Cinamon Cinemas, Eastern Europe's rapidly-growing cinema chain, Mobiqa, world leaders in mobile cinema ticketing and Vista Entertainment Solutions, a global leader in entertainment software solutions have launched Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia's first mobile cinema ticketing service for film fans.
Customers of Cinamon Cinemas can take advantage of this convenient new offering by buying their tickets on Cinamon Cinema's website and opting for mobile ticket delivery. A cinema ticket is then generated and delivered straight to the customer's mobile phone in the form of a text message. Cinamon's mobi-ticket contains a unique 2D barcode and accompanying information about when the film starts, the customer's seats and what screen the film will be shown on. This barcoded message is simply opened by the customer as they enter the foyer, scanned by a member of Cinamon's staff and then they are free to enjoy the latest blockbusters as usual.
Mobile ticketing offers several unique benefits for cinemas and their customers over that of traditional paper tickets. Customers no longer need to turn up early to purchase their tickets at the box office or at automated kiosks, they can make their way straight to the usher point, streamlining entry into the movie. mobi-tickets allow customers more time to visit concession stands before their film starts as they already have their ticket on their phone and mobile ticket are more environmentally friendly than the paper tickets issued at the box-office and kiosks. mobi-tickets are highly convenient, efficient and versatile as there is potential for the barcode in the ticket to act, not only as your entry into the film, but to double-up as a coupon for promotions at the cinema's concession stands.
