Step 1 - Make your selection on the washing machine (example. hot, colors, extra rinse)

Machine says, "PLEASE INSERT $7.00"

Press the price selection button on the WashCard terminal and scroll through the variable pricing options until you find "$7.00" and swipe your card.

WashCard terminal authorizes funds and then sends $7.00 worth of coin pulses to the machine and starts the wash.

"But wait! I actually wanted to add the super-cycle for another .50 cents!" you say?

The WashCard terminal will display "Wash Upgrade" pricing options for the next X seconds while the machine is filling up with water. During this window of time you may scroll through the pricing options and add additional money because you didn't put enough in to start or you decided you needed to add some additional wash option to the cycle.

Please note that you can have any number of pricing options, wash upgrade options as you feel makes sense based on your equipment and pricing scheme. The WashCard System does not replace coins, it replaces the need to add coins by hand. Instead of moving the quarters from your change-cup to the coin acceptor, you are conveniently moving quarters from your bank account to the coin acceptor.
