What was the scope of the Offside Seats project?

We were responsible for the full development of the Offside Seats platform, including frontend architecture, backend integration, and content management setup. The goal was to deliver a fast, scalable, and fan-focused digital experience.

What technologies and frameworks were used in this project?

The platform was built using Next.js for the frontend, integrated with a headless CMS, and powered by serverless architecture to ensure performance and scalability. We also implemented custom APIs for real-time features.

What were the main challenges and how were they solved?

One of the key challenges was balancing interactivity with performance. We solved this by optimizing rendering strategies, lazy-loading heavy components, and leveraging edge functions to reduce latency for global users.

Problem

Reselling event tickets is clunky, unsafe, and fragmented.

Fans often buy tickets for games or events but later can’t attend. Selling them on secondary markets is a frustrating experience: platforms have high fees, are hard to trust, or make it difficult to reach real fans. This leads to unused tickets, lost money, and a poor experience for both sellers and buyers. Teams and event organizers also lose control and visibility into these transactions.

Solution

A simple, trusted resale experience built for fans.

We built Offside Seats, a fan-first ticket resale platform that makes it easy to list, share, and sell tickets in minutes. With secure payments, verified listings, and a streamlined UX, fans can now buy and sell tickets with confidence. The platform also gives teams greater insight and integration potential into the resale market.

Results

A developer-friendly resale engine powering real fan communities.

Since launch, Offside Seats has facilitated thousands of safe ticket resales and significantly reduced fan friction around last-minute listings. Teams benefit from better resale data and fan engagement. The platform’s modular, API-driven backend allows fast deployment across different sports and entertainment partners.
