Marketplace Syncs: Guide to Colors and Statuses

Modified on Thu, 29 Oct at 5:27 PM

Within the Inventory/Pricing pages, you can view the syncing status of your listings via a color-coded border and hover states. This is available in both the old and new portal interfaces. 


As of October 29, 2026, this feature is available for these marketplaces:

1. Ticketmaster

2. StubHub/Viagogo

4. GoTickets

5. SeatGeek


More marketplaces will be added soon!
