Gift Cards and Vouchers
A gift that always brings guests to your cinema.
Sell tomorrow’s cinema visit today.
With our vouchers and gift cards, your cinema experience becomes a gift – giving your guests another reason to return. You know your cinema and your guests’ wishes best: create vouchers according to your own ideas while keeping full control over stock and status at all times. This way, you offer the perfect cinema experience without losing track.
For cinema operators who want to use vouchers as a permanent revenue channel
For venues that want to configure classic gifts themselves and offer them at the till. For cinemas looking to capture last-minute online business. And for operators who do not want to manage numerous voucher types, batches and remaining balances with external spreadsheets alongside their system.
Revenue before the visit
The voucher is sold before the guest enters the foyer – online or at the box office.
Last-minute sales
Your webshop keeps selling long after the box office has closed.
Concessions become part of the gift
With combined package vouchers, a ticket gift turns into a full cinema evening complete with snacks and drinks.
Less searching, fewer spreadsheets
Status, remaining balance, batches and exports are stored directly in the system – not in separate spreadsheets.
Different vouchers, one single foundation
At Christmas, Easter or Black Friday, guests look for gifts or special offers. At the same time, corporate customers need larger quantities, promotions require their own codes, and your team still needs to process transactions quickly at the till. If vouchers are not managed cleanly in the system, extra work arises: designs are searched for, amounts checked, remaining balances queried, redemptions verified and data manually compiled for accounting.
- Designs and amounts are gathered afresh for every occasion
- Remaining balances are queried verbally
- Corporate customer quantities are maintained as separate spreadsheets
- Accounting receives transaction details with a delay
- Status of individual vouchers cannot be tracked
- Occasion, design and promotion centrally configured
- Remaining balance visible during payment
- Bulk quantities managed as batches with status statistics
- Accounts, cost centres and export prepared
- Status per voucher traceable across its life cycle
One voucher workflow. Five tasks. One system
From creating the voucher type to the accounting export, every step takes place in the same system. Your team does not jump between tools, but works along a clear, unified process.
Configure
Set up voucher type, amount, validity, design, notice text and sales channel to suit your cinema and the occasion.
Sell
Your guests buy the voucher at the box office or online – as a print@home PDF, physical delivery item or gift card.
Redeem
Vouchers and balances are redeemed during payment. Multiple gift cards can be combined, while remaining balances stay visible.
Manage
Batches, series, status and validity remain easy to track. Cancel or manually reset vouchers with appropriate permissions.
Evaluate & export
Status, redemption, accounts and transactions remain transparent. You can export the data and pass it on to accounting.
Monetary value, ticket, snack – or everything combined
You decide what your cinema wants to sell. A monetary value voucher gives your guests complete freedom of choice. A ticket voucher covers the cinema visit. An item voucher adds popcorn, drinks or other concessions to the gift. Discounts can be represented as a fixed amount or percentage. And if you want to sell a ready-made package, you can bundle multiple vouchers into a combined voucher package.

A remaining balance that brings guests back
Balance spanning multiple visits, visible during checkout.
The gift card holds a balance that lasts across multiple visits. Any remaining balance stays on the card and can be topped up at the till. Your guests can redeem multiple cards in a single payment transaction, and the remaining balance is transparently viewable.

- Top up at the till
- Combine multiple gift cards in a single payment
- Remaining balance visible to your team
Looks like a gift, not a receipt
Designs for various occasions, tailored to your cinema’s layout.
Vouchers can be styled with templates for different occasions – standard, Christmas or Easter. Your guests can add a personal greeting message, and the finished PDF reaches them in your cinema’s custom layout. Additional custom notes can also be printed on physical vouchers.

What value do our gift cards and vouchers bring?
Your revenue stays with you
Your gift cards and vouchers are sold via your own online shop and box office. No third-party providers, no commission. Revenue stays in-house, and your guests come directly to you.
Concessions sold earlier
With combo vouchers, tickets, snacks and drinks are all part of the gift. What is usually decided in the foyer can now be purchased before the cinema visit.
