Micrologic or MeetScarlet: a car wash app with your name.
For a car wash that wants a member app with its own name at a published price, MeetScarlet is the better pick: $349 a month for one site with the app included, while Micrologic prices WashCentral, its point of sale and membership system, per location, with the branded app as an added module, and sends the figure on request. MeetScarlet's setup is $999 on monthly billing and free on yearly. We make MeetScarlet; every Micrologic fact here comes from Micrologic's own pages.
Which should you pick?
Who wrote this: the team that makes MeetScarlet. We compare from each vendor's own public pages, read on November 1, 2026, not from a hands-on test of the rival. Where a vendor does not publish something, we say so rather than guess.
Pick MeetScarlet if you want a member app with your wash's name, rather than a new system, at a price you can see before any sales call: $349 a month for one site with the app included, and setup free on yearly billing. Our team sets the app up and submits it under your own Apple and Google accounts, members buy unlimited plans and packs in it, and your attendant checks their plate or pass at the wash.
Micrologic may suit you if you want one system for the whole wash, from point of sale and gate readers to member self-service, AI support and campaigns, across one site or a network.
Why car washes pick MeetScarlet over Micrologic
- A published price with the app included: $349 a month for one site, or $3,490 a year with no setup fee; Micrologic adds the branded app as a module and sends its price on request
- Your app is published under your own Apple and Google developer accounts; Micrologic submits its apps to the stores, and its pages don't say whose accounts hold them
- No new point of sale or gate system to adopt: MeetScarlet adds the member app, and your attendant checks members by plate or pass
- Our team imports your member list from a spreadsheet or CSV export and sets up your plans, packs and sites as part of setup

Questions to ask on a Micrologic demo
Micrologic's public pages leave these open, so ask before you sign:
- What is the per-location price for my wash, with the branded app included?
- Is the app published under my own Apple and Google developer accounts?
- Which hardware do I need to buy, and can I keep my current gate and readers?
- Who owns the app listing and member data if I leave?
- If you leave, can you export your client list, and what comes with it?

Moving to MeetScarlet
We import your member list from a spreadsheet or CSV export, then set up your plans, packs and sites as part of setup. About 4 to 6 weeks for the store apps, most of it Apple's enrollment. Your web app's link is ready during setup, and members can book there as soon as you choose your MeetScarlet plan. They keep the same account when the store apps launch.

Does Micrologic have a branded car wash app? #
Yes. Micrologic's Wash Digital includes an iPhone and Android app listed under your wash's own name, which Micrologic submits to the App Store and Google Play, plus a branded web portal (read November 1, 2026).
How much does WashCentral cost? #
Micrologic prices WashCentral per location, depending on your number of locations and the modules you add, and sends the exact figure when you tell it how many locations you run. MeetScarlet's price is published: $349 a month for one site with the app included, plus $999 setup on monthly billing, or $3,490 a year with no setup fee.
Can MeetScarlet replace WashCentral? #
For the member app, yes: MeetScarlet sells memberships and packs in an app with your wash's name, and an attendant checks members by plate or pass. It is not a point of sale or gate system, and members ask the desk to change a plan.
Is this comparison independent? #
No. We make MeetScarlet, and we recommend it to car washes that want a member app with their own name at a published price. Every Micrologic fact comes from Micrologic's own pages, dated, and we say where Micrologic may fit better.
