Continuous crawling

Overview

Eurostar Snap sells tickets at up to 50% off, released in small and unpredictable batches. TrainWatcher polls availability around the clock and alerts subscribers the moment a tracked date opens, so they book on Eurostar’s site before the batch is gone.

The problem

  • Snap batches open at random, often at night, and vanish within hours.
  • Travellers refresh the page several times a day and still miss the opening.

The Tellter answer

  • A continuous crawler on Eurostar’s public availability endpoint, twenty routes in both directions.
  • Paid real-time alerts by e-mail and SMS, with a “no drop, refunded” guarantee.
