In response to the backlash, Ticketmaster told LADbible: “Ticketmaster does not use any form of algorithmic or surge pricing, which changes prices automatically in response to consumer demand. Ticketmaster also does not use any form of differential pricing by which the price of a ticket will depend on the characteristics or behaviour of the purchaser.”
According to the popular ticketing site, the ‘event organiser determines the ticket prices for the event in advance’ and ‘prices never change during a customer’s purchase journey’.
