Phone charging for movie theaters

Guests need their phones for the ticket before the film and the ride home after it. During the movie, the phone belongs in a pocket, which makes it the perfect time to charge. A Juiceboxx station in the lobby lets guests do exactly that.

The low battery shows up at the ticket podium

A guest with a phone at 5% worries about scanning the ticket and getting home. A station in the lobby solves both: rent a power bank, and the phone charges in a pocket through the whole film.

The lobby window is short

Guests spend a few minutes in the lobby before the show. Place the station near concessions or the ticket podium, where guests already wait, without crowding the line.

Why a power bank beats a locker

A locker keeps the phone away from its owner for two hours. A power bank keeps it in their pocket, ready for an emergency call. The power bank comparison covers the difference.

What front-of-house staff do

Nothing beyond pointing to the station. Staff never handle rental payments or returns. Guests pay $2 for each 30 minutes, capped at $12 per 24-hour day, in the Juiceboxx app.

Which theaters fit best

Multiplexes with steady evening and weekend crowds, and theaters with a bar or restaurant where guests arrive early, are the strongest fit. The longer guests spend in the lobby before and after the film, the more natural it is to rent. Tell us your screen count, showtimes, and lobby layout to start.

What it costs the theater

Nothing. There is no setup, placement, or installation fee. Juiceboxx supplies, installs, and services the station, and your theater earns commission under a hosting agreement written for your location.

After the credits

Guests leaving a late show often need their phone for the ride home right away. If they rented before the film, their phone is charged. A station by the exit lets them return the power bank on their way out, and the rental closes automatically.

Make sure returns work after the late show

If the lobby closes before the last film lets out, guests cannot return the power bank on the way out. Choose a spot that stays reachable until the final credits. The venue guide and rental terms cover the rest.
