No, you cannot use a Ticketmaster gift card on Universe.com.
Understanding Ticketmaster Gift Card Usage
Ticketmaster gift cards are specifically designed for purchases directly on Ticketmaster's primary platform for eligible "Ticketmaster Products." Universe.com, while sometimes linked or associated with Ticketmaster, operates as a separate third-party website. This means that any purchases made on Universe.com fall outside the scope of what a Ticketmaster gift card can cover.
Key Restrictions for Ticketmaster Gift Cards:
- Third-Party Websites: Gift cards cannot be used on any third-party websites, even if they are linked from Ticketmaster's main site. This explicitly includes platforms like Universe.com and TicketWeb.
- Non-Ticketmaster Products: The gift cards are intended for official Ticketmaster products and services only.
- Specific Exclusions: Beyond third-party sites, you generally cannot use a Ticketmaster gift card for:
- Ticket insurance
- Resale tickets (where resale is an option)
- Any goods or services not classified as "Ticketmaster Products."
Where Can You Use Your Ticketmaster Gift Card?
Your Ticketmaster gift card is valid for purchasing official tickets and related products directly on the main Ticketmaster website or app. This includes a wide range of live event tickets such as:
- Concerts
- Sports events
- Theater performances
- Family shows
Always ensure you are making your purchase directly through the official Ticketmaster channels to redeem your gift card successfully.
