A sports ticket derivative is a type of futures contract specifically for sports tickets. Typical terms of a ticket future contract stipulate that a ticket to a specific game (typically a championship game, such as Super Bowl or World Series) is delivered to the holder of the contract contingent on a specific team making it to that event. Ticket futures were first offered by yoonew in 2004, under the title of Team Fantasy Seats.

How it works

For example, you could purchase a Team Fantasy Seat through yoonew for the New York Giants at a market-based price. If the Giants make it to the Super Bowl, the holder of the contract receives a Super Bowl ticket at no additional cost. Ticketscore.com allows you to buy into a price reduced team contract and pay over a term of up to 26 weeks.
