SpareSpot is a resale marketplace and is not the primary provider of tickets or spots. Prices are set by sellers and may be higher or lower than the original face value.
Selling
Selling on SpareSpot
Free to list, always. Set your price (or open it up to offers), and we'll connect you with a buyer. Once your spot sells, your funds are held securely until after the event date. Under £100 releases 48 hours post-event. £100 and over releases 72 hours post-event. You will receive a notification when your funds are available to withdraw.
Red flags to watch for
- Buyer asks for ticket details before paying
- Being pushed to move to WhatsApp or bank transfer
- Fake payment screenshots or claims of payment sent
Selling e-tickets?
You can still transfer tickets through the official provider (Ticketmaster, AXS, See Tickets, Twickets etc.) — that's the normal, safe way to move e-tickets. Just keep the conversation and the payment inside SpareSpot. The tickets move via the provider; the money moves through us. Never arrange payment outside the app, or you both lose buyer and seller protection.
How SpareSpot protects you
- Stripe holds the buyer's payment until after the event
- Funds release 48–72 hours after the event date, by transaction value
- Reported users are blocked, support team on hand
- Free to list — we only take a small fee from the buyer, never from you
