Selling MLB Ballpark App Tickets on StubHub: Step-by-Step

The MLB Ballpark App is the official mobile app for managing your MLB tickets. If your tickets are already in your Ballpark App, you might wonder how to sell them on StubHub. Here's how it works:

1. Confirm Ticket Eligibility

First, make sure your tickets can be transferred and resold. Some special promotional tickets, giveaway nights, or exclusive ticket packages may have restrictions. Generally, standard game tickets purchased through authorized sources can be resold.

Tip: If you see a "Transfer" or "Sell" option next to your ticket in the MLB Ballpark App, you're good to go.

2. Download and Set Up StubHub

If you don’t already have the StubHub app, download it and set up an account. Make sure to verify your email address and payment details (like PayPal or direct deposit) so you can get paid once your tickets sell.

3. List the Tickets on StubHub

Follow these steps:

• Open the StubHub app or website.

• Tap Sell.

• Search for the MLB game you have tickets for (e.g., New York Yankees vs. Boston Red Sox, May 24).

• Select the exact event and venue.

• Choose the "Upload from MLB Ballpark" option if available.

• Enter the number of tickets you want to sell and seat details (section, row, seat number).

• Set your price (StubHub can recommend a price based on current market value).

• Review and publish your listing.

4. Transfer Tickets After They Sell

Once your tickets sell:

• Go back to your MLB Ballpark App.

• Find the game under your tickets.

• Tap Transfer and enter the buyer's email provided by StubHub.

• Complete the transfer and confirm.

StubHub will notify you when the ticket transfer is verified.

How to Sell MLB Tickets on StubHub

Even if you’re not using the MLB Ballpark App, you can still sell your MLB tickets on StubHub with ease.

Here’s the general process:

1. Locate Your Ticket Info

Whether you bought tickets via the team website, Ticketmaster, or another official vendor, have your ticket details ready: event date, time, venue, section, row, and seat numbers.

2. Create a StubHub Seller Account

If you haven't already, create a free seller account on StubHub.

Set up your payment method to receive your earnings automatically once your tickets are delivered and the event takes place.

3. Post Your Tickets for Sale

• On the StubHub home page, click or tap Sell.

• Search for the MLB game you have tickets for.

• Enter the event details manually if the automatic fill-in doesn’t find it.

• Upload your tickets if they’re digital (PDF files) or link them through your account (Ballpark App, Ticketmaster integration, etc.).

• Set your asking price.

• Choose how you want to deliver your tickets — either through a ticket transfer, a file upload, or barcode delivery.

StubHub makes the process super smooth and walks you through each step.

How to Sell MLB Season Tickets on StubHub

Season ticket holders often look to sell games they can’t attend. Selling season tickets on StubHub can be slightly different because of how they’re packaged. How to Sell MLB Season Tickets on StubHub

Here’s how to sell your MLB season tickets:

1. Break Them Into Single Games

You don’t have to sell the entire season at once. Most sellers break down their season tickets into individual games to maximize sales and profits.

Pro Tip: High-demand games (like rivalry games or special event nights) can fetch a premium price.

2. Know Your Resale Restrictions

Some MLB teams have rules about how many games you can resell without losing season ticket privileges. Check your team's season ticket holder agreement.

Teams may monitor excessive resale activity.

3. Use the MLB Ballpark App

Most MLB teams now load season tickets directly into the MLB Ballpark App, making it easy to sell individual games following the same steps mentioned earlier.

If your tickets are PDFs or printed, you can scan or upload them directly to StubHub.

4. Set Competitive Prices

Look at what other similar seats are listed for on StubHub. Price competitively but be mindful of fees and taxes that may reduce your earnings.

Some sellers prefer listing tickets slightly lower to guarantee a sale — especially for weekday games or games against less popular teams.

What Are MLB Official Resale Tickets?

MLB Official Resale Tickets refers to the partnerships between MLB teams and approved secondary marketplaces, mainly StubHub and SeatGeek (for some teams).

Here’s what you need to know:

How to Sell MLB Tickets Successfully: Top Tips

If you want to boost your chances of selling your MLB tickets quickly and for a good price, follow these pro tips:

1. List Early

As soon as you know you can’t attend, list your tickets. Early listings catch buyers planning their trips in advance.

Early-bird buyers tend to spend more too!

2. Monitor Prices

Ticket prices fluctuate constantly based on team performance, weather, playoff chances, and even player injuries.

Check back every few days and adjust your price if necessary.

3. Use Good Pricing Strategies

• Undercut similar listings slightly.

• Price slightly higher than your absolute minimum and lower your price as the event approaches.

• Consider offering multiple seats together, which are often more attractive to buyers.

Once your tickets sell, transfer them immediately through the MLB Ballpark App or your ticket source. Delayed transfers can frustrate buyers and even lead to cancellations.

5. Choose Instant Delivery If Possible

Buyers prefer listings with instant delivery — meaning they can get the tickets immediately after purchase. Upload PDFs or transfer electronically when possible.

Listings marked “Instant Download” get priority visibility on StubHub.
