wouldn't it be great to get a unlimited movies for a year pass like you pay for a full year and you can go to the movies any time as many times as you want for a full year. everyone else is on subscription service might as well be the cinemas
Absolutely. Sinemia and similar movie subscription services had me going to the movie more frequently than ever.
Too bad they could not make it work financially.
They probably must make more on weekend and peak rate tickets than give a subscription even though they are empty like most of the weekdays apart from very famous titles for first few days
How much would it be for this service?
a reasonable price would be between 100 and 200 a year. but no idea if they would ever do this.
Depends but it can be tier based - high tier can book during the first week of film release lower tiers on successive weeks (incl./excl. weekends). Most cinemas would earn a lot from candy bar section so I don't think they need to up their ticket prices/subscription prizes - a popcorn and drink costs same as movie ticket but the profit must be twice if not more compared to selling tickets..
sounds about right. can also make it heavily subsidized instead of totally free. e.g $2 or $5 a movie, something like the costco model
ahh righteo i assumed it was done in the past but this is a good idea and am all for it. there could also be specials and discounts on gold class and other associated services
They don't even staff the entrance anymore. They make more from selling popcorn than checking tickets.
I have a friend in Ireland and they have this monthly pass for unlimited movies… not that expensive either… it’s so good!!
15% of the cards have not yet been used.
What do you mean by this?
Where do you put in the code?..
It's on the end payment page
Oh on mobile I had to click the drop down arrow on the “Order summary“ to find it.
Still can't find !!
You can stack with the ShopBack 5% cashback on Cinema giftcard https://www.shopback.com.au/ecommerce/skugroup/SBV_CinemaGif…
then use the Cinema giftcard to purchase the Hoyts giftcard
Thank you for this tip
Cinema cards are not working when trying to pay….
How do you make it work? It says "Your payment couldn’t be verified. Try again or use a different payment method."
Even if it does work. HOYTS only has fixed value giftcards $30 $50 $100 $150. If you buy a $100 TCN card the maximum you can use is $80 to get $100 HOYTS giftcard. Then you have to spend $20 normally in the cinema, without 20% off, and you get $5 from shopback. So in total still 20% off with extremely more hassles to manage 2 gift cards and shopback.
Unless I'm missing something, this "tip" is a trap.
yep i'm having the same problem trying to buy a $100 gift card using the cinema card and I'm getting the same error (flames)
I didn’t buy the cinema card today but successfully use cinema card to purchase hoyts GC today
Did you use the card from the TCN app to make the purchase?
ok well at least you got it working. Yes brought the TCN gift card through shopback to get the extra $5 off. But when you put the details into Hoyts to buy the gift card it comes up " Your payment couldn’t be verified. Try again or use a different payment method."
Thanks for sharing! Yes, I did use the TCN app to get the card info.
One thing I noticed is the date on your screenshot and mine were both wrong (9 Dec vs today 8 Dec). I suspect that the TCN server might be treating the cards purchased today as invalid because they were technically created in the future? Probably I will try again later this week to confirm that.
As mentioned, even if it works we won't be able to gain any extra $ than just buying directly from hoyts gc due to the $100 limit from shopback and the fixed values of hoyts giftcards. If only shopback offers $200 giftcards or hoyts offers customised values on their giftcards it would be great…
@tajid: Unfortunately no. Nothing works for me.
The card cannot be verified for online purchases.
I'm working with TCN support to either make it work or get a refund on that.
@kelvin-200: Are you entering the card number, expiry and CVV directly? If so, have you tried Apple Pay or PayPal instead?
@VantageXL: I did try entering card details directly, Paypal, Google pay into Revolut. None of them worked.
@kelvin-200: Apple pay works for me (Cinema GC just purchased today)

Will Netflix buying Warner bros be the death of cinema ?
Hopefully for Marvel movies!
Hi OP, just wanted to confirm that the 20% code will end on 22 December 2025?
Nice one for Avatar
OP will there be a discount on VIP pass?
yes you can use the uber eats deal then put the gift card in the check out
Yay. Uber eats extended the promotion
Oh no, bought it last week when it was 15% off…
Cineworld offered unlimited movies membership in UK. Totally worth it
Is this working still? Appears to be replaced with 10% off
Code still works, 20% off. I just bought an e-card with that code today. Thanks OP :)
Working, got 20% off
thanks, this will negate their price increases across the board.
