Fandango, the nation's largest movie ticket provider, is expanding its service further into the mobile arena by adding Cingular to its roster of cellular partners.
Earlier this month Fandango, which relied solely on selling tickets through the Internet, began migrating from PCs by partnering with Sprint Nextel offering movie ticketing and information and movie-related text-messaging."Moviegoers are often attached at the hip to their mobile devices," Fandango CEO Art Levitt said, adding that the service's traffic has doubled from month to month. "Now Cingular Wireless users can quickly, easily and discreetly check reviews, showtimes and purchase tickets." By going to mobile.fandango.com wireless users can obtain tickets, comprehensive movie information including reviews, showtimes, theater amenities, directions and maps, and downloadable offerings such as movie-related ringtones, wallpapers and games.
