Ticketcorner Ski rebrands to Ticketcorner.Peak for year-round sales
Swiss ticketing company Ticketcorner has renamed its mountain railway platform from 'Ticketcorner Ski' to 'Ticketcorner.Peak'. The move, announced on October 22, 2026, signals that the platform now supports year-round sales for mountain railways, destinations, and distribution partners, not just winter ski tickets. The platform, launched in 2008, was the first in the Alpine region for online ski ticket sales. No new features or changes to apps, ski cards, or distribution channels were announced. The rebranding aligns with industry trends: a 2024 study showed summer transport revenue for Swiss cable cars grew 45% between 2014 and 2022, and a 2026 summer season saw a 10% increase in first entries compared to the previous year, while winter skiing faces challenges from climate change. Ticketcorner is jointly owned by German ticketing group CTS Eventim and Swiss media house Ringier.
Rebranding of a regional ticketing platform; minor relevance to AdTech/MarTech as it involves marketing strategy but lacks significant industry impact.
