Best credit card to use at StubHub.

Entertainment

StubHub is a leading resale marketplace where fans buy and sell tickets to live events, with prices that float based on demand. Purchases typically code as entertainment or ticketing, so a card with an entertainment category bonus is the strongest pick. Because resale prices swing widely, timing your buy often saves more than any rewards rate you could earn on the order.
