As soon as your tickets sell, we’ll send you an order notification email. Follow the link in the email to log in to your account and confirm the order – even if you no longer have the tickets. The Confirmation Options page appears.
Please confirm all orders within 48 hours. If your order remains unconfirmed for more than 48 hours from the time of your email notification, we may choose to cancel the order and find alternate tickets for the buyer. Failure to confirm orders may result in the closure of your account.
To confirm pending orders:
You can also confirm your orders directly from your StubHub account. If your web browser allows pop-ups, we’ll notify you of any orders awaiting confirmation when you log in. You’ll find any orders awaiting confirmation listed in the Pending Confirmation section of your account’s listings.
To confirm orders from your account:
When you confirm an order, it moves in your account from Pending Confirmation to Awaiting Shipment. The order remains in Awaiting Shipment status until it enters the FedEx tracking system.
You can list tickets not currently in your possession as long as you are absolutely certain you will have the tickets and be able to ship them to a buyer in time for the event. This is often the case for NBA, MLB, and NFL ticket holders, for example, whose tickets may not be printed until a few weeks before the start of the season.
As soon as your tickets sell, we’ll send you an order notification email. If you don’t have the tickets yet, but expect to receive them, follow the link in the email to log in to your account and confirm the order. The Confirmation Options page appears.
Very Important: Do not use this feature unless you are absolutely certainyou will receive the tickets within 2 weeks of the event. If you do not think you will receive the tickets in time to ship them to the buyer, read about Confirming That You Cannot Provide the Tickets for instructions.

If your expected shipping date changes, it is your responsibility to contact us so we can update your order and notify the buyer of the new shipping date.

Confirming That You Cannot Provide the Tickets
If you receive an order for tickets you no longer have or will not receive in time to ship to the buyer, you must inform us of your situation. The sooner you let us know, the better we can assist the buyer, which will, in turn, reduce the likelihood that you incur additional charges.
Follow the link in your order notification email to log in to your account and confirm that you cannot fulfill the order. The Confirmation Options page appears.
To confirm that you cannot provide the tickets:
You may continue to receive email reminders from StubHub while we work to find tickets that satisfy the buyer.
If you have indicated that you have substitute tickets to offer the buyer, we’ll contact you within 24 hours to obtain information about your substitute tickets. The substitute tickets you offer must be for the same event and on the same date as the tickets the buyer originally purchased.
Important: Keep your substitute ticket offer open for at least 24 hours and remain available at the phone number associated with your StubHub account.
Remember: A buyer is under no obligation to accept the replacements you offer and your sale may still be cancelled. Please do not list tickets that are not in your possession unless you are absolutely certain you will have them in time to ship them to the buyer.
If you have indicated that you cannot offer substitute tickets, we will review your account. If you have made this selection in error, contact us immediately at 1.866.STUBHUB (1.866.788.2482).
If you are having difficulty confirming an order, please refer to Confirming Orders for help. If you've followed the steps, but are still unable to confirm your order, give us a call at 1.866.STUBHUB (1.866.788.2482) or send us an email at customerservice@stubhub.com. We're happy to help.
We'll give you a pre-paid FedEx shipping label to use to ship your tickets. In most cases, the shipping label assigned to your order generates automatically when you confirm the order. However, when you confirm an order for tickets not “in hand,” the shipping label will generate on the shipping date you provide.

We're proud to be able to feature some of the most sought-after tickets to the biggest, most celebrated events on the continent. Events that used to be impossible to get into – the Super Bowl, World Series, and Masters Golf Tournament, to name a few - are now available through reliable, guaranteed interactions between buyers and sellers in the StubHub marketplace.
Because of the increased market value of these tickets, we may implement additional security measures for certain Big Ticket events. If added security measures are in place, we'll let you know in the notes on the Event Page and by email when you place an order or create a listing.
Since every event is different, the security measures put in place will vary from time to time. However, if you're buying tickets to a Big Ticket event, the additional security measures will usually include:
Again, security measures will vary by event. However, if you're selling tickets to a Big Ticket event, the additional security measures will usually include:
We realize that these are big events that offer once-in-a-lifetime experiences. No matter how you look at it, these purchases or sales are important to the fans using the StubHub marketplace. We will do everything we can to make sure these exchanges go smoothly, and taking these precautions will help us provide the level of guarantee you need and have come to expect from us. The additional security measures are in the best interest of everyone – buyers, sellers, and yes, us too!
We are pleased to be able to facilitate the exchange of tickets between sellers and buyers. However, these exchanges are transactions solely between the buyers and sellers of tickets. Although we always encourage respectful, civil behavior in accordance with venue rules and local, state, and federal laws, we cannot guarantee fans' behavior and are in no way liable for any fines, penalties, or other consequences of fans' behavior at events.
