Marketplace layer

Safe resale beats chaotic social media every time

The marketplace turns sold-out demand into something useful. Buyers get a legitimate transfer path. Committees keep control. The platform learns where demand is overflowing across May Week.

Why it matters

For buyers

The official route is safer, clearer, and less exploitative than buying from strangers.

For committees

Demand does not vanish when tickets sell out. The marketplace is where that demand becomes visible.

For buyers

A legitimate way into high-demand events

  • Official resale rather than stranger-to-stranger DMs.
  • Face-value friendly transfers and a clear chain of ownership.
  • Waitlists and availability signals that reduce panic refresh behaviour.
  • A safer route into sold-out events when plans change on either side.
For committees

A post-sellout layer that still teaches you something

  • Protects guests from scams and duplicated tickets.
  • Keeps name changes and resale inside the system of record.
  • Creates demand signals that future committees can actually use.
  • Turns overflow demand into actionable insight rather than anecdote.

Demand signals

See where demand is going

When a buyer misses out on one ball and lands at another, that tells you something real about how guests choose between events. Waitlist and resale data helps committees understand demand they'd otherwise never see.
