1. A computer-implemented method for reassignment of tickets in a live event, comprising:
querying a data store for a set of tickets to a venue that satisfy a ticketing constraint, each ticket of the set of tickets enabling access to a spatial area associated with a venue during a defined time period of a live event, and the set of tickets including an assigned ticket that was previously-assigned to a data accessing system and a unique identifier code representing the assigned ticket;
transmitting a first communication to a data requesting system comprising a notification of available tickets with options for a user to select one or more tickets from a mobile device of the user, the first communication including an identifier for each of at least a subset of the set of tickets and a reassignment request condition that, when satisfied, triggers a reassignment process corresponding to the assigned ticket;
receiving a second communication from the data requesting system, the second communication including an indication from the user that the reassignment request condition has been satisfied; and
in response to receiving the indication that the reassignment request condition has been satisfied, executing the reassignment process between a server and the data requesting system by transmitting a third communication to the data requesting system, the third communication including a second notification sent to the mobile device with a display of a different unique identifier code associated with a reassigned ticket.
