# Movie Theater POS Software for Congo-Brazzaville

Picture a sold-out Friday: the ticket queue clears before the trailers roll, every seat and surcharge is priced right without anyone thinking twice, and the popcorn combo gets offered on every single sale — while you watch the night's takings climb from your phone. That's what a cinema running on EliteTeQ feels like. The packed openings that used to overwhelm your team become your smoothest, most profitable nights — the reason a blockbuster in Congo-Brazzaville turns into your biggest payday instead of your most stressful shift.

Turn your busiest, most chaotic nights into your smoothest — and most profitable — ever, in Congo-Brazzaville and beyond.

## Problems We Solve

- **The 7pm Blockbuster Lands and the Queue Misses the Trailers** — A big release opens and the whole town arrives in one twenty-minute window. If selling a ticket is slow, the line snakes out the door, people miss the start, and the concession counter — where your real margin lives — never gets the rush because everyone is still queuing for tickets.
- **Same Seat Sold Twice, or a Screen Double-Booked** — Multiple screens, back-to-back showtimes, 2D and 3D of the same film — juggled by hand. Two people end up holding tickets for the same seat, a showtime gets scheduled on the wrong screen, and your staff are apologising in the lobby instead of selling.
- **Tickets Sell but the Popcorn Money Slips Away** — Concessions are where a cinema actually makes money, but if snacks and tickets are separate transactions, the upsell gets skipped in the rush, combos are rung up wrong, and the high-margin sale you depend on quietly leaks at the counter.
- **Matinee, Student, Member, 3D Surcharge — Priced by Memory** — Cheaper matinees, student discounts, member rates, format surcharges — staff are working out the right price in their heads at a busy window. They undercharge, overcharge, or wave a discount through, and across a packed weekend the leakage is real money.

## How EliteTeQ Solves It

- Sell tickets fast on a POS built for peak-hour rush, so the line clears before the show starts. *Audiences get to their seats on time and reach the concession counter — where your margin actually is.*
- Manage screens, showtimes, formats, and seating in one place so a seat or slot can only be sold once. *No double-booked seats or misscheduled screens, and your staff sell instead of apologising in the lobby.*
- Sell tickets and concessions in one transaction with combo deals built in and prompted at checkout. *The high-margin concession upsell happens every time, basket size grows, and the queue still moves fast.*
- Set prices by seat class, format, and time so the right fare and surcharge apply automatically. *Every ticket is priced correctly at speed, and weekend leakage from guesswork at the window stops.*

## From the EliteTeQ Team

**We know the popcorn counter is where a cinema really earns.** We know the opening-night queue that misses the trailers, the seat sold twice, and the combo upsell that slips away in the rush. EliteTeQ was not built in a boardroom — it was built next to real cinemas in Nairobi, clearing peak queues, managing screens and seating, and driving concession sales. So when you message us, a real person replies — someone who understands ticketing, showtimes, and concession margin — not a script. No jargon, no pressure, and an honest answer even if it is "you might not need us yet."
