About StubHub Holdings, Inc.
About StubHub Holdings, Inc.
StubHub Holdings runs a two-brand global secondary ticketing marketplace — StubHub in the U.S., Canada, and roughly 25 additional territories per a 2025 CMA-approved amendment, and viagogo operating elsewhere under an exclusive intellectual property license — employing approximately 900 full-time staff as of December 31, 2025. The platform serves individual fans, professional sellers, and content rights holders across sports, concerts, and theater, with key employee hubs in New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Ireland, and Switzerland.
StubHub earns transaction fees from buyers and sellers on its marketplace, with revenue tied to the frequency, scale, and popularity of live events. The company relies heavily on internet search engines, including Google, to generate buyer traffic; in 2019, Google temporarily suspended viagogo from its paid search results for alleged advertising policy violations, causing a significant decline in viagogo's GMS. Third-party mobile distribution platforms — principally the Apple App Store and Google Play Store — are the primary channels for application downloads, and any change in their terms may limit distribution or impose commissions. Competition spans secondary ticketing peers and original issuance providers that have entered secondary markets, with certain competitors holding exclusive booking rights with specific venues or events. The company faces incremental pressure from original issuance providers offering demand-based dynamic pricing, which reduces the incentive for professional brokers to use secondary markets.
Show full overview
StubHub's regulatory exposure spans multiple jurisdictions, including anti-scalping statutes restricting resale in certain markets and the FTC's all-in pricing rule implemented in the United States in May 2025. The company previously settled with certain U.S. state attorneys general over COVID-19 refund practices. The U.K. CMA accepted the company's trademark license amendment in June 2025, allowing StubHub-branded operations in approximately 25 additional markets; non-compliance with evolving ticketing laws in any jurisdiction could subject the company to further enforcement actions or operational restrictions.
