Texas Rangers Begin Second Season with TicketManager as Official Corporate Ticket Management Partner

The Rangers throw out the first pitch with TicketManager software and services supporting all suite holders and season ticket holders
With Opening Day around the corner for Major League Baseball, the Texas Rangers are set to provide all corporate and business customers with TicketManager’s ticket management and ticket transfer technology for all events in the Dallas / Fort Worth region.
“We want our partners and customers to have an unparalleled experience and achieve success through their association with our ballclub and Choctaw Stadium,” said Jim Cochrane, Rangers’ Executive Vice President, Partnerships. “Working with TicketManager allows us to deliver on that promise and ensures those companies earn a return on their investment in suites, premiums seats and season tickets.”
Rangers’ corporate customers use TicketManager’s convenient and simple tech to centralize their ticket inventory—including tickets for all other teams and events throughout the DFW Metroplex—seamlessly managing requests, distributing tickets to staff and guests, and tracking usage in real time through reports on which tickets were transferred, to whom and whether they were scanned in venue.
“In 2022, the Texas Rangers were pioneers when they became the first MLB team to forge a partnership with us to drive results for their corporate customers,” noted TicketManager CEO and Co-Founder Tony Knopp. “Since then the Chicago White Sox in MLB, along with teams in every major league have followed suit, including the Philadelphia Eagles, Minnesota Wild, the Washington Capitals and the Washington Wizards.
“In today’s volatile economic environment, companies need to get the most from their tickets while proving the return on investment. Teams like the Rangers have made it easier for companies to get the most out of Major League Baseball and have the peace of mind their investment is a good one.”
