Designed for simplicity and security, Alliance Laundry System’s Scan-Pay-Wash, cash-free technology doesn’t require an app download or costly bolt-on card readers. Instead, owners and customers benefit from an easier way to manage payments quickly and securely. 

What Is Scan-Pay-Wash?

Speed Queen® laundromat customers scan a QR code on the machine, pay using their credit card or mobile wallet and start using the laundry equipment. No wait. No app required. Customers can optionally sign up for the app after the transaction to start receiving rewards, too. 

This feature integrates seamlessly with existing laundromat management software—like Speed Queen Insights—to provide store owners with real-time data, reporting, remote access and an added extra layer of control.

“Scan-Pay-Wash is another example of our technology team listening to our customers and meeting their needs,” said Joe Hainline, Chief Technology Officer, Alliance Laundry Systems. “As a global leader, our goal is to always innovate with purpose—making our customers more successful.”
