Ticketmaster is the world’s largest online marketplace for purchasing tickets to any events including concerts, sports, theater, and many other events near your location. By partnering with event organizers, Ticketmaster can sell more tickets than everybody else. Even if Ticketmaster doesn’t offer money-back guarantees, it’s still safe to purchase tickets on it because any tickets you get there will be completely verified and reissued to you.

A problem with Ticketmaster though is that tickets, especially those for big events, usually sell out within minutes of it going live making it difficult to get a ticket for your own. You also can’t purchase lots of tickets for a large group as Ticketmaster limits the number of tickets a single account can purchase. If you accidentally purchased too many tickets, then Ticketmaster will immediately ban your account and IP address. This has forced many users into using ticketing proxies when purchasing in Ticketmaster.

With the rise of scalpers and resellers, Ticketmaster and many other ticket sites have fashioned an extremely strict policy against bots and would immediately strike an account that’s caught using one. You need to use your proxies effectively and only the best Ticketmaster proxies will work on it. Free proxies and even shared private proxies from random Ticketmaster proxy sites will not work as they are, most likely, already banned on Ticketmaster’s database. You’re going to need exceptional private proxies from an elite proxy provider to pair with your ticket bots.

The best proxies for Ticketmaster are residential proxies. They’re the only type of proxies that will effectively work on Ticketmaster as even datacenter proxies aren’t enough. Although residential proxies are slower than datacenter proxies, residential proxies are more secure as using rotating proxies that give you different residential IPs will make you appear as if you’re a different user each time you purchase a ticket.

Let’s set up a Ticketmaster proxy server.

How To Use Proxies With Ticketmaster

For Windows:

To set up proxies in Windows, simply search for “Proxy Settings” in your windows search bar and open the search result.

You are then given two options to choose from: Automatic proxy setup or Manual proxy setup. If you want windows to automatically detect your proxy settings, choose the first option. Choose the second option if you want to utilize a specific ip address and port number.

If you chose the first option, then:

  1. Turn on Automatically detect Settings
  2. Turn on Use setup script
  3. Enter the script address
  4. Click Save

If you chose the second option, then:

  1. Turn on Use a proxy server
  2. Input both server address and port number
  3. If you have any addresses you would like to visit without a proxy, enter them here
  4. Turn on Don’t use the proxy server for local addresses check box if you want to access a local server without a proxy
  5. Click Save

This should then redirect you to MacOS proxy settings. MacOS is more straightforward compared to windows. You only have one option which is to manually configure your proxy server.

Here are the steps to follow:

  1. Select which proxy IP protocol you want to configure. This depends on which protocols your proxy service provider offers.
  2. Turn on Secure Web Proxy
  3. Input the Proxy Server Address and Port Number
  4. Click OK to save the configurations

Note: You may be prompted for your Mac user password to save your settings.

For Mobile:

To set up a proxy server for Ticketmaster, simply change your phone’s proxy settings. The Ticketmaster app will automatically copy your phone’s proxy settings whenever you use it. This is applicable for both Android and IOS. Here’s a thorough guide for Android and another one for iPhone.

Congratulations! You have now finished configuring a Ticketmaster proxy server. Note that the first time you visit it, there will be a pop up asking for your login credentials.

Note: Make sure that the web browser you’re using for Ticketmaster is set to automatically copy your computer’s proxy settings. Google Chrome automatically does this, so it’s recommended to use it.
