GSC e-ticketing

Purchasing movie tickets from GSC is so easy now. Last time, whenever my sister wanna go watch a movie, she'd have to go a day earlier just to buy the ticket so that it won't run out by the day she wants to watch it. Plus the jam and time wasted...such a hassle.

Now, you can do it all online. I know i know, they have the booking system ages ago but you STILL have to go there 45 minutes before the show starts to collect your ticket, and you can't choose your seats (unless you're really early and there's still good seats to choose from or if the staff attending to you is nice to you).

Now, GSC offers not one, but two method to pay for tickets purchased online. Credit card, and Maybank2U, which I really really love. It just makes life so much more easier, 3rd party transfer, prepaid purchase, bills...now movie tickets too? Walau ehh!!

With this service offered by GSC, not only can you book your tickets (only up to 2 days in advance from the show date) for up to 12 tickets per transaction, you can also choose your seats! :D This, me likey!

The sad thing about this service however, is that it is only offered to 8 GSC branches for now (GSC Signature-Gardens, GSC Mid Valley, GSC Pavilion KL, GSC 1 Utama-New Wing, GSC Berjaya Times Square, GSC Gurney Plaza, GSC Queensbay Mall and GSC Sunway Carnival!) but hey, I don't have problem buying my tickets earlier for other cinemas (GSC Sungai Petani, or MBO Malacca) that I usually visit. Its those big crowded ones that are a hassle.

Kudos GSC for including Maybank2U payment. Tis a great move, methinks...hee :D

Hi I was just wondering whats the latest time you need to collect the e-payment tickets from the cinema... is it like the phone booking or can you collect them say like 5 mins before the movie?

Hi :)

Yes, with e-payment, you can collect it 5 minutes before showtime.

There's 2 types of booking. One is normal seat reservation booking, which you do not need to pay. This, you need to collect 45 minutes before movie starts or your seats will be given away.

In e-payment booking, you will have paid for your tickets via Maybank2u or some other method of payment (same goes for the credit card I think, I'm not too sure cuz I haven't used credit card before). So, you can come collect the tickets whenever you want. Once, we came late (I blame to long queue at the collection counter :P ...haha!) and they even issue us the tickets.

Oh thats great news!!!

see got a special day planned out for a friend of mine starting with lunch at either bellygood @ sunway mentari or chillies @ mid valley followed by a movie at signature as she hasn't been to the one at signature as yet and finishing with a trip to baskin robbins..

I'm really hoping the day goes smooth as she's being going through a rough few weeks with work and the tuitions she gives to pmr and spm students, so its gonna be a surprise for her and i've got the lunch and ice-cream part sorted but will not have much time to go collect the tickets 1st...
