Fandango and Visa are partnering in a promotion allowing consumers to receive location-based information and deals through Fandango’s iPhone application.
As a result, Visa signature cardholders will be able to link their accounts to the Tixpress iPhone app to express order tickets at the checkout. Information regarding film times in nearby locations is given to users who can also receive offers such as discounts on Fandango gift cards. Free tickets for buying two or more tickets on Friday are also available.
“Tixpress was custom-developed with Visa Signature account-holders in mind, who are looking for time-saving ways to make their moviegoing decisions,” said Jessica Yi, chief product officer at Fandango, Los Angeles.
