Why Beehive exists
A third of your ticket shouldn't vanish into fees.
Beehive was built by a Jazz and Mammoth season ticket holder who listed a $20 ticket, got $18 back, and watched the buyer pay $30 for it. Roughly 30% of every fan-to-fan sale was disappearing into a marketplace that did almost nothing. The actual delivery was a free official ticket transfer the whole time.
So here's the fix: sellers keep every dollar of their price, buyers pay a flat 10%, and our payment processor holds the money until your tickets are in your hands.

What makes it safe
Payment protection on every order
Your money is held by our payment processor (Stripe), not sent to the seller, until you confirm the tickets are in your own ticket account. Sellers have a hard transfer deadline (48 hours, shorter near game time). Miss it and the buyer is refunded in full, automatically.
The exact same tickets
Every team here delivers through its official ticketing system (SeatGeek for the Jazz, Mammoth, and RSL, and the schools' own ticket accounts for BYU, Utah, and Utah State football). The fan-to-fan transfer is free and the tickets land in the same official app either way. We replace the fees, not the tickets.
Sellers with reputations
Sellers verify their seats with proof and earn a badge. Every seller has a public profile: fulfillment rate, transfer speed, and reviews. The same seats build the same reputation, game after game.
Built here, for here
Beehive only does Utah teams at the Delta Center. No 40 sports in 20 countries, just an accurate renovated-arena seat map, local sellers, and prices set by fans, not algorithms.
Keep the money in the stands.
Same seats, same official tickets, a fraction of the fees, and every order protected until the tickets arrive.
