Challenges

Sound familiar?

Most car wash owners struggle with the same problems — problems that cost time, money and customers every day.

High staffing costs

Daytime staffing eats into the margins. Recruitment and scheduling take time away from the core business.

Limited opening hours

Closed evenings and weekends = lost revenue. Customers who want to wash outside business hours go to the competitor.

Fraud & unpaid washes

Without smart identification and Pay-Before, revenue disappears. Hard to track, hard to prove.

Manual processes

Cash handling, unreliable card terminals and no real-time overview. Downtime costs money.

What we offer

Hardware and software — from one supplier

We deliver both what we install in the wash bay and the platform that runs the business. All tailored to your facility.

We help you with every part of the business

Eight building blocks that make the wash bay self-running

From first identification to consolidated invoice — we cover the entire business flow.

Identify the vehicle

LPR camera, UHF windshield tag or QR — we know who arrives based on the licence plate.

Control access

Open gates, doors and signals so the right vehicle is let in at the right time. Access groups and time schedules per customer.

Take payment

Swish, card, vouchers, prepaid balance and invoice. Pay-Before or Pay-After — the customer chooses.

Control the wash

Trigger the right wash programme on the machine and control peripheral equipment. Integration with Prowash, Tammermatic, Kärcher and more.

Meter & bill consumption

Fair billing based on actual consumption — time, water, pressure. Flow meters and timing as standard.

Run subscriptions & loyalty

Build recurring revenue through subscriptions, prepaid balance and a customer club. CRM with campaigns and night-time discounts.

Run the facility unmanned

Remote control, alarms, monitoring and queue management. Emergency stop with automatic shut-off. Alerts via SMS or email.

Integrate with the outside world

Connection to accounting systems, CRM and large corporate customers' own systems. Monthly and consolidated invoices via email.

Our goal: help you sell more washes per open hour.
