MoviePass offered unlimited movie tickets for $9.95 per month. A single ticket cost $15. They lost money on every single customer. The business model was essentially "step 1: lose money on every transaction, step 2: ???, step 3: profit." The CEO said they'd make it up on data. They did not make it up on data.
