WashConnect® is a powerful, scalable, web-enabled, management solution ideal for multi-site petro operators with car washes.

The reporting is task and role-specific and so robust that you have across all levels of your organization…from shift detail, site, group, region, nation and global corporate.
WashConnect is easily adaptable to your reporting and performance needs. This customer example reflects specific data flowing from the individual site level, rolling up to the national level, then fully aggregated at global, corporate headquarters. This company establishes marketing initiatives at the HQ global level and migrates the initiatives down to the national, regional, and individual site levels.
Global operational car wash data including payment information is captured by WashConnect from all levels of your business. This information is exported to the specified accounting, controller or CFO levels of the organization. Financial managers are able to review and analyze every aspect of car wash performance data to refine improvements and migrate success strategies throughout the network.
Key to the network management power of WashConnect is the ICS Auto Sentry line of unattended point-of-sale terminals. They capture all POS transactional data and report it to WashConnect. The terminals offer a range of payment options for customer convenience including credit and debit card, and touchless. Digital messaging welcomes your customers to the site and provides wash instructions, as well as special offers or upsell opportunities. The effectiveness of these promotions can be analyzed and refined with WashConnect data.
