Ferry Booking & Ticketing Software

Keep ticket control focused on the departing sailing.

Give the departure team a practical way to check tickets for the sailing they are boarding. Keep ticket control connected to the booking rather than a separate paper-only list.

Select the departure before scanning

Choose the relevant service in the ticket-control app, then scan the passenger ticket. Staff need to read the result and resolve exceptions before allowing boarding.

An exception at the boarding point

Most passengers arrive with the expected ticket. Some arrive for a different departure or need a booking correction. Give the scanning team a clear next action for each result: continue the ordinary control process or refer the passenger to someone authorised to resolve the booking. The same procedure should work for a ticket on a phone and a printed document.

  • Select the sailing before control starts
  • Read the result for the presented ticket
  • Refer booking changes to the responsible role

Separate a sale from admission

A paid booking and a boarding decision are different events. A ticket can belong to another departure or require staff review. Define which team resolves those cases and how changes are communicated to the boarding point.

Prepare for busy departures

Use a short working procedure for the normal scan, a missing ticket and a changed booking. Test the devices and connection at the actual boarding location, not just in the office.

Match the app to the role

Ticket control is available on iOS and Android. The iOS app also supports ticket sales. Confirm the device and workflow requirements for each boarding position.
