The Seahawks today announced a new partnership with TicketManager, a global leader in the tickets and guest experience spaces, to become the team’s Official Corporate Ticket Management Partner. Under the partnership, TicketManager will offer its proprietary software – at no cost – to the Seattle Seahawks Suite Owners, Corporate Partners and Premium Season Ticket Members to transfer and track their tickets for not only Seahawks games, but for sporting and entertainment events throughout the Seattle market. This will thereby enable participants to consolidate their operations and eliminate the hassle of multiple accounts, logins and passwords.
TicketManager technology will identify unused tickets across the Seattle sports and entertainment scene, expedite mobile transfers and generate real-time scan reports. In addition, the Seahawks’ corporate clients will be able to resell tickets, through TicketManager’s exclusive partnership with Ticketmaster to recover value from seats that would have otherwise gone unused.
“We’re excited to partner with the Seattle Seahawks to help companies get the most out of their investment in sports and entertainment events,” said Tony Knopp, CEO and Co-Founder of TicketManager. “We are in important times for companies that use sports tickets for customers and partners. Our partnership with the Seahawks will help companies continue to invest in sports and entertainment tickets, which are vital for growing and maintaining business.”
Executive Consultant Michael Goldstein, who previously led sponsorships across North America for Mastercard, negotiated the deal on TicketManager’s behalf.
