Miami Fort Lauderdale, FL, July 2, 2026 —
StubHub is the target of a class-action lawsuit filed in federal court in New York. The lawsuit was initiated by customers who allege that the ticket reseller’s failure to fulfill their World Cup ticket orders resulted in them being unable to attend matches.
The plaintiffs contend that StubHub engaged in deceptive sales practices, leading them to purchase tickets that were either non-existent or later revoked. This occurred despite the presence of StubHub’s FanProtect Guarantee, a policy designed to assure customers of the validity and availability of purchased tickets.
In response to the allegations, StubHub has stated that its primary objective is to facilitate fan attendance at events. The company indicated that issues encountered are often attributable to the ticketing infrastructure of the event organizer. FIFA, the organizer of the World Cup, has reportedly denied responsibility for transactions that occur on secondary market platforms like StubHub.
The specific details regarding the number of plaintiffs, the total value of tickets involved, and the precise timeline of the alleged deceptive practices were not immediately available. The lawsuit seeks to represent a class of customers who experienced similar issues with their World Cup ticket orders purchased through StubHub.
Further details regarding the court proceedings and any potential resolutions are expected to emerge as the case progresses through the federal court system in New York.
