StubHub Holdings, Inc. operates a global secondary ticketing marketplace, facilitating the exchange of tickets for live sports, concerts, and theater performances. The company utilizes a dual-brand strategy through its StubHub and viagogo platforms to provide liquidity and price discovery for consumers and resellers in the live events space.
The business model relies on a platform-as-a-service approach, generating revenue primarily through transaction fees charged to both buyers and sellers upon a successful sale. As part of the Interactive Media & Services sub-industry, the company competes in a sector where network effects are critical, as a higher volume of listings typically attracts a larger user base.

It maintains a significant presence in the international resale market, navigating varying regional regulations regarding ticket scalping and consumer protection laws.
