Dynamic Pricing FAQs

  

I'M A SEASON TICKET HOLDER, DOES DYNAMIC PRICING APPLY TO ME?

No.

Prior to the season, season-ticket holders will have an exclusive window to purchase single-game tickets prior to the general public. During this presale, pricing for premium games and single games will remain static.

As a benefit to our season-ticket holders and UCATS members, we will keep the special presale pricing for you through the end of the season, however, tickets will be available on a first-come, first-serve basis.


 

I'M A UCATS MEMBER, DOES DYNAMIC PRICING APPLY TO ME?

IS DYNAMIC PRICING ONLY APPLIED TO PREMIUM GAMES?

No.

Dynamic pricing will pertain to all games, however, the only game that dynamic pricing will apply to from the onset of the general public pre-sale will be the UCF and Tulsa games.

Cincinnati Athletics reserves the right to change pricing. Game dates and times are subject to change.

The best way to ensure you receive the best value with your ticket purchase is to secure tickets early via a season ticket or in one of our pre-sales.


 

WHY IS CINCINNATI ATHLETICS GOING TO DYNAMIC PRICING?

Dynamic pricing is an industry standard which allows the market to demand pricing standards. For games that are less attended, generally pricing will decrease in the model, allowing less expensive seats for purchase. For games with high attendance, the price increases with demand and available inventory.

By working towards this model, Cincinnati Athletics rewards our most loyal fans (season ticket holders and UCATS members) with pre-sales.



 

WHAT ABOUT PARTIAL PLANS, WILL THEY BE AFFECTED?

No.

Partial plans (if available or released), will be based on the set single-game price and will be immune to dynamic pricing.


 

WHY SHOULDN'T I JUST GO ON A SECONDARY MARKET TO PURCHASE SEATS?

Purchasing through the secondary market runs the risk of fraudulent tickets. Purchasing through the University of Cincinnati guarantees you will receive a verified and authentic ticket. It also gives you the opportunity to transfer tickets or resell directly through StubHub from your Bearcats Online Ticket Account if you are no longer able to attend.

If you were to purchase through the secondary market, Cincinnati Athletics has only one official ticket reseller: StubHub. Fans can certainly choose to make their own buying decisions, however, StubHub is the only verified and authentic secondary ticket sale vendor associated with Cincinnati Athletics. Cincinnati Athletics is not responsible for any seats sold through an unofficial exchange or resale market..


 

WHAT IF I WANTED TO BUY A GROUP – WHAT DO I PAY FOR A PREMIUM GAME?

Group sales are not impacted by dynamic pricing, therefore, you will pay a set price. The price you see on the Group Pricing Sheet will stay static throughout the year, as long as inventory is available.


 

I’M AN ALUM, AM I SUBJECT TO DYNAMIC PRICING?

Yes and No.

Prior to the season, alumni will have an exclusive window to purchase seats prior to the general public. During this presale, pricing for premium games and single games will remain static. After the presale period, pricing for alumni who are not season ticket holders or UCATS members will revert back to the dynamic model.
