SeatQuest is a visual search engine for event tickets that helps ticket buyers save time and money.
We aggregate data from popular secondary ticket marketplaces but also connect users directly to hundreds of ticket brokers. All ticket data is shown from a custom-built, interactive venue map for each event.
In addition to the comparison meta-search and detailed venue maps, SeatQuest's direct-to-seller feed drastically reduces or eliminates all fees that are typical in this industry. The result is a much cheaper ticket for the fans!
More About Us:
SeatQuest is a technology company focused on improving the ticket-buying experience and transparency in the secondary market through our Visual Search Engine for sports, concert, and theater tickets. Our disruptive approach includes leading interactive venue map technology, a ticket aggregation and comparison engine, and a low-to-no fee business model.
First, we believe in the value of checking multiple ticket sites before making a purchase. This can be a painstaking process, but SeatQuest has made this easy by aggregating ticket data from multiple secondary marketplaces and over a hundred different ticket brokers. The info is all displayed on one easy-to-use venue map that can be further filtered to fit your specific needs. Furthermore, our system can recognize when the same exact ticket is for sale on multiple websites. We will only display the cheapest ticket in our interface, but will also show you where else the ticket is available. For additional transparency, SeatQuest has added in the applicable service and checkout fees from each provider to help you make an apples to apples comparison of final ticket prices.
Secondly, we believe that the fees at other popular ticket marketplaces are too high and, you as a consumer, are paying for that. We continue to show their tickets on our site, but to alleviate this issue SeatQuest has compiled its own ticket feed to provide you access directly to the underlying sellers. And because we go directly to the same sellers that list on many of the other secondary marketplaces, coupled with our own low-to-no fee model, SeatQuest direct tickets will often be a significantly cheaper option for you.
Lastly, one of our strengths is in our venue mapping technology. SeatQuest is the only company in the secondary ticket market to have seat-level granularity in every one of our venue maps. We have close to 4,000 unique venue configurations across North America and have a data entry team responsible for monitoring the secondary market and matching each new event with the most up-to-date venue layout. This fits our tagline of Know Where You Sit.
As we move forward SeatQuest will be launching additional initiatives, expanding our site, and further improving the ticket buying experience. Our ability to continue to offer such great deals is dependent on our growth and visitors helping to spread the word about SeatQuest. Please take advantage of our current promotion and register using Facebook Connect before January 1, 2011 to receive access to 0% fees on all SeatQuest direct tickets for one year.
