Filmgrail + COMPESO

COMPESO has specialised in cinema ticketing and concession sales for decades and describes itself as the market leader in Germany. Cinemas running it have well-established process, and the local specifics — Kinoticket conventions, German payment habits, the reporting a German operator expects — are baked in.

Filmgrail does not touch any of that. We read programme, session, seating and pricing data, take over the website, the native apps, the content and the online purchase, and write the completed order back into COMPESO so the box office record stays single.

Ticketing, concessions, counter hardware, pricing and the full reporting stack, along with the local conventions and payment arrangements your operation depends on.

First we look at what your deployment exposes. That is a short technical conversation, not a discovery workshop, and it ends with a straight answer about whether the integration is a week of work or a quarter of it.

Then the build: your branding, your content model, your seat maps, your ticket types, your checkout rules. You review it on a staging site against your real programme, not a demo dataset.

Then launch, with your old URLs redirected rather than dropped so the search visibility you have built comes with you. Apps follow the site, usually a few weeks behind, because the CMS and the content are shared and there is no point shipping an empty app.

Nothing in that sequence requires you to touch the box office, which is why the risk of trying it is so much lower than it feels.
