Ticket collecting is gaining in popularity as collectors realize that tickets represent tangible artifacts from some of the greatest moments in sports and pop culture. You can preserve your ticket collection and add much needed security and value with PSA grading.
PSA-graded tickets are placed in sonically sealed, tamper-evident holders. These holders provide the best, safest, long-term storage. Plus, a ticket price guide is published monthly online in Sports Market Report.

PSA will begin authenticating and grading tickets from Ticketmaster, TicketTron, Tickets.com and other select 3rd party ticket providers for sporting events. Special designations may be added to labels to distinguish 3rd party ticket providers. PSA will not be processing any print-at-home tickets.
Due to the printing process and type of paper stock used on some tickets, fading of the ink may occur, which could affect the grade if re-submitted under one of our review or reholder services. As a reminder, tickets are not covered by the PSA Financial Guaranty of Grade & Authenticity, nor is PSA responsible for any type of fading that may occur once a ticket is encapsulated in a PSA holder.
You may request specific milestones or event designations be added to the PSA Lighthouse™ label when submitting your tickets for grading. Please include any supporting documentation from trustworthy sources.
Trustworthy sources are important to ensure we are labeling with the most accurate information available. The types of sources that PSA’s Research & Identification Department will use to create milestones are from accredited sports news outlets.
Below is a list of reputable sources that the Research & Identification Department deems credible. Sources that we do not deem to be credible would be personal blogs or websites, or any source that will sell items such as eBay.
All the above information would help the Research & Identification team in processing these requests. Additionally, if you are requesting a milestone or event, include the designation and documentation on a separate page and attach it to the Online Submission Center confirmation page. We will not honor milestone requests in the form of Post-it notes, pieces of paper in the card saver or writing on the card savers.
As a reminder, PSA may limit the number of requests due to character limits on the label. If no milestone or event designation is requested at the time of submission, PSA will assign a default destination for the milestone and, PSA reserves the final determination on all designations. Please ensure that all milestones are written in the level of importance as spacing is limited and we will make the adjustments as needed to include one or both in reasonable fashion.
