viagogo reaches settlement with CMA

Global online marketplace for live sport, entertainment and music tickets, viagogo, and the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), have today reached a ground-breaking settlement, bringing an end to the legal dispute between the two parties.

viagogo is a secure online marketplace that aims to provide buyers with the widest possible choice of tickets to events, and enables sellers to reach a global audience.

Once buyer and seller have entered into a transaction, viagogo ensures everything goes smoothly.

The agreement with the CMA will enable buyers and sellers to exchange tickets with more transparency and additional information, such as Face Value, will be displayed on the website.

It reflects a desire to ensure that the consumer has as much information as possible before making their purchase decision.

Welcoming the settlement, a spokesperson for viagogo said: “We are pleased that we have been able to work closely with the CMA to come to an agreement that provides even greater transparency to consumers.”
