SeatSnag

Stop refreshing Cineplex. SeatSnag watches showtimes across Canada and tells you the second great seats open up.

Overview

Premium format screenings sell out fast. If you want two seats together in the right row for an IMAX 70mm opening weekend, your only option used to be refreshing the Cineplex seat map and hoping a return came back into inventory at the right moment.

SeatSnag turns that into a background job. You tell it the theatre, the format, the rows you will accept and how many seats you need. It then checks the showtime every five minutes and sends an alert the moment a matching set of seats appears, so you can book before anyone refreshing manually notices.

We built and launched it as an in-house product, covering the product, the interface, the subscription plans and the brand. It runs across Cineplex theatres Canada wide and is free to start on one movie.

What it does

Inside the product.

Checks every five minutes
Continuous monitoring of Cineplex showtimes across Canada, so returns and released holds get caught quickly.
Alerts where you already are
Notifications by email, Telegram, SMS or WhatsApp. No app to install and no dashboard to sit and watch.
Seat level preferences
Pick the theatre, the format, an acceptable row range and your party size. Seats together are matched as a group.
Advance ticket alerts
Get told when tickets for an upcoming release go on sale, rather than finding out once the good seats are gone.
Free plan to start
One movie monitored on the free plan with no credit card, with paid tiers for people tracking several releases.
Premium formats covered
IMAX 70mm, VIP and other premium formats are first-class filters, which is exactly where good seats vanish fastest.
