Face ID , wonderful, and if we don’t use pr want to use Face ID?
FaceID OR Pin Code, whatever MFA you have turned on, point is MFA to ensure the ticket buyer is the ticket user...again, TBD on the actual details yet..
The bottom line is that there is a problem with "bots" and resellers, if this helps to combat those folks, then its ultimately a good thing...
We could all come up with a ton of reasons why it sucks, for sure, but alas here we are..
Lets use the 10C hive mind to our advantage and make the system work for us the best we can, whatever it is...Sorry, I did a short cut of that idea, requiring a purchase history with a matching location to buy tickets, would be only for F2F for the first 72 hours after a ticket is posted.
Regarding the verified sale tickets, that’s a little tricker because yes, they need to allow first time buyers…perhaps TM could reject an intitial appplication for verification if there is zero purchase history, but allow first time buyers a second registration and only allow personal accounts and cc’s with GPS verification. This should eliminate many corporate accounts. Ironically, the verified sale may be the trickiest to stop brokers.
If we can only get tickets one of three ways…fan club, F2F and verified sale, stopping bots in two of those categories could be a big win for fans.0 -

Glass half empty. You can always walk in with the ticket owner scalper. There is no way to ever fix that.0 -

I'm about to post a single on the floor for LA1 - Sec 1, Row 100

Does anyone know if you put the settings on 2 tickets for a show that no pairs are available and toggle between list and map if tickets will show up when a pair is dropped? Or do you have to refresh by changing the amount of tickets you're searching for? Hopefully someone understands this question.0

Dug out an old android. Is this what typically has shown up? Not sure if this would prevent splitting a pair across two Google accounts or if it would permanently link this TM account to this Google account as opposed to just for this ticket

I do like the first part. Try and prevent duplicate accounts. Right now you can use a credit card with different ownership on anyone's account and what not. If they put in an effort, they could probably find a way to cut down or disallow duplicate accounts. I don't think they will, because for most of the sales they want to be selling tickets, not restricting the sale of them :(

Not sure if anroid changed over the past few days, but this has been a pretty exploitable loophole for a while.0 -

Clearly, this is a very difficult issue for a plethora of reasons, some of which certainly includes TM's own practices/relationships with 3rd parties....for this particular tour, it seems like "they" are trying to stop the bots with this...it sucks that its hard for "us", but i would rather it be difficult for us and nearly impossible for bots than sort of hard for us and a free for all for the bots....1995: New Orleans, LA

Pearl Jam has partnered with Ticketmaster to help fans get their tickets at face value. On the night of the show, all guests will be required to enter with the ticket purchaser." 10C ticket policy not sure if always been like this but seems maybe they are enforcing now.So now we need an android or mobile phone. We need an Apple ID tied to a TM account with Face ID. What’s next, we bring a lawyer with us to a show? “I bought tickets on vivid therefore I am a ticket purchaser, let me in.” I realize that’s wrong but there are simpler ways to limit bots ability to buy F2F and verified tickets,without creating a tech nightmare 1 hour before showtime for fans.
