Why Ticketmaster's Verified Fan System Is Causing Major Panic for Taylor Swift Fans—and How to Find Tickets
Summary by NewsWall Apr 19 23
- According to Ticketmaster, Verified Fan has been able to counteract resellers who raise prices following presales.
- "For big events, more than 30 percent of tickets might end up being resold," said Ticketmaster executive president David Marcus to POPSUGAR.
- The Eras tour tickets went on presale on November 15, and the Ticketmaster website collapsed 30 minutes before the sale was set to begin.
- Despite the fact that the new method was designed to make the ticket-buying process more efficient, many fans are reporting that they are unable to get validated and hence cannot access the presale.
