StubHub has reportedly spent nearly $2.6 million lobbying to stop the California Fans First Act, a bill capping ticket resale prices to 10% above original price and limiting fees on resale marketplaces. The bill targets independent venues with capacities under 3000 and is under consideration in the California State Senate.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of E-commerce.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Ticket resale platforms face stronger regulation in California, cutting resale price gouging and fees. You must prepare for tighter controls or risk losing market access in a key US state.
