Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about MySeatPack — how it works, what's guaranteed, and what to expect.
What is a MySeatPack?
A MySeatPack is a ticket pack for a live event. Each pack includes a fixed list of possible events and a guaranteed seat tier. After the pack drop closes, each pack is assigned one event from the listed options. There are three ways to get involved: grab a pack from a live drop, build your own custom pack, or play Predict & Win to earn store credit for free.
What types of events can be included?
MySeatPack drops can include sporting events, concerts, and other live events. Each pack page clearly lists the exact events included in that drop. Custom Packs are currently available for select Lakers games in beta, with more events coming soon.
Do I choose the event I attend?
Not with drop packs — each pack includes multiple possible events, and one is assigned after the drop closes. With Custom Packs, you choose which games are in your pack and set the odds yourself, but the final assignment is still random. In both cases, you'll see the odds for every possible game before you buy.
How many tickets are in a pack?
One pack equals one seat (one ticket) to an event. If you purchase multiple packs in one order, your seats are guaranteed to be together (when available in tier).
What seats are included?
Every pack includes a seat tier guarantee, based on the pack you purchase:
- Upper Access Packs: Upper-level seating or better
- Lower Access Packs: Guaranteed lower-level seating
Seat guarantees apply per pack. Every pack guarantees one authentic ticket to one listed event.
What does "seat tier guaranteed" mean?
A seat tier refers to your guaranteed seating level (for example: 100 level or 300 level). After the drop closes, one event is assigned and your ticket for that seat tier is delivered electronically.
Will my seats be together?
Yes. All packs purchased in a single order will be seated together, up to the maximum number of packs allowed per order. Orders placed separately may result in different seat locations and/or different events.
Can I request specific seats or a different section?
No. Seat selection is not available with MySeatPack. Your pack guarantees a seat tier (for example, 100 level or 300 level), not a specific section or row. If you are looking for a specific seat location, MySeatPack may not be the right fit — our model is designed for fans who prioritize value and flexibility over exact seat choice.
What is Predict & Win?
Predict & Win is a free game that runs before every MySeatPack game. You predict the total combined score of both teams. The closest guess wins store credit, and everyone earns leaderboard points. No purchase necessary — it's 100% free to play. Try it now →
Is Predict & Win really free?
Yes. No purchase required, no credit card, no catch. One entry per person per game. Just enter your prediction and email before tipoff.
What can I win?
There are two ways to win with every prediction:
- Game Night Prizes: The closest prediction wins $10 in store credit. 2nd and 3rd closest each win $5.
- Cumulative Leaderboard: Every prediction earns leaderboard points (Top 10% = 4 pts, Top 25% = 3 pts, Top 50% = 2 pts, everyone else = 1 pt). After 20 challenges, the top predictor wins $150 in MySeatPack credit — that's a free game night.
How do prediction credits work?
Credits are added to your account when you win. They stack across games and never expire. When you're ready, redeem them in $10 increments for a discount code at checkout. One discount code per order. Codes expire 90 days after redemption, but your underlying credit balance never expires.
Can I use prediction credits on any pack?
Yes. Prediction credits can be redeemed for a discount code that works on any MySeatPack — drop packs or custom packs. Codes are single-use and one per order.
What if I miss a game?
You're never out of it. The maximum leaderboard points per game is 4, so missing one won't wreck your standing. Just keep playing — the leaderboard runs across all 20 challenges in a series.
How do I check my credit balance and history?
On the Predict & Win page, enter your email under "My Account" to see your full prediction history, current credit balance, leaderboard rank, and redeem discount codes.
What is a Custom Pack?
A Custom Pack lets you build your own MySeatPack from scratch. You pick 3–5 games, set your own odds for each game (between 10% and 50%), and get a custom price based on your selections. Same concept as a drop pack — one pack, one guaranteed seat to one game — but you control the inputs. Build one now →
What games are available for Custom Packs?
Custom Packs are currently in beta with select Lakers games available. More events and teams will be added soon. Available games and live market pricing are shown on the Custom Pack builder page.
How is the Custom Pack price calculated?
Pricing is dynamic based on the games you select and the odds you set. Higher-demand games cost more, and the odds you assign affect the weighted price. Your total pack price is shown in real time before checkout — no fees on top of what you see.
How is my game assigned on a Custom Pack?
