The Lysted alternative for North America and Europe
Like Lysted, SyncSeats reaches the big North American marketplaces and takes a listing down everywhere when it sells. On top, it brings European marketplaces such as Ticombo, Fanatix, Fanpass, Gigsberg and Hellotickets, and it is run by a German company.
Five differences between SyncSeats and Lysted
North America and Europe, one inventory

Lysted takes 8% of what the marketplace pays it, less from $200,000 a year, and by default raises list prices so that marketplace fees come to 2%. With SyncSeats, each marketplace’s own commission applies. So compare on your own sales.

Yes. Take them down at Lysted first, then list them in SyncSeats, one by one or by CSV with up to 200 rows per event.
