Business Wire
AMC moviegoers can order their snacks ahead of
their arrival and skip the line at all AMC locations in Boston,
Denver and Houston; more markets to roll out throughout 2019
AMC Theatres® (NYSE:AMC), the largest theatrical exhibitor in
the United States and the world, today announced its intentions to
greatly expand guests’ ability to skip the line at the concessions
counter by ordering ahead online and through the AMC Theatres
mobile app. Food & beverage mobile ordering is now available at
all AMC locations in Boston, Denver and Houston, with more markets
expected to be added throughout 2019.
Between these three markets and the AMC locations where guests
are already enjoying mobile ordering, AMC anticipates nearly 150
AMC and AMC DINE-IN locations will offer the Food & Beverage
mobile order option by the end of this summer.
AMC’s mobile order option is a perfect complement to the scores
of moviegoers who are buying their tickets online and on their AMC
mobile app. With just a few extra clicks, guests can add popcorn,
drinks and their favorite AMC snacks to their ticket purchase. The
food is prepared fresh and is ready at a designated time, allowing
guests to get to the theatre and pick up their snacks at the
Express Pick-Up kiosk located near concessions or, in select
locations, have the food delivered right to their seat, skipping
the concession line entirely.
“We are routinely seeing some 45 percent of all AMC ticket
purchases processed online, and the mobile order option is another
way we’re making a trip to the movies more convenient for guests,”
said Tonya Mangels, Vice President, Product Marketing, AMC. “Now
guests who are already breezing past the box office with their
mobile ticket purchase can go straight to the express pick-up kiosk
to grab their mobile-ordered food or have it delivered to their
reserved seat, depending on the location.”
For a limited time, guests who use the Food & Beverage
mobile order option online or on their AMC Theatres mobile app can
save up to $5 off of their food and drink purchase by utilizing
exclusive mobile special offers.
