What was ticketing fee charged to the buying fan on this sale? The bots say ~30% avg. buyer fee for high demand games, so if the price of the two tickets was $280k, that's $84k in ticket fees paid by the buyer on top...going straight to Stubhub. 🤔

For teams that use @jump_platforms , this fee would have been either $0, or the club itself would have collected this fee, based on whatever % fee they set in the system (effectively it would just be part of the ticket price).

I only want to work with companies obsessed with being the best in the world at what they do.

And I hope those are the kind of companies that want to work with us at @jump_platforms. Here's why: https://t.co/YZn7H1gOqz

Sports teams don't have a data problem. They have a speed problem. Thank you @SBJ for digging in with me on this! https://t.co/1FEdeuQPLe

Another big moment and big win for @jump_platforms as we enter MLS. Top tier sports teams want real technology, purpose-built for them. Makes sense!

[Jordy Leiser @jordyleiser]

The biggest barrier to innovation in the business of live sports has rarely been the tech.

It’s been the culture. The leadership. The courage.

Too much of the industry has been optimized for protecting the old ways, the old model, not building the next one.

Another big announcement coming from @jump_platforms in a few days…finally seeing more cracks in that legacy mindset.

"They've been an incredible partner!"

So good! 🏀

Keep an eye on this one

[Jump @jump_platforms]

For years, sports teams didn’t fully control ticketing—not by choice, but because switching could risk retaliation elsewhere in the building.

The DOJ–Live Nation settlement changes that. Teams can now choose technology built for sports. @jordyleiser

AI is eating software.

But it won’t kill every SaaS company.

It will kill the ones that never had a moat.

In sports & live events, the moat is the mess:

10,000+ inventory units
Prices moving daily
Weather, injuries, schedule changes
Resale markets
Thousands of fans hitting 100 gates at once

You can’t vibe code that.

The messier the category, the stronger the vertical software gets as it embeds AI.

Messiness is the moat. 🏟️

Notable: The revenue leader is Kansas City's soccer team, which had the first purpose-built women's stadium.

Underscores that owning your own venue (even a small one, at 11,500 capacity) is a massive revenue advantage.

@AberdeenFC gets it. The future of sports is clubs owning the fan relationship...end to end.

Proud to partner with a club that’s thinking bigger about what the supporter experience can be.

[Aberdeen FC @AberdeenFC]

Aberdeen FC is proud to become the first sports team outside the United States to partner with Jump as its exclusive fan experience and ticketing platform from the 2027/28 season.

The platform will deliver an enhanced experience for our supporters 🤝

A year before Kobe Bryant's passing, he said something to my friend @AROD that gives me chills:

“If what I do in the next 20 years is not better than my last 20 years, then I have failed.”

Someone told him that was disrespectful to everything he’d accomplished in his basketball career.

His response?

"My man...that mentality is the only reason I accomplished it in the first place."

Such a tragedy we didn't get to see that next 20yr run from Kobe.

Greatness isn’t an outcome. It’s a standard. It’s a mentality that says: what got me here is the floor — not the ceiling.

In sports, in business, in teaching, in investing, in anything — true world-class performance requires a mindset that is, by definition, rare.

99.9% of people don’t think this way. They protect what they’ve learned or built. They defend past wins. They optimize for comfort. They cruise.

Elite people in their profession do the opposite.

They assume their best years should be ahead of them. They demand more from themselves than anyone else ever could. Kobe said he simply couldn't tolerate people who didn't demand excellence from themselves.

Championship teams are built this way. Generational companies are built this way. World class organizations are built this way. They create cultures where “good enough” feels like losing.

Greatness doesn’t happen by accident. It's a mentality. It’s a decision. Every day.

"Ownership wants a direct relationship with the fans." Find me a sports team owner who disagrees with this.

This is an idea whose time has finally come. We're at full NBA scale. And it's working.

Some big announcements coming as we kick off 2026. Stay tuned!

[Jump @jump_platforms]

The @Timberwolves didn’t want a new ticketing system.
They wanted a modern fan experience.

So they unified their entire fan-facing ecosystem with Jump and delivered the fastest ticketing and digital experience implementation in NBA history.

Ryan Tedder Thinks Sports Fandom Needs an Upgrade... we agree, thanks @RyanTedder! https://t.co/3Fxcd9VzG1

@GrowTons7 Confirmed all the orders were refunded. Sorry for the mishap.

[Jordy Leiser @jordyleiser]

@GrowTons7 Hey Jeff! Let me look into this for you. Stay tuned.
Go Wolves, DSFC and Broncos!

[Jon Krawczynski @JonKrawczynski]

This week’s Jon Krawczynski Show: so how is the new ticketing forum being implemented this season going to work? We have Jump CEO Jordy Leiser here to lay it all out. https://t.co/dutrFS5WaO

In Bezos's world where "your margin is my opportunity," 15-20% EBITDA margins are just asking for disruption. If secondary tickets are commodities, shouldn't margins trend toward low single digits over time? Maybe that's what explains the Vivid Seats stock price.

[Jordy Leiser @jordyleiser]

This of course means zero fan loyalty or lock-in. My comparison shopping behavior suggests these are commoditized middlemen with negligible differences when it comes to inventory, fees / pricing algorithms and UX. On any given day, I think most of us would be indifferent.
