What’s the Difference Between Instant Delivery and In-Hand Date?

Instant Delivery

• Tickets are ready right away

• You’ll typically receive them within minutes of placing your order

• Ideal for last-minute purchases or same-day events

In Hand Date

• The latest date the seller expects to have the tickets ready

• Tickets may arrive sooner than this date—it’s often a conservative estimate

• Common when venues haven’t released tickets yet (like concerts, playoffs, or mobile-only events)
