    Hamilton Goldline swap over to Cryptopay.. Pros and Cons?

    Ok. Got ya. I don't use token notes. I tried a coupon and only had 3-4 use the code so not worth it. I should be ok since I will just set up four different codes for each wash amount 8, 10, 12, and 14.

    Hamilton Goldline swap over to Cryptopay.. Pros and Cons?

    thanks for the information. Hamilton has been great, but I had some bad credit cards get swiped or something and it locked up the machine for a week. Of course I was on vacation, the service guy ( on a saturday) did get me up and working again. But to lose a week of revenue was hard to swallow...

    Hamilton Goldline swap over to Cryptopay.. Pros and Cons?

    I'm doing mine tomorrow, hopefully the swap out was fairly quick. Kuddos to Hamilton.. Their service is great, Saturdays etc... just the damn dial up and modem is what drove me to the cryptopay. This month alone I've lost 10 plus days with CC processing problems. I ordered the kit UPS Red from...

    Hamilton Goldline swap over to Cryptopay.. Pros and Cons?

    Just want to get the good and bad for changing over the Hamilton Goldline to Cryptopay. I have cryptopay already on my bays and vacs. Never really any issues. The older goldline keeps having issues, phone line problems, credit cards not batching and locking the system down ( for days while I...

    Why dont Vacuum rates mirror self serve wash rates?

    I get $2.00 for 4 minutes with cash/coin and $3.00 for 6 min with cc. The reason for this is so that once they swipe their card they can put it back up and just worry about cleaning the car. No complaints and been like this for years.

    Wash World HV Washes "invisible" car

    Anyone ever see a WW HV wash do a complete cycle, soaps, Triple foam, dryer, etc with no car in the bay? Watched on the camera, lady pays for wash and the WAIT light comes on. The HV begins a complete wash before she enters? It eventually times out with car stuck in bay, 15 min shutdown and then...

    More joys of ownership

    Brings up a good point. Anyone tried the wifi water sensors that you place on the floor to alert if water is detected. Like he said he just checked the cameras and "saw" the leak. But what if he hadn't? I have a few I'm going to try? Opinions?

    RO membrane filter

    Sorry to sound stupid... But the wash I took over 5 years ago, I imagine has the original Ro membranes and the original carbon in the tank? This wash is about 20 years old. But is there a water check ( i have a test kit) I can do on the Rinse water tank and deem the membranes are bad/ carbon...

    Carwash blower philosophy, questions from a new wash owner.

    Waxman said it perfect. I have the same setup. And give 65 seconds. Some people use the full 65 and some run right through it. I give the dry on all washes even my cheapest one ($8.00) customers expect this in my opinion. It really doesn't cost that much to run them, they are three phase motors...

    Re wash codes for people not paying attention to back up light

    MEP.. I agree. I do the same, if they want a refund I gladly give it.. Most take a free wash. The only problem I have is that with the older Hamilton goldline I have to change the code whenever I give it out. but to be honest I have given it out a few times and just told the customer it is a one...

    The 75 Cent Mystery

    Not trying to be an ahole. But you have time to count the coins and bills from each unit? and compare them to a counter? Maybe I'm the idiot for not doing it.
