Using Sinemia to get a seat for my friend while I use Movie Pass for myself?

Hey, so I have a weird question. I have Movie Pass, and I also have Sinemia. I have an extra use for a standard showing on my Sinemia account that I'm not gonna use for anything else before it expires at the end of this month.

Tonight I'm planning on seeing Annhilation with another friend who doesn't have either service. Would it be okay to use Movie Pass to get my own ticket, and Sinemia to get my friend's ticket? Otherwise the use would just go to waste.

Anyone tried something like this? Is it against the terms of service for either company? Is there anyway they would realistically find out anyway?

I’ve done this before, and I don’t see why you wouldn’t be able to. Just make sure to buy each ticket in a separate transaction (I’d say, just give the Sinemia card to your friend after checking in and have them buy their ticket with it as if it were theirs). It shouldn’t be a problem.

Yeah I was just gonna do separate transactions at the kiosk. However, I just noticed that the showtime I was gonna go to isn't listed in the Sinemia app for some reason. All the other showtimes for Annhilation are there though, and the show definitely isn't sold out or anything and it shows up in Movie Pass and on the theater's websites. So now I need to figure out what's up with that.
