Frequently asked questions

CINFINITY strengthens cinemas through:

  • More visits to the movies: Subscribers go to the movies more often on average.
  • Stronger customer relationships: Cinema is once again becoming a regular part of everyday life and remains more in the minds of guests.
  • Additional sales: Subscription visits lead to additional tickets, especially for regularly booked accompanying persons.
  • Transparent remuneration: For every CINFINITY visit used, the cinema receives a comprehensible remuneration.

This is how the ticket booking works:

  • Booking in the app: Subscribers book their ticket directly in the CINFINITY app.
  • Cash register connection: The app accesses the movie theater's online ticketing system; the booking arrives regularly in the box office system.
  • Control at the movie theater: Surcharges, seating categories, special formats and local pricing logic remain with the respective cinema.
  • Accompanying tickets: Accompanying persons can be booked directly in the app at the regular price.

The results show:

  • Overall market: German cinemas recorded around 2.2 percent more visitors and around 6 percent revenue growth between 2024 and 2025.

  • More regularity: CINFINITY makes cinema more of a recurring leisure choice.
  • More tickets: Subscription visits also lead to regularly booked accompanying tickets.

The app offers:

  • Simple booking: Tickets are booked directly in the app.
  • Safe to use: The booking is digitally validated and forgery-proof checked at the entrance.
  • Cash register connection: The booking is made via the movie theater's online ticketing in the box office system.

CINFINITY stands for:

  • Founders from the industry: CINFINITY was founded by cinema operators Ralf Thomsen and Martin Turowski.
  • Team with cinema know-how: CINFINITY is backed by experience in cinema, market research, software development and marketing.
  • Infrastructure from the industry: CINFINITY was developed as a system from cinema practice for cinema practice.
  • Cross-cinema connection: CINFINITY connects cinemas and visitors without replacing the local role of individual cinemas.

For movie theaters:

  • Payment per visit: The cinema receives transparent remuneration for every CINFINITY visit used.
  • Billing according to use: The visits actually booked and used are billed.
  • Pricing remains with the cinema: Regular ticket prices, surcharges, special formats and local regulations remain the responsibility of the cinema.
  • Supplement instead of replacement: CINFINITY complements normal ticket sales and is not intended to replace them.

Accompanying tickets are an important effect:

  • Over 15 percent: The proportion of accompanying tickets at CINFINITY is currently over 15 percent.
  • Regular tickets: Accompanying persons do not book a subscription ticket, but a regular ticket at the normal price.
  • Joint visits to the movies: A subscription visit often turns into an evening at the movies with friends or family.
  • Additional range: Subscribers talk about their cinema visits and bring cinema into their personal environment.

Small and medium-sized cinemas in particular benefit from this:

  • More visibility: The cinema appears in a cross-cinema app and can also be found outside its own channels.
  • More frequent visits: The subscription can motivate guests to go to the movies more regularly and spontaneously.
  • Local ties: Visitors are more closely tied to their movie theater and the local cinema experience.
  • Strengthening the cinema structure: CINFINITY supports the entire cinema structure, especially in rural areas.
