Carus partners with Hibernia Line to power new Ireland-France ferry service
Carus has been selected to provide a comprehensive IT suite for Hibernia Line’s new service between Cork and Boulogne-sur-Mer. Based in the Åland Islands, Carus will deploy its full portfolio including web booking, mobile applications, onboard point-of-sale, and integrated payment solutions. This partnership ensures the Irish startup launches with a robust digital infrastructure that has been deployed in record time.
Hibernia Line is an ambitious new ferry operator aiming to provide a vital direct link between Ireland and continental Europe. Utilizing the chartered ferries, the SAINT PATRICK and the AKKA, the service will offer daily sailings in both directions, starting in June 2026 to cater to the growing demand for freight and passenger transport directly between Ireland and Continental European countries. The project is led by industry veteran Aidan Coffey, who brings extensive experience in successful Irish-European maritime routes.
"As a company with deep roots in the ferry industry, we always look toward new projects with great enthusiasm," says Anders Rundberg, CEO of Carus. "Hibernia Line represents an exciting opportunity to showcase how our end-to-end digital portfolio can scale with a startup’s vision. We are thrilled to support this new route and ensure a seamless journey for their customers."
"We needed an established partner like Carus by our side to pull this project off in the necessary timeframe," adds Aidan Coffey, Managing Director of Hibernia Line. "Their expertise is invaluable as we build a professional offering that meets the high expectations of modern travelers and freight clients. This collaboration gives us the platform to launch a world-class service connecting Ireland and the continent."
