StubHub

StubHub is a global online ticket marketplace that allows users to buy and sell tickets to events such as sports games, concerts, theater productions, and more. The company was founded in 2000 by Eric Baker and Chris Saadian and was originally named StubHub after a phrase Baker used when trying to sell his Stanford football tickets.

StubHub is headquartered in San Francisco, California, and has become one of the largest ticket marketplaces in the world. The company allows users to purchase tickets from other fans who are unable to attend events, and also provides a platform for fans to sell tickets they no longer need. StubHub takes a commission on each sale, and also provides a refund guarantee if the event is canceled or postponed.

The company has experienced rapid growth and expansion since its inception, and has become a subsidiary of eBay in 2007. In 2014, StubHub became an independent company once again after being spun off from eBay. StubHub offers a wide range of features and tools to make ticket buying and selling easier and more convenient, including mobile apps, online marketplaces, and customer support.

StubHub's business model relies on providing a unique and useful service to fans and event organizers. The company works with a wide range of events and partners to provide tickets to events, and has become a trusted and well-established brand in the industry. Today, StubHub is a global leader in the ticket resale market, with a strong online presence and a reputation for fairness and customer satisfaction.
