How does it charge?

one-time

Per-ticket pricing by event (CAD); no tickets currently on sale, ticket prices not found

The above describes historical pricing. Check official website for current prices.

03 / ACQUISITION

Where do users come from?

Newly appeared in September with 4,178 visits, 97.35% from Canada. Search is 56.7%, almost entirely non-brand event keywords (mac hoco, mcmaster hoco, swae lee tickets mcmaster) as students look for Homecoming show tickets; direct 32.5%, email 6.5% (purchase confirmation emails).

Channel share, initial acquisition, and growth drivers are distinct; correlation does not imply proven causation.

04 / YOUR NEXT QUESTION

What remains to be verified?

The following are research questions, not established market opportunities.

  • What do target users actually pay for? Is there direct user feedback or paid interview evidence?
  • Are these historical prices still active today? What are the conversion, retention, and fulfillment costs?
  • Is the "SEO" channel still viable? What resources do indie devs need to test it?
  • Whose needs are competitors failing to meet? Find specific evidence before deciding on your angle.
