Descriptiontext

TicketNew is a privately held Indian online movie ticketing platform founded in 2007 and headquartered in Chennai. It operates as an agent-based intermediary that sells movie tickets on behalf of theatres, promoters, and venues across India, earning commission on each transaction and a non-refundable per-ticket convenience fee. The platform is consumer-facing through its own website (ticketnew.com) and an associated mobile app, supporting film search, cinema search, showtime selection, and pre-booking for upcoming releases with the ability to select up to three cinemas to improve confirmation chances.

The platform's core technology is a live integration with theatre booking systems, which enables real-time display of seat availability and pricing pulled directly from partner inventories. TicketNew does not set ticket prices or determine seating locations; these are controlled by theatre partners. The product surface is narrow: a single ticketing flow with order history retrieval via mobile number, plus terms-and-conditions, refund, and security policies consistent with standard ticketing intermediaries. Payment methods include Visa, MasterCard, UPI, and netbanking, with stated intent to add further options.

The go-to-market is product-led/self-serve, relying on direct website and app access for Indian individual consumers. The company's customer base is fragmented across individual moviegoers with no disclosed enterprise or institutional customers; theatres and promoters are distribution partners rather than revenue-paying customers. No funding rounds, M&A activity, leadership changes, or product launches are disclosed in the available data. A notable external signal is the platform's static assets being served from Zomato's CDN (b.zmtcdn.com), suggesting a possible infrastructure, white-label, or ownership relationship with Zomato that is not explicitly documented in the source material.
