what's up guys welcome back I know a lot
of you like to buy tickets using StubHub
so today I want to make you buy tickets
on StubHub like a pro well let's get
into it
the most important thing is definitely
to use the StubHub map reason I say that
is because there are a lot of features
on the app that are semi integrated are
mostly integrated into the webpage but
getting to use all the features on the
website isn't as easy or as intuitive as
you may think so definitely use the app
to begin your search so with that being
said let's dive into it and make you a
StubHub ticket buying pro so first off
when you're going into actually finding
the different events you want what you
can try and do is actually try and type
out the actual team name or the event
name that's in full and then what you
can do from there is once it actually
lists up the different options you can
actually dive into a filtered version of
that specific team so for example if
looking for the Ottawa Senators can go
ahead and type in your auto our Senators
and you'll get a few different listing
options right there
I don't if you scroll down you'll see
there's a whole bunch of different
things whatever has that tag of no
Ottawa so for example you can see
they're always different other types of
Ottawa events but what we're looking for
specifically is Ottawa Senators so what
we can see right at the top I actually
of it favorited already I can go ahead
click the Ottawa Senators link there and
what it'll do is I'll actually bring you
to a filtered page with the home and
away games so one great way of being
able to kind of filter through and don't
get to what you need is actually
starting your search off right to make
sure that you are finding what it is you
want and only two things you want now
when you have something for the event
that you want to buy for this is where
the fun really begins so when you get a
ticket buying event page you'll see
default kind of search settings set up
and they usually have it under best
value and a lot of times the filters
that are sent is best available doesn't
actually mean best available to you it's
just whatever the algorithm or stuff
popping has decided to be best available
for the overall masses just because they
decide it's the best doesn't mean you
think it's the best and vice versa so
what I do is I like to search either by
price or by row price if you just won
against the building or you want to be a
specific section and don't really care
about the row too much or if you went up
she gets you know best seating in a
specific area that's where you want to
be searching by row this way we can
exclude all the things we don't want to
see and get right down to the
nitty-gritty specific seats that we want
to buy now when you're searching by row
you also generally want to speed a
specific section so what you can do on
the soil
is actually start clicking individual
sections to get the filters to only look
in those specific areas now clicking all
these different sections can be a bit
monotonous you'll click click click
click click or you however fast your
thumbs are moving these days basically
you can do that that one way or the
other way is actually this little
elliptical ellipses zip ellipses three
dots click the whole free dot button and
what it'll do is will actually open up a
little search bar for you or something
let you search by zone or by section you
click the zone button what you'll see is
it actually select everything within
that same type of seating class zone so
whether it's you know sidelines or end
zones or you know n glass seeds what
it's gonna do is basically just find
everything that cell has already kind of
filtered in that same type of seating
area and they'll basically lump it
together and that will be your new
search now if you're in a searching area
and you want to start removing specific
sections within it you can actually go
ahead and start tapping on those on the
map and it'll actually then exclude them
from your search great way to be able to
find exactly what it is you're looking
for now when you actually opened up the
specific event page you saw that it had
a few filter options right then and
there
but if you just go ahead and okay and
they'll just disappear and now it's not
like oh how do I get back to only
finding three seats at this price that
this location and this and this and this
all these different kind of variables
what you can actually go in and do is
actually go through the different filter
options and within there we can get into
a bit more specific so whether it's
specific number of seats certain price
point you're looking at or if it's even
a specific type of ticket that you're
looking for now whether it's a mobile
ticket or a hard stock ticket or
something that's available instantly for
download all these options are available
to you and you can actually sort by them
within the filter options right then and
there but if you're gonna be giving a
gift for Christmas sometimes it's nice
to have those hard stock tickets but
unfortunately some events don't actually
offer the different stuff types so for
example a lot of venues are now moving
towards the mobile ticketing and so a
lot of times they're actually phasing
out the
stop traditional tickets you can go
ahead try and do a filter search on it
but what you're gonna find is when you
have to start doing that search you're
gonna lose a lot of inventory so a lot
of times you may be out of luck with
trying to get specific parts of tickets
however it doesn't mean you can't try it
the filter is there you can go ahead and
