The Coventry Transport Museum has announced a new partnership with ticketing software company, Gantner.
As part of the deal Gantner will implement its access control and ReCreateX POS software systems, which offer a complete automated software solution for sales, membership and visitor-tracking, throughout the museum.
The museum, which attracts more than 360,000 visitors a year and is home to two of the fastest cars in the world, has recently introduced annual admission charges, and will use part of the additional income to refesh and enhance the attraction.
New additions to the museum will include an excitiing new programme of temporary and touring shows from around the world, the first of which will be a highly immersive exhibition designed to inspire visitors of all ages and abilities to move and play.
Admission will remain free for Coventry residents, thanks to GOCV cards supplemented by Coventry City Council. Gantner developed a bespoke integration within the ReCreateX system to support the GOCV cards.
