MoviePass™ to Temporarily Interrupt Service to Complete Improved Mobile Application

Enhanced Technology Platform Expected to Significantly Improve Subscriber Experience

NEW YORK--()--MoviePass™, a premier movie theater subscription service, said today it is temporarily interrupting its service for subscribers in order to complete its work on an improved version of the MoviePass™ mobile application based on an enhanced technology platform.

The interruption will be effective at 5 a.m. ET on July 4, 2019, and no subscribers will be charged during the interruption period. Subscribers will be automatically credited for the number of affected days once the service continues. Subscribers will not need to request a credit or contact MoviePass™ customer service to get the credit. During this period, no new subscribers will be enrolled.

“There’s never a good time to have to do this,” said MoviePass Inc. CEO Mitch Lowe. “But to complete the improved version of our app, one that we believe will provide a much better experience for our subscribers, it has to be done.”

The company also plans to use this time to recapitalize in order to facilitate a seamless transition and improved subscriber experience once the service continues.

In a letter to subscribers, Lowe said that MoviePass™ has been working hard to improve its groundbreaking subscription service to ensure it meets its ultimate vision.

“We have listened and we understand the frustrations of our subscribers,” he said. “To provide the level of service you deserve and we can be proud of, we need to improve our mobile app. We plan to make this improvement by utilizing an enhanced technology platform, which is in the final stages of completion,” he continued.
