StubHub was founded in 2000 to give consumers an alternative option for buying and selling tickets. StubHub was created in recognition of the vast need for improvement within the ticket buying and selling marketplace. Often times after tickets were initially sold out through traditional channels, consumers were left at the mercy of a secondary market which was far less concerned about their needs than the strict proposition of gaining a profit. The existing options presented the all too common risks of counterfeiting, fraud, subterfuge and pricing subject to the whims of the seller.
Since its beginning, StubHub has provided first class service for the secondary ticket market. Millions of tickets are bought and sold second hand every year. Some estimates declare that as much as $10 billion is spent annually in the U.S. secondary ticket sales market. There is an unquestionable demand and limitless opportunity for the services that StubHub provides to the ticket buying and selling public.
StubHub boasts a growth rate of over 3,000 percent from 2002 - 2005. StubHub is ranked among the 10 fastest growing private companies in America on Inc. Magazine's annual "Inc. 500" list. Within the Retail sector, StubHub finished as the Inc. 500 top company overall.
