A car wash membership app for your unlimited wash club.
MeetScarlet is a car wash membership app published under your name: members buy your unlimited wash plan in your app, add their plates, and drive up to a gate your attendant runs by plate or pass code. When it rains after a wash, one tap gives them a free re-wash. $349 a month for one site, or $499 for up to three.
What your clients do in the app
Your clients download an app with your name on it from the App Store or Google Play, or open it on the web. In it they can:
- Buy your unlimited wash plan or a pack in the app, and pay by card
- Add their plates, up to the number you allow
- Show their pass at the gate instead of giving their plate
Made for how car washes work
A gate check by plate or pass
Your attendant types the member's plate, or scans the pass in their app with a camera, and gets a green or red answer straight away. Plates that match no member are slowed down after a number of tries, so nobody can test which plates are members.
One wash at a time
You set the time between washes, two hours to start with. It counts every plate on the account and every one of your sites, so a second car or a friend in the queue does not get a free wash on the same plan.
Rain checks
When it rains, the attendant turns rain on for that site. Every member who washed there in the last day gets one free re-wash credit, which the gate uses on their next visit. Credits run out after 14 days, and you choose how many a member can hold.
More than one site
On MeetScarlet Pro, run up to three sites. The attendant picks the site at the gate, rain is turned on per site, and every wash is recorded against the site where it happened.
What we set up for you
For a car wash we set up your unlimited wash plan and any packs, switch on the Shop tab so members can buy them in the app, set your plate format, the number of plates per member and the time between washes, and add your sites.
We import your client list from a spreadsheet or CSV export and do the App Store and Google Play submission work in your own developer accounts. 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.

When MeetScarlet is not the right fit
- Washes that need the gate to open on its own when a plate camera reads a plate. MeetScarlet gives your attendant the answer; it does not connect to gate or tunnel hardware.
- Car washes that want customers to book a time slot for a detail. MeetScarlet's car wash setup is for drive-up members.
