    Increase to $3 to start

    NO MORE QUARTERS! I do not have a bill breaker, but it's something that I've been researching. I think it would be a good idea to have one. Obviously, it won't make you any money, but I get the convenience that it provides to customers. Meters, vacs, and vending only take cash and card via...

    Direct Mail Marketing

    I did direct mailer with a code for a free car wash after I renovated a location back in 2015. We sent thousands out in the surrounding areas and had a 1% redemption rate for the free car wash. My new location that was renovated this year, we did a grand opening and washed 100 cars in the...

    Increase to $3 to start

    I raised all my prices this year. Self serve bays are $4 to start for 5 minutes. $5 minimum for credit cards. Eliminated quarters all together. Vacs went from $1/4 minutes to $2/5 minutes. I've had a couple people question it and my response is always, "what do I need to charge to run my...

    Nayax Old

    As much as I thought you were crazy, I changed that setting and disabled the cancel button on the Nayax and have not seen a duplicate minimum charge since then. Thanks for the help. I will monitor closely to ensure that it's fixed. Thanks, Lighthouse

    Nayax Old

    VPOS Button Function=Disabled? Is that the correct parameter? It was set to external cancel and I changed to disabled. I will try to see if this helps. Thanks, Lighthouse

    Nayax Old

    I have a question for Nayax users with count up. I am having a random situation where a customer swipes, activates and begins washing. After a few minutes, the timer stops just like someone hit the stop button. Customer has to swipe again, will run for a few minutes, then turns off again. I...

    Unitec/DRB Portal power supplies

    Anyone having issues with bad power supplies in the Portal's? I have 2 that I purchased and installed this spring. I replaced the power supply in one 2 months ago, and have a bad one in the other over the weekend. DRB was talking about installing "line conditioners" on the incoming power to...

    Nayax count up

    You can wire the "door open" wire from the nayax to a stop button. It's the light green one. Other side of the stop button is the Gray ground wire and the Dark Brown ground wire. Simple to do. You will have to enable the external stop button parameters on the Nayax from the web portal. I...

    Nayax weak signal

    I have mine connected via Ethernet and no antenna installed. They work great that way. You do need the Nayax cable though.

    New pump stand or new equipment advice

    I installed Etowah Valley's low pressure stand about 2 months ago. So far, I love it. It's compact and simple, but everything is where you can work on it and it's made from parts that I can buy from Windtrax or Kleen-rite. As far as HP pumps, I think you can over think them. You can rebuild...

    Looking for new touchless car wash system. Any recommendations/suggestions?

    I would wait a few weeks until after the ICA show. Manufacturers always roll out the new equipment and features at the show. See if there is anything new on the market first.

    Boom vac hose size?

    I recently installed new pay per use JE Adams vacs mounted on poles with the swivel booms. JE Adams told me that the hoses had to be 1-1/2. Not sure if that is because of weight or the connection to the boom, but I am having constant issues with the hoses plugging up. My normal vacs at other...

    Nayax Old

    UPDATE! Nayax called me back. This is soooooo simple to fix. Click on Operations, machines. Hit search to bring up the list of your bays. Select the one to make a change to. Click the "attributes" tab at the top mid/right side. Under the Group header, select filter and search for Device...

    Nayax Old

    I've looked everywhere for those attributes and can't find them anywhere. I guess you are correct that they have to be enabled by Nayax. Problem is, I've been trying to contact them since last Wednesday.......now 1 week later, still no response. Frustrating tech support, but I like the...

    Nayax Old

    Got my Nayax readers installed on my Ginsan doors. They look great and work well but I can't get the external stop button to kill the credit card count up charge. I have the Green door open wire from the nayax on one side of the switch and the brown and gray "ground" wires on the other side...
