Filmgrail + Jack Roe

Jack Roe's Tapos is a long-established ticketing and point-of-sale system in UK exhibition, with the operational depth you would expect from a company whose history runs back through Film Row. Cinemas on it are rarely looking to move.

Filmgrail reads programme, session, seating and pricing data from Tapos, owns the website, the native apps, the content and the online checkout, and writes the completed sale back so the box office record stays authoritative.

Ticketing and POS, counter hardware, ticket types and pricing, stock and concessions, and the reporting your managers use daily.

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.
