National Women’s Soccer League club Angel City FC has teamed up with TicketManager, which will become its official ticket management and corporate ticket resale partner. 

TicketManager will provide its technology and services for corporate clients, partners, suite holders, corporate season ticket members and club seat holders at BMO Stadium.

Julie Uhrman, co-founder and president, Angel City FC, said: “Angel City is committed to providing a world-class experience to our fans. We are excited to be able to enhance their interaction with our club through TicketManager’s best-in-class technology and services and know they will appreciate the free access to their great platform.”

Angel City corporate customers will be able to use TicketManager’s technology to manage ticket inventory, including transferring mobile tickets and reselling unused inventory. Companies are able to sell unused tickets with one click by automatically pricing unused tickets and handling fulfilment and delivery.

Tony Knopp, TicketManager co-founder and chief executive, added: “In just a short time, Angel City has established itself as the new model for providing more than standard inventory and benefits, living up to the expectations of brands by taking an active role in ensuring that partnerships are delivering value to all parties involved, including, most importantly, the community.

“Through our partnership, not only is ACFC the first NWSL club to change the game for its corporate customers, but it joins other pro sports teams – including Los Angeles Football Club, the Philadelphia Eagles, Texas Rangers, Washington Capitals and Wizards – in aligning with their partners’ priorities.”

The live events and ticket management services provider has also recently opened an office in London to cater to partners based in the UK and Europe.

Brett Cahn and Alvin Chang will lead the new London team, transferring in from TicketManager’s southern California and New York offices.

Chang said: “Having worked with numerous multinational companies and international events including the Olympic Games and FIFA World Cup tournaments, we are well positioned to partner directly with British and European marketers in providing them the same tools that are used successfully every day by our hundreds of North American-based customers.”
