We have asked the company for details on what cut - if any - it takes from ticket sales, and how this differs from affiliate fees it earns from its third-party ticketing partnerships, but it didn’t share any information about it. It also mentions that it can be selling tickets on behalf of “third parties which can include venues, event promoters, fan clubs, and artists, as their disclosed ticketing agent”.
The Spotify ticketing site’s legal section says that the company only acts as a ticketing agent and takes a booking fee. The firm didn’t share any information about plans to list directly ticketed events on the Live Events page and artists’ pages. While currently events listed on the Spotify Tickets site are not available on the Live events page, the company’s support page says: “Some tickets listed there are available for purchase directly from Spotify.” Tickets directly sold through Spotify are also not currently listed on the artist page. With the launch of its ticketing platform, this may change. Until now, Spotify used its ticketing partners like Ticketmaster, AXS, DICE, Eventbrite and See Tickets to list these events for ticket booking, it used to link out to these partners from the event page. The company revamped its in-app live event discovery page in June with better gig discovery for events around the user’s local area. Currently, the company is focused on pre-sales more than primary sales of the ticket. We have no further news to share on future plans at this time,” the company said in a statement to TechCrunch. Some of those end up paving the path for our broader user experience and others serve only as important learnings. “At Spotify, we routinely test new products and ideas to improve our user experience. Currently, the Spotify Tickets site lists gigs for artists like Limbeck, Crow, Annie DiRusso, Four Years Strong and TOKiMONSTA that are performing in the U.S. The site lists gigs that are available to book on the home page, and under the My events section, users can see their past and upcoming ticket bookings. The company hasn’t officially announced the launch of its ticketing platform, but Chris Messina first noted the site being available for the public to book tickets earlier today. The company’s new website lists upcoming concerts and lets users purchase tickets to these shows through debit or credit card users need to have a Spotify account to buy tickets, though. Spotify has launched a new site to sell fans tickets to live gigs directly from its platform instead of redirecting users to partners like Ticketmaster and Eventbrite.
