Ticketing Software Set Up By CineStar and Vista Receives VdF Certification in Germany

CineStar software, provided by Vista Entertainment Solutions, (‘Vista Cinema’) is now a VdF certified system, satisfying all cinema governing body requirements in German. Cinema associations in Germany have agreed to provide a cross-platform ticket sales system using standardized POS systems moving forward. At the same time a ticket issued by the Spitzenorganisation der Filmwirtschaft e.V., the body which represents the German film industry, is no longer necessary.

Vista Cinema is the world's leading provider of cinema management software with installations in more than 70 countries. Vista has provided operational software to CineStar since 2012. After piloting Vista in CineStar cinemas, Vista Cinema’s POS ticketing software has now received the necessary VdF certification.

“Together with Vista we have met the challenge to adapt an international software for the German market,” said Oliver Fock and Stephan Lehmann, Managing Directors of the CineStar Group. “For example, it was important to portray the different VAT rates and FFA dues, and of course the necessary positions for the VdF certification properly in the system.”

“We are thrilled that Vista Cinema has met the complex technical requirements perfectly and has received the VdF certification,” says Mr Fock.

"Vista is thrilled to have received certification from the VdF,“ said Mischa Kay, Managing Director Vista Entertainment Solutions, EMEA. “As one of the largest cinema exhibition markets in Europe - and in fact globally - the opportunities that Germany opens up for Vista Cinema are exciting both for us and we hope, for cinema exhibitors. It has been our privilege and pleasure to work with VdF’s Managing Director, Johannes Klingsporn, and his team over the past few months and we will strive to honor the support that Vista has experienced by extending the expertise and reputation of Vista to the German cinema community. Of course, we are immensely grateful for the efforts of our dear, long-time partners at CineStar - we could not have achieved this milestone without them!"
