Bundesliga comments on Viagogo: Signal against excessive ticket prices
Bundesliga-Vereine kritisieren Ticketbörsen wie Viagogo wegen überhöhter Preise und gefälschter Tickets. Die Clubs betonen, dass ihre Preisgestaltung auf soziale Verträglichkeit ausgerichtet ist und auf offiziellen Kanälen die Preise an die ursprünglichen Kosten gekoppelt sind.
The Bundesliga clubs are in conflict with ticket marketplaces like Viagogo. A central problem that the clubs are addressing is the appearance of fake listings on such platforms. Observers also point out that the average prices on Viagogo are significantly above fair value and that the free market is often characterized by inflated prices. Given these developments, the clubs emphasize that they align their pricing with social affordability and therefore offer cheaper categories, while the clubs' official resale platforms tend to tie prices to the original cost.
