Los Angeles, December 8 , 2016 – Atom Tickets, the first-of-its-kind mobile movie ticketing platform, announced today that it will now offer users the option to pre-order food & beverage and skip the concession lines at AMC Theatres. The enhanced service launches today at 28 AMC locations nationwide.
Atom Tickets continues to reach new users with its convenient and socially driven ticketing service that is revolutionizing the film and ticketing industry. Atom enables exhibitor partners to maximize their revenue streams by utilizing the app’s social invitation features and pre-ordering of tickets and concessions to draw larger audiences and increase ticket sales.

Atom Tickets makes it easy for moviegoers to check reviews and showtimes and to coordinate movie outings among friends allowing each person to pay separately. The user-friendly app enables moviegoers to pre-pay for food & beverage items with just a few taps. Atom Tickets makes going to the movies faster, easier and more social than ever – providing a VIP entertainment experience that lets users bypass lines for tickets and concessions.
“Through the AMC app, we’ve had great success offering our guests the convenience ordering their food and drinks ahead of arriving at the movie, and we’re excited that our guests can now enjoy the full Atom Tickets mobile experience by incorporating the option to pre-order,” said John McDonald, executive vice president, U.S. Operations, AMC.

How it Works:
Atom Tickets re-imagines the most convenient way for users to plan a night out at the movies. Available for free on the Apple App Store and Google Play, the app provides relevant reviews, trailers and synopses to help customers make the best decision on what to see. Moviegoers may then invite friends (via Facebook or their contact lists) to purchase their own tickets to join them. Atom Tickets enables seamless ordering of tickets and concessions from any Android or iOS phone. At the theater, consumers go directly to the ushers and concession counters, where they simply scan a QR code at tablet kiosks. Paper tickets and IOUs have been replaced by Atom’s innovative platform, which keeps all plans, messaging, payment and tickets in one place.
