Gigsberg Cashback: how buying resale tickets works
Gigsberg is a resale marketplace for concert, sport, theatre and festival tickets. The sellers set the prices, not the site. Cashback on Gigsberg depends on the rate the marketplace has released, and the current status is always shown on our store page.
Below you find how the site works, what is worth checking before you pay and how to start from Coin7 so that your purchase is linked to your account.
What Gigsberg actually is
Gigsberg is not a box office. It is a secondary market, which means private sellers and resellers list tickets they cannot or do not want to use, and you buy from them through the platform. The site covers rock, pop and rap concerts, football, rugby and tennis, theatre, ballet, comedy and festivals. This listing is for buyers in the United Kingdom.
The platform says its tickets are guaranteed and secure, and it advertises a buyer protection on top of that. Read the exact wording on the site before you rely on it, because the details of such a promise are what count if something goes wrong.
Who it is useful for
A resale site makes the most sense when the official sale is over. You hear about a gig two days after the tickets sold out, or a friend wants to join a football weekend at the last minute. In those cases a marketplace is often the only way in, and you accept that the price is not fixed.
It is less useful when tickets are still on sale at face value. Then the official seller is almost always the cleaner choice, and a resale price above the printed value is simply an extra cost.
A practical example: if you want to see a band on a Saturday in summer, set a price you are willing to pay before you start looking. That keeps you from panic buying at the first listing, and it makes comparing the listings quick and calm.
Things to check before you pay
Prices on Gigsberg are set by sellers and can be above or below face value. Hot events usually cost more, while a mid-week game or a small venue can sometimes be cheaper than the printed price. Compare a few listings for the same event before you pick one.
- Seat or section: look at the exact block, row and view, not just the event name.
- Total price: check what is added at checkout before you enter your card details.
- Delivery: find out how and when the tickets reach you. Some arrive late because the seller has to transfer them first.
- Event details: date, venue and time. Postponed events are more common than people think.
- Age and entry rules: some venues have conditions about names on tickets or ID at the door.
If something looks unclear, contact the platform before buying, not after. It is much easier to ask a question than to fix a problem on the evening of the event.
The cashback situation, honestly
At the moment no cashback rate is published for Gigsberg. That is a decision of the marketplace and not something we can change. Starting at Coin7 still links your purchase to your account, and a rate applies from the moment Gigsberg releases one. We look at this every day, and the date of the last check is shown at the top of the store page.
So before a big purchase, open the store page and look at the current status. Do not assume a number from an earlier visit, because rates change.
How to get cashback at Gigsberg
Open Coin7, go to the Gigsberg page at Gigsberg on Coin7 and use the button that takes you to the shop. Find your event and buy as you normally would, in the same browser session. Do not switch tabs to another voucher or price site in between, because that can break the tracking. Cashback is confirmed only after the event has taken place or the cancellation period has ended, so be patient. Use only codes that you find on our page, and none from other sites.
