PAWTUCKET, RI – Rhode Island FC announced a ticketing partnership today with SeatGeek, the high-growth technology platform that is transforming the live event experience for fans, teams and venues. SeatGeek now partners with 12 USL Championship clubs and four USL W teams.
SeatGeek signed a league partnership deal with the USL last year while adding five new clubs as clients. Rhode Island FC joined these clubs as SeatGeek partners to take advantage of the platform’s fan-friendly features and backend business insights.
“When we were searching for the right ticket platform to kick off our inaugural season, we wanted a company with a track record of innovation,” said Vicky Lynch, Rhode Island FC’s Chief Revenue Officer. “We are optimistic that SeatGeek will make it easy for us to give fans a seamless matchday experience while also helping us target new customers and grow the beautiful game in our community.”
SeatGeek builds technology that goes above and beyond traditional ticket platforms. Its in-app Rally platform lets clients build fan-friendly features into their tickets, like seat upgrades, food and merchandise promotions and more. And clients use its backend technology, Unify, to manage fan-specific data to enhance the matchday experience.
SeatGeek continues to grow its presence in soccer across the globe. In addition to these new USL and USL W clients, SeatGeek tickets eight Major League Soccer clubs, three National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) clubs, and several English Premier League teams, including Manchester City F.C., Liverpool F.C. and Newcastle United.
