Car wash software in Kenya: the complete guide

This guide covers what car wash software does, the features a Kenyan car wash needs and how to choose and set it up.

Core features

At the till

• Number plate first, then the wash: body, interior, engine, full valet.
• The washer who did the job.
• M-Pesa with its code, cash, card or a mix; change worked out.
• Products (air fresheners, polish, accessories) on the same receipt.

Customers and cars

• History for every number plate.
• Owner's name and phone when you have them.
• Fleet and company accounts with credit limits and statements.

Washers

• A rate per washer: percentage or flat fee per car.
• Earnings, advances and payouts on record.

Loyalty

• Every Nth wash free, counted by plate; the till shows when it's due.

Money

• Daily totals by cash, M-Pesa and card.
• Expenses: water, soap, electricity, rent.
• Daily and monthly profit.

How to set it up

1. Sign up and choose Car wash.
2. Add your washes and prices as services: body wash, interior, engine, full valet.
3. Add products you sell, with stock.
4. Add your washers and their commission rates.
5. Set your loyalty rule.
6. Add fleet accounts with credit limits.
7. Open the till and start washing.

How to choose

Ask to see a full wash recorded by plate, a washer's earnings for the week, a loyalty free wash and a fleet statement. Check it runs on a phone, takes M-Pesa and shows profit after expenses.