turn it on turn it off very very simple
now
with these different filters there's one
there that I think you should pay very
close attention to and that is the
parking pass included option a lot of
times it's great when you're going to
buy tickets and you see the parking
prices already included into the ticket
and you can get altogether great one low
price blah blah blah fantastic however
however what you're gonna find though is
that a lot of times tickets don't
actually have parking passes included
with it and so by turning on this filter
your yes you'll see some options which
are available to you which have the
parking pass included already and it's
built into that price but what's gonna
happen is you actually gonna lose a lot
of you trattoria it's available to you
the best way to work around this twofold
first way is actually to go back and
search for that event or a parking event
specifically so for example with the
house errors they do have specific
parking pass options as a separate event
item for the same days so you go ahead
and look through there but the other
option is probably the more recommended
option is actually nice using some up at
all going directly to the venue seeing
if they have it available online as a
prepay option or sometimes even the
events will have parking available to
you when you actually show up to the
door so go ahead take a look and see
you'll play around with the filters see
what is available what is it if there
are listings available which have the
parking pass included a ticket price
that you want great go ahead buy those
tickets if they don't though don't fret
don't feel that you're limited to only
the parking past included options
available on the ticket page now this
next one is a great one for anyone's
trying to be lazy if you have specific
ticket price in mind in a specific zone
you're looking for in a certain quantity
what you can do is go ahead and send a
ticket price alert so if you take a look
in the app you click on the top right
there's a little option there click it
open it up it'll open up a whole new set
of options for you and what you'll see
here is actually setting a ticket alert
what it'll do is it will basically say
ok put in your specific options that
you're looking for whether it's an
exceeding zone whether it's specific
price and then you can go ahead hit save
what's it gonna do it's gonna send you
an email or it'll send it to Bruno
good app whenever the alert hits what
its gonna do is it'll actually then take
a look and take its time whenever the
event has tickets available at your
specific price alert that you've set
what it's gonna do send you that alert I
can go ahead and then start browsing
through the different options that are
there in the email it'll actually list
out a few of the different options that
exist only thing with the alerts though
is that because the ticket inventory is
dynamic and live just because you get an
alert does not always mean that same
ticket will be available when you go
into the app to actually buy it
also because alerts are not
instantaneous there's obviously gonna be
a delay and then again same thing if the
dealer comes in doesn't watch me the
tickets available but it is a good way
to see if ticket prices are moving in a
certain direction now the last tip and
probably the best tip is to never buy
the ticket through the app now you may
be thinking this is so odd I went
through all these different phases for
searching for tickets filtering tickets
trying to find them in the app
everything was there but then I say stop
why do I say stop because you're not
maximizing the amount of money you could
be saving what do you mean so if you
take a look at Rakatan or other cashback
type portals what you'll see is that
they're able to give you additional cash
back on top of your purchase what does
this mean these would be saving
additional money on actually buying
these tickets so what do I recommend I
use racks and a lot I find it's very
intuitive and very easy just make sure
you don't have any ad blockers turn on
definitely go in click through and it's
very simple so if you take a look right
now on their website they have two point
five percent cash back on all your
purchases what you can do is go ahead
buy through their affiliate link direct
you back to StubHub you'll go ahead
login pay for the tickets just like you
normally would but now instead of paying
you know $100 for those two tickets
you're also getting back an additional
two dollars and fifty cents a no-brainer
when you think about it it's just free
money that they're trying to give you so
like I said always make sure you go
through the cashback pour before buying
tickets on StubHub this way you'll be
able to save additional money now I have
my affiliate link listed in the
description below if you go ahead and
click there you'll actually get an
additional five dollars for signing up
when you make your first purchase a lot
of details are all there you can go
ahead and take a look check it out if
you're all about saving that free money
definitely go ahead and do it so this
kind of covers everything we want to
talk about before using stuff up like a
pro if you're much
how to use different tips just reach out
in the comments I'll be sure to get back
to you if you subscribed yet make sure

I'm gonna be doing an entire deep dive
into the whole ticket buying process on
how to actually go ahead and find
tickets that you want how to evaluate
them how to make sure you get the best
value possible and to make sure that
you're always at the events that you
want to be at in I'll see you guys
