Atom Tickets is an American ticketing company based in Santa Monica, California that sells movie tickets and services through its app and website in the United States and Canada.[3]

## History

Established on December 1, 2014,[1] Atom Tickets' Series A funding was led by Lionsgate.[4] It was started by three partners, Matthew Bakal, Ameesh Paleja, and Geoff Shaevitz.[5] Paleja says that the idea for Atom Tickets came about because he and his friends, "were frustrated with the experience of coordinating a night out at the movies with friends. Between planning the group and picking the movie, the theater, and the show time, plans often fall apart."[6] On February 1, 2016, they announced a completed Series B round of financing from investors that include The Walt Disney Company, 20th Century Fox and Lionsgate.[4] On May 21, 2018, Dwayne Johnson and Dany Garcia joined as investors and advisers.[7]

## Services

Atom Tickets allows users to buy movie tickets through their app or at their website. In addition to ticket sales, some theaters offer advanced concession sales through the service.[8]

In March 2019, Atom Tickets launched Atom Movie Access, a movie subscription service for cinemas that allows exhibitors to create their own customized movie subscription plan.[9]
