Facebook continues to expand its business, and become everything to everybody on the internet. Now an online ticket retailer has tapped the social network to sell tickets for any venue or group.
The social networking giant is announcing that its current joint venture with TicketForce, Facebook Ticketing, is now available for any venue or group with a need to sell tickets.
"We opened Facebook Ticketing to include non-TicketForce customers because of the huge opportunity that exists for all of these groups to sell more tickets even if they are already locked in to using one of our competitors for the venue or show," said Lynne King Smith, CEO of TicketForce.
"Neither Ticketmaster nor Live Nation offers Facebook Ticketing, and there are more than 500 million people on Facebook who are more comfortable making a transaction right there, in that environment."
