across the country. 

In 2021, TicketSmarter became part of the Digital Ally Companies (NASDAQ: DGLY) which will allow us to expand our service even further in the coming years.
