In the secondary market, legitimacy was the first step towards establishing an industry-wide standard of conduct. With this in mind, a small group of pioneers came together in 1994 and formed the National Association of Ticket Brokers in order to represent the interests of legitimate ticket sellers worldwide, all while promoting consumer protection and industry education. Through self-governance, the NATB has provided enhanced protections for ticket-buying consumers, and created a platform that allows the public to report unethical conduct by ticket brokers. NATB has worked with law enforcement agencies, state and federal legislators, and professional sports leagues & teams. Indeed, NATB has been vital in the NFL's fight against counterfeit and stolen tickets.

NATB has released the following statement in response to the filing of the DOJ and certain States Attorney Generals lawsuit against Live Nation: “On behalf of the hundreds of professional ticket resale companies within NATB’s Membership, we appreciate the acknowledgment in the complaint filed by the DOJ and States AGs about how Live Nation/Ticketmaster uses technology to foreclose competing ticket sellers, many of which are our Members, from serving the needs of fans who enjoy the benefits of using the resale market and professional ticket resellers. Last year, for 60% of events, fans could find lower cost tickets on the resale market when compared to the venue box office or its ticketing agent, which is most often Ticketmaster. The secondary market and its participants are worth protecting. Regulators and legislators should do everything in their power to facilitate a free and open resale market and the ability of ticketholders to transfer, gift and sell their tickets as they choose.”
