Overview
How do teams compare face value with resale?
Capture your own event on its primary page (Ticketmaster or a box office such as Paciolan, ProVenue, GoFevo, Telecharge, Broadway Direct, ATG Tickets, Cirque du Soleil, Vegas.com, and Spotlight.Vegas) and capture the same event on each resale marketplace. Both come back in one schema, so section 110 on the box office lines up with section 110 on resale.
The primary capture shows the seats still on sale and their published prices. The resale captures show what sellers ask for the same sections. Where resale sits above face value, demand is outrunning your price; where it sits below, the market is telling you something too.
On October 18, 2026, we captured one Eagles at Sphere date (December 11) on seven marketplaces within about a minute. Ticketmaster had 52 primary listings for 161 tickets, with a get-in price of $303.08 all-in. Six resale marketplaces had 3,189 listings for 12,745 tickets, and the cheapest resale ticket was $385 on TickPick.

FAQ
Ticket Data for Teams and Venues questions
How can a team compare its face value prices against resale for every game?
List the season's dates with the free event catalog, then capture each date on the primary page and on each resale marketplace. Match sections across the captures and compare the primary price with the resale asks.
How do I track how much primary inventory is left, section by section?
Capture the primary event page on a schedule and count the primary listings and seats in each section. Where the venue's map has seats, venueLayout gives each section's capacity to compare against.
Which primary ticketing systems are supported?
Ticketmaster, plus these box offices and primary sellers: Paciolan, ProVenue, GoFevo, Telecharge, Broadway Direct, ATG Tickets, Cirque du Soleil, Vegas.com, and Spotlight.Vegas. Each returns primary seats at the published price, with named rows and seats where the system shows them.
Does it show tickets already sold?
No. It shows what is on sale. Seats that leave the primary market may have been sold or held, so count them as no longer on sale rather than sold.
Can I see resale for my events without scraping each marketplace myself?
Yes. Send each marketplace's event URL to the capture API and get the same JSON back from all of them. Tickets.dev runs the browsers and parsers.
