Self-Service Car Wash Mobile Payment Solution

An integrated solution for communities, gas stations, parking lots, and auto service shops, offering pay-per-use, member top-up, and time-based pricing. Customers scan to select a package, wash and go. Owners manage accounts remotely, enabling 24/7 unattended intelligent car wash operations.

Industry Pain Points

Management challenges in traditional self-service car wash operations

πŸͺ™

Coin Change Hassles

Traditional car washes rely on coin or cash payments. Customers often give up due to lack of change, and cash collection and counting consume significant labor.

πŸŒ™

No Nighttime Operations

Nighttime car wash demand is high, but without unattended payment, peak evening and holiday revenue is lost.

πŸ“‰

Opaque Revenue Data

Unable to track real-time revenue, usage frequency, and peak hours for each machine, leaving pricing and operational decisions without data support.

EFL Solution

Two operational models to meet different car wash scenario needs

Plan 1

Pay-Per-Use / Time-Based Plan

Ideal for single-point car washes in communities, gas stations, and parking lots. Customers scan to select packages like water, foam, or vacuum, pay, and the machine starts automatically. It stops when the water volume or time is used up, with no manual intervention needed.

  • Supports multiple packages: water, foam, vacuum, wax coating, etc.
  • Automatic power and water activation after scan-to-pay, with precise timing/volume control
  • Auto-stop with voice reminder when time or water volume is exhausted
  • Supports add-on purchases without re-scanning
Pay-Per-Use Plan
Plan 2

Member Top-Up + Time-Based Pricing Plan

Perfect for car wash chains and auto service shops. Offer membership top-up cards to attract repeat customers, set low prices during off-peak hours to drive traffic, and standard prices during peak hours to maximize profits.

  • Member top-up with discounts and cashback to boost loyalty
  • Low prices during off-peak hours for traffic, standard prices during peak hours for profit
  • Points redeemable for free car washes to stimulate frequency
  • Referral rewards for low-cost customer acquisition
