Gift Cards
Money today. A visit tomorrow.
RTS movie theater gift cards come as plastic cards or emailed e-gift cards. Sell them at the counter and on your website, and let guests redeem them anywhere they buy.
One Card System, Two Ways to Give
Every RTS gift card is a card number on the guest's account. Whether it lives on plastic or in an email, it works the same at every register.
A Gift They Can Hold
Your branded plastic cards, sold and reloaded at the counter or ordered online and mailed.
- Magstripe, barcode or both. Staff swipe or scan with the barcode scanner you already use for concessions.
- Sell, reload and check balances right from the selling screen.
- Order online, mail it out. Guests buy a physical card on your website, and you print the mailer slip from RTS.
- Easy to stock. Order cards from a card printer and RTS support loads the numbers into your POS.
A Gift That Arrives in Seconds
E-gift cards bought on your website and emailed straight to the recipient. No card stock and no postage.
- Delivered by email with a QR code ready to scan at the counter.
- Saved to the app. Recipients with an account can add the card to your RTS App.
- Perfect for last-minute gifts. Guests can buy one any time, right up to the birthday.
- Lost the email? Staff resend it from RTS, to the same address or a new one.

Questions Operators Ask
Do I need a special scanner for barcode gift cards?
No. The barcode scanner you already use for concessions reads RTS gift cards.
Where do I get plastic gift cards?
You order them from a card printer. RTS support can point you to a supplier and loads the card numbers into your POS so they scan and swipe.
Can guests buy gift cards on my website?
Yes. RTS gives you a gift card page you can link from your website, with a separate page for checking balances.
What if someone loses their e-gift card email?
Staff can find the purchase in RTS and resend the card to the same email or a different one. No call to RTS needed.
Can I see how much is outstanding on gift cards?
Yes. The Current Balances report shows the remaining value on every card, with a total at the bottom.
Can guests use gift cards online and in the app?
Yes. Guests can pay with an RTS gift card at the counter, at checkout online, in your app and at kiosks.
