There are described herein methods and systems for managing access rights to events. The access rights are allocated through a two-step process, whereby a first step comprises a real-time bidding procedure and a second step comprises a real-time seat allocation procedure. The system grants to users of successful bids an access right and an opportunity to select a seat for the event in accordance with a priority level associated with the successful bid. The priority level may be time related (selection of a seat before users having a lower priority level), seat-category related (selection of seats in a higher seat category than users having a lower priority level), or both, and is set in accordance with a monetary value associated with a given bid. |
