Get face-value tickets
before anyone else.
Put down a small refundable deposit to unlock early access before tickets go on sale.
Why presales feel rigged
Presales weren't built for real fans.
SeatLock flips that.
A small deposit turns early access into something only real fans will do — not bots, not speculators.
How SeatLock works
Commit with a deposit
Choose an event and place a small refundable deposit. It does not buy a ticket — it only signals you're serious.
Commitment window closes
When the window ends, only fans who placed a deposit are eligible for early access.
Early access opens
Before public on-sale, the venue emails eligible fans a standard ticket link at face value.
Deposit is settled
Your deposit is automatically refunded after checkout.
No manual steps. No trading access.
Why the deposit exists
The deposit makes early access scarce on purpose — so only real fans get in.
The deposit isn't a perk. It's a filter.

Tickets are always sold directly by the venue.
Questions before you commit?
Yes. If you don't buy a ticket during your early-access window, your deposit is released automatically.
No. Your deposit guarantees early access, not a seat. You'll still need to complete checkout.
No. Deposits and early access are tied to you to keep things fair and stop scalpers.
No. You always pay the venue's face value and fees directly through their normal checkout.