The same way as drop packs. Your odds map to number ranges between 1 and 100. After your order is confirmed, the NIST Randomness Beacon — a government-run quantum random number source — generates a number that determines your game. You receive the beacon result and timestamp so you can verify it yourself. Learn more about our assignment process →
Does the buyback apply to Custom Packs?
Yes. Custom Packs include a 24-hour buyback window. After your game is assigned, you have 24 hours to request a buyback for store credit. Buyback eligibility and the exact percentage are always listed on the pack page before purchase. View full Buyback Policy →
How long does it take to confirm a Custom Pack order?
Custom Pack orders are manually reviewed. You'll receive a confirmation email within 24 hours of purchase. Your game is then assigned within 24 hours of confirmation, and your ticket is delivered no later than 24 hours before the event.
Can I use a promo code or prediction credit on a Custom Pack?
Yes. Promo codes can be applied during the Custom Pack builder checkout. Prediction credit discount codes work at the Shopify checkout step, just like with drop packs.
How do odds work?
For drop packs, odds for each event are published before the drop opens and are fixed once the drop is live. For Custom Packs, you set the odds yourself (between 10% and 50% per game, totaling 100%). In both cases, assignments are made fairly using the same verifiable process.
How is my event assigned?
After the drop closes (or after your Custom Pack order is confirmed), each pack is assigned to one event using the NIST Randomness Beacon — a public, verifiable random number source. All assignments are completed before tickets are delivered. Learn more about our assignment process →
When will I find out which event I got?
For drop packs, the random start number is generated and results are published at 4:00pm PT after the drop closes. For Custom Packs, your game is assigned within 24 hours of order confirmation. Email notifications follow in both cases confirming your assigned event.
Why don't I receive my exact seat location right away?
Exact seat locations are confirmed closer to the event to allow efficient fulfillment and ensure every customer receives seats that meet their guaranteed tier. Your seat tier is locked and tickets are delivered no later than 24 hours before the event.
Do all packs include promotions or bonuses?
Every drop includes an upgrade opportunity — a chance for eligible customers to be randomly upgraded to a better seat tier. Additional promotions or bonuses may also be offered on select drops and will be clearly listed on the pack page before purchase.
What kinds of promotions might be offered?
Every drop includes an upgrade opportunity. Depending on the drop, additional promotions may include bonus store credit, limited-time perks, or other rewards. Promotion details can vary by pack, including value, quantity, eligibility, and timing.
Can promotion terms change after I purchase?
No. Any promotion terms (and odds, if applicable) are set before the drop opens and are locked once the drop is live. After the drop closes, promotion results are applied fairly and consistently based on the disclosed rules.
What is the 24-hour buyback?
After your event is assigned, you have 24 hours to request a buyback for store credit instead of attending — on packs that include buyback eligibility. Buyback availability and the exact percentage are listed on each pack page before you purchase. If you select buyback, no tickets will be issued for your assigned event. If no action is taken within 24 hours, your ticket will be delivered as assigned.
How much is the buyback credit?
Buyback credit varies by drop and is listed on each pack page before you purchase. For example, at an 85% buyback rate on a $289 pack, you would receive $245.65 in store credit. Credits are issued as non-expiring store credit toward any future MySeatPack. View full Buyback Policy →
Does store credit expire?
No. Store credit never expires and can be used toward any future MySeatPack — including drop packs and Custom Packs.
What happens if I do nothing after assignment?
If no action is taken within 24 hours, your pack is automatically kept and fulfilled as assigned.
How and when are tickets delivered?
Tickets are delivered electronically via the official venue-approved mobile transfer system. Tickets will be delivered to the email associated with your order no later than 24 hours before the event, unless otherwise noted on the pack page.
Can I transfer my tickets to someone else?
Yes. Once tickets are delivered through the venue's official mobile transfer system, you may transfer them to another person using that same platform, subject to the venue's transfer policies.
Is MySeatPack guaranteed?
Yes. Every pack is covered by the MySeatPack Guarantee, including authentic tickets, on-time delivery, seat guarantees, transparent assignment, and non-expiring buyback credit. This is not a game of chance or a sweepstakes — each purchase guarantees a ticket to a real event.
Are refunds available?
No cash refunds. Buybacks for store credit are available within 24 hours of assignment on eligible packs. If an event is canceled and not postponed, appropriate refunds or credits will be issued.
Are there any additional taxes or fees?
The pack price shown is the price you pay. MySeatPack does not charge additional service fees or convenience fees on top of the listed price. Applicable taxes, if any, will be calculated at checkout based on your location and applicable law.
