Business owners have a lot to worry about, and many focus on how much money they’re bringing in. However, it’s also important to consider costs, and to try to limit them as much as possible in order to increase profits. If you run a self-service car wash or laundromat, one simple way to lower costs is to get a card reader with multi-pulse mode.
What Is Multi-Pulse Mode?
Multi-pulse mode is a version of single price mode which allows card readers to connect to multiple pulse machines at once. With multi-pulse mode, operators set a price for their service and then connect one single payment device to up to six machines.
What Are the Benefits of Multi-Pulse Mode?
Multi-pulse mode helps operators save money on hardware. Instead of purchasing a card reader for each machine, you can purchase one for every six machines, helping limit those up-front hardware costs.
Using one payment device for six machines also helps simplify management and operations, and offers a simple payment experience for customers.
What Machines Is Multi-Pulse Mode Best For?
Multi-pulse mode is most popular for car washes and laundromats, and helps operators save a lot on operational costs.
Laundromats
Laundromats often have several washers and dryers, and it can be costly to buy a payment device for each one. This is why multi-pulse helps simplify the lives of self-service laundromat operators.
Self-Service Car Washes
Having one payment device at a self-service car wash not only helps lower costs, but also makes it easier for customers. You can have a designated pay area that is protected, and have customers pay there before they wash their cars.
Air/Vac Machines
If your car wash also has air/vac machines, you can get an additional card reader to connect those machines to and use multi-pulse there as well.
Multi-pulse mode is a convenient and practical solution for laundromats and self-service car washes. It simplifies pricing for both you and your customers and lowers your costs. By adopting multi-pulse mode you can save money and improve your bottom line, while also providing a simple and enjoyable experience for your customers.
