Sinemia drops prices for its movie ticket subscriptions, which now start a $3.99 per month
MoviePass competitor Sinemia is lowering prices on the already low-cost movie ticket subscription plans that it introduced earlier this year.
Its monthly prices are being cut by $1 across-the-board. The cheapest plan now costs $3.99 per month, which gets you one standard movie ticket for that month. The priciest one, which covers three tickets (and includes 3D, 4D and IMAX screens), now costs $13.99 per month.
Sinemia says it's also offering discounts on its family plans, and on plans in Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia.
You might think that this summer promotion (which ends on September 3) seems timed to take advantage of the negative publicity around MoviePass' new "peak pricing" for popular movies, and Sinemia's press release doesn't exactly deny it — the release literally begins: "At a time when MoviePass is running surge pricing ..."
Sinemia subscribers also benefit from being able to purchase tickets in advance. And unlike AMC's Stubs A-List program, Sinemia isn't limited to a specific theater chain.
One caveat is that these plans are billed annually, so you'll be making a bigger commitment upfront. On the bright side, this presumably locks in the lower price for a full year.
“With the release of highly-anticipated summer blockbusters, and with seasonal temperatures hitting record highs, we want to provide moviegoers a more affordable way to see must-watch films and get a break from the heat," said Sinemia founder and CEO Rifat Oguz in the release.
