How a Lock Works: Giving Fans Flexibility, Not FOMO
In sports, timing is everything. A split-second call, a buzzer-beater, a penalty kick, and for fans, often the same goes for tickets. The current sports ticketing system leaves fans stuck with two bad options. They can either chase early presales and lotteries, where even a win might leave them holding seats to a disappointing matchup or scrambling to resell if plans change. Or they can wait until the matchup is confirmed and face sky-high resale prices.
That’s the broken model fans have lived with for years. But what if there were a smarter way to plan for sports’ biggest moments?
Enter TicketLock! A simple yet powerful shift in how fans access high-stakes games.
The Solution: A Lock, Not a Gamble
A Lock flips the model. It’s not a ticket, it’s a reservation that puts control back in the hands of fans. It gives you the right, but not the obligation, to purchase a ticket to a specific game at guaranteed price, if your desired matchup occurs. You’re no longer gambling on whether your team will make it, you’re reserving your shot without committing to the wrong game or the wrong price.
Let’s break it down.
Step 1: Pick Your Matchup and Buy a Lock
Choose the exact matchup you want to see. For example, Alcaraz vs Djokovic in the French Open Final. You are not buying a ticket to the event. You are buying a Lock on that specific matchup, which gives you the right to buy a ticket at a guaranteed price if the matchup is set.
Step 2: Buy the Ticket at a Guaranteed Price
A Lock is a small non-refundable fee that reserves your spot. If your matchup occurs, you receive an email with a link to buy your ticket at the original face value. There are no markups, no inflated resale prices, and no surprises. If the matchup does not happen, you only lose the fee, not hundreds on a ticket to a game you did not want.
Why Fans Love It
No more panic buying early-round tickets “just in case”
No more waiting until the last minute and getting gouged on resale platforms
No more uncertainty about whether you’ll see the players or teams you care about
A Lock is designed to match how people actually experience sports: with loyalty, with hope, and with a desire to be there if their moment happens.
It’s Time to Lock In Your Moment!
TicketLock replaces FOMO with flexibility. It gives fans a smarter, fairer way to experience sports and ensures that unforgettable moments go to the people who truly care.
