Rent a better seat for part of the game.
Paid and optional. Bid on, buy or grab a seat someone isn’t using, or list yours while you’re out of it. It comes back on the clock.
Seats for as long as you need them.
SeatBid sells seats for part of a game. Take the glass for the first half hour from puck drop, the lower bowl for an hour, or bid on whatever opens up when someone heads for the concourse. It works at every rink, fan to fan.
Bid, buy, or grab one free.
Every open seat in the building, live. Bid in seconds and get the seat details the moment you win.
No seats match right now. New ones open up all game.
Reserved, not charged
Bids are held on your card, never charged, until you win and claim.
Paid at check-in
Sellers get paid when the buyer checks in at the seat.
Back on the clock
A five-minute warning, then the seat goes back to its holder.
Up to four at once
Bid on up to four seats at the same time, enough for your whole group. The app keeps an eye on whichever one needs you first.
No last-second steals
The minimum raise grows as the clock runs down, so nobody wins a seat by adding a dollar in the final seconds.
Goal lights rate every seat
Up to three 🚨 per seat. Three lights means it’s closer to the ice than 90% of the building.
Win it, then claim it
Won the bidding? Claim the seat within two minutes, or pass and it goes to the next bidder. You’re only charged when you claim.
Questions about SeatBid.
Where does SeatBid run?
At every OHL rink, fan to fan. Anyone at the game can rent out their seat. If a team uses Bandwagon’s arena controls to set sections or timing, the app follows those rules at that rink.
Is my ticket still mine?
Yes. You list time in your seat, not the ticket. When the time’s up you get a five-minute warning and the seat is yours again.
What if someone won’t leave?
Tap Report. Ushers see on their view who holds the seat right now, and any refund is handled in the app.
Is SeatBid gambling?
No. You bid on one specific seat for a set time, and if you win, you get that seat. Bandwagon never takes bets.
When am I charged?
Bids are reserved on your card, not charged. You’re charged only when you claim a seat you won, and sellers are paid when you check in.
