The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has reached a proposed settlement with StubHub, the largest ticket exchange and resale provider in the United States, under which the company will pay $10 million to settle allegations of deceptive ticket pricing.
In May 2025, the FTC’s Rule on Unfair or Deceptive Fees went into effect, according to which it is an “unfair and deceptive practice for any business to offer, display, or advertise the price of a live-event ticket without clearly, conspicuously, and most prominently disclosing the total price,” the agency said in an April 9 statement.
