Are your team's season tickets getting too expensive and none of your friends can afford to join your squad? Or are you a die-hard fan of your team but the crazy economy means that a full season is out of reach?
Introducing the StubSquad Marketplace, the only place online matching season ticket holders and season ticket wanters!
The path to get to this point
We've been working hard on this feature for several weeks now, with JT streaming a lot of the work on it. If you're interested in the actual building process, you can check those streams out here:
- Starting to build out the season ticket marketplace
- Continuing to build out the marketplace
- Making the marketplace available to admins
- Let's (almost) finish building the marketplace
- Setting up Laravel Cashier w/ Stripe
Got an open slot?
The StubSquad Marketplace is a new way to share your favorite sports games, by giving season admins the ability to list open slots in their squad. It's a quick and easy way to find new people to join your squad, meaning you get to stay a season ticket holder and continue supporting your team!
Looking to join a squad?
If you're looking to join a squad, the StubSquad Marketplace is the place to go. Squads with open slots are looking for people just like you to join their group and split the cost of their season tickets.
How it works (seller)
- Sign up for a StubSquad account
- Create a new season
- Invite your current squad
- From the administration panel, choose to list your season on the Marketplace
Now all you need to do is decide is how much a new squad member has to pay and fill out some other details about where the seats are located in the venue, and any other details that might be important.
If anyone is interested in joining your squad, you will get an email notification letting you know, and you can work out the details directly with them.
It's that simple!
How it works (squad member)
- Sign up for a free StubSquad account
- Head over to the StubSquad Marketplace
- Search for an open slot
- Click the Contact button
The administrator of that season will get an email letting them know you're interested and if they decide they want to talk to you more, they'll receive your email address and you can work out the details directly with them.
It's that simple!
Conclusion
We are really looking forward to those admins with empty slots listing their seasons on the marketplace and we hope that you'll join us in the marketplace soon!
