No. TixTracer compares listings from Ticketmaster and SeatGeek and sends you to whichever one you choose to actually complete a purchase. TixTracer never handles payment, delivery, or ticket issuance.
Right now, it doesn't. There are no affiliate or advertising partnerships in place yet. If that changes, it'll be disclosed clearly on the Trust & Transparency page.
No. Prices are pulled from Ticketmaster's and SeatGeek's own data at the time you search, but final price, fees, and availability are set by whichever site you buy from and can change before you check out there.
Ticketmaster and SeatGeek today. More sources may be added as access allows.
A 1–10 rating comparing a listing's price against other sources for the same event and its own price history, from "Overpriced" up to "Exceptional Deal." Full breakdown on the Trust & Transparency page.
When Ticketmaster or SeatGeek don't return real pricing for an event, TixTracer can fill in clearly-labeled sample numbers rather than leaving the page blank. Anything tagged this way isn't a real price. It's there so you can still see how the layout and comparison would look.
Set a target price on any event you're tracking, and TixTracer emails you if it drops to or below that number. You'll only get an email for alerts you set up yourself.
No. Tracked events and recent searches are saved right in your browser. Setting a price alert just needs an email address to send that one alert to, nothing else.
TixTracer doesn't add any fees of its own. Any service fees or taxes come from whichever marketplace you buy from, and show up on their checkout page, not here.
TixTracer only helps you evaluate options. Every purchase happens directly on Ticketmaster's or SeatGeek's own site, under their own security and buyer protections.
