Tricket is a ticketing system built specifically for cinemas and movie theaters. It emphasizes “serving just one industry” to avoid the complexity and high cost of generic systems. It covers an integrated workflow from online ticket sales on the official website and on-site checkout to back-office scheduling, pricing, reporting, and payments, making it suitable for cinemas that want to centralize ticketing operations on a single platform.
Key features include online ticketing, reserved seating or general admission, a POS system, film and screening management, price configuration, scheduling, and financial and audience reports. Reports can show revenue, VAT, and sales data by film and time period, with support for filtering and Excel export. The back-office scheduler allows films to be dragged onto time slots and auditoriums, and existing screenings can also be copied. In addition to movie tickets, it supports sales of food, drinks, and merchandise such as coffee, tea, and T-shirts. For integrations, the text explicitly mentions Cineville, MaccsBox, Bioscoopbon, MailChimp, Filmdepot, as well as hardware such as payment terminals, ticket-checking kiosks, and barcode scanners.
Tricket uses a pay-per-ticket-sold model, charging a fixed fee per ticket. Costs decrease during slower seasons when fewer tickets are sold, and if a cinema is closed for renovation with no sales, there is no charge. Its page highlights no upfront payment, no complex contracts, no hidden administration or setup fees, and no support fees. If customers are not satisfied, they can migrate away, with the necessary data provided free of charge. On the service side, Tricket offers migration assistance, coordination with website developers for integration, staff training, and support via chat, email, and phone. Communication is available in Dutch and English.
Its strengths are strong industry focus, coverage of the key cinema ticketing workflow, and a per-ticket pricing model that reduces fixed-cost risk. Its payment and software/hardware integrations also appear well aligned with the Dutch cinema ecosystem. The drawbacks are that public information is still incomplete: it does not disclose the exact per-ticket price, free trial availability, permission controls, API details, data security certifications, or compliance specifics, and it does not mention a self-hosted option. As such, it is better suited to small and medium-sized cinemas, art-house cinemas, and independent theaters in the Netherlands or broader European market. Large cinema chains or customers requiring deep custom development should further verify API capabilities, permission management, security, and SLA terms.
Access from mainland China is not covered in the available text and would need to be tested directly. Payment methods such as iDeal and Cineville are clearly oriented toward the Dutch market and are not naturally suited to Chinese cinemas. Chinese users may first consider Maoyan, Taopiaopiao, WeChat Mini Program ticketing systems, or local cinema management software. Comparable international alternatives include Veezi, Vista Cinema, and Eventive.
