TickPick Puts Competitive Marketplaces on Notice with New Affiliate Program Managed Through Industry Leader CJ Affiliate by Conversant

NEW YORK, Nov. 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- TickPick, the no-fee ticket, announced today it has created a new affiliate program with CJ Affiliate by Conversant (formerly Commission Junction). The TickPick affiliate program offers considerable benefits compared to competitive programs including a longer tracking cookie length, higher average orders, and TickPick's smooth user experience. Current CJ Affiliate by Conversant partners can easily add TickPick to their accounts and new affiliates can quickly start earning commissions through the company's simple sign-up process. 

"The commission rates of other ticket marketplaces are a little higher because they are charging the end customer a ridiculous amount of fees," said CEO and cofounder Brett Goldberg. "Our customers are saving money by purchasing cheaper tickets, which combines with our exemplary service to build great brand loyalty. This dynamic translates into amazing conversion rates as well as repeat sales for affiliates, who can be confident they're referring their readers and visitors to the best ticket marketplace."

Highlights of the TickPick affiliate program include:

• A high average order value of $275 for considerable earning potential for affiliates
• A 45-day tracking cookie and commissions on all sales received during this timeframe – compared to the 30-day tracking offered by competitors
• TickPick's industry-leading user experience featuring in-house customer support that will provide guidance on maximizing affiliate revenue
• Various promotional offers and attractive creative resources
• Every customer purchase occurs online – even if they call into the TickPick support line

"We're launching this affiliate program due to Commission Junction's proven ability to run a transparent ad platform that will provide our affiliates with attractive pricing and conversion rates," continued Goldberg. "We see this program as an exciting way to increase our customer base and our marketing reach through well-trafficked websites and blogs. Our affiliate program will stand apart from those offered by our competitors due to our higher conversions and the greater likelihood of repeat purchasing. We'll attract new affiliate partners because of our simply better business model which involves not charging buyer's fees for ticket transactions." 

The only secondary ticket marketplace without buyer's fees, TickPick offers a simplified transaction without hidden fees or commissions. Sellers pay a flat 10% fee, which is a stark contrast to the 25% or more in total fees charged by competitive services such as StubHub or SeatGeek. TickPick offers a streamlined website and app-based transaction process that allows users to seamlessly buy and sell tickets to the latest events.

About TickPick:
Founded in 2011, TickPick is reshaping the secondary event ticket marketplace with its no-fees approach. The company does not charge any fees for buyers, setting it apart from competitive firms which charge steep transaction fees. It also leverages its algorithms to look at the price/value ratio for tickets, and then offers value grading for buyers so they can get the optimal experience for their money. Users can also bid on tickets in a process that is similar to financial markets where supply and demand create a more efficient marketplace.

The company was recently named as a Technology Fast 500 award winner for 2017, a Deloitte-sponsored award for the fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences and energy tech companies in North America. TickPick was also selected as a Crain's New York Business Fast 50. For the second year in a row the company has been named to the Inc. 5000 list as one of the fastest-growing companies in America. 

TickPick was founded by Co-CEO's Christopher O'Brien and Brett Goldberg who saw inefficiencies in the ticket marketplace and decided to build a more transparent and cost-effective solution. For more information, visit www.tickpick.com
