5.3 Fundraisers
The fundraiser is a code-activated promotion intended to encourage supporters of an organization to use
the car wash. No discount or other benefit is provided to the user at the wash but usage of the fundraiser
‘code’ is tracked and reported. The operator will typically donate a set amount to the organization for each
wash purchase where the fundraiser code was entered. Fundraisers can be configured to apply to any of
the available washes and usage can be controlled by a schedule and a limit for the total number of
redemptions allowed.
When a fundraiser code is entered and validated, a thank you message will be displayed and washes that
are not associated with the fundraiser will be removed from the product selection screen.
5.4 Scheduled Specials
Scheduled specials are discounts that are scheduled to automatically be applied at certain times and on
specific days. The special can be configured to apply to any and all of the available washes and the amount
of the discount can be set to vary for each wash package. When a scheduled special is active, the price
posted for the associated wash will be reduced (on the wash section screen). The car wash operator can set
up scheduled specials so an additional discount can, or cannot, be applied when the special is active.
NOTE: The Wash Select II is limited to 2 programmed scheduled specials at a time. Any specials that are
setup with a discount price that is higher than wash package price will be ignored by the Wash Select II.
5.5 Prize Promos
The prize promotion is a slot machine style promotion that allows for customers to play a game and
win either discounts or vouchers. The prize promo screen is presented to the user after payment is
complete but before the wash is dispensed. A maximum of three prize promotions can be
configured at one time
. Customer participation is optional.

Any active prize can be awarded when the prize promo is presented (in accordance with the
configured prize limits)

The award frequency can be configured independently for each prize promo.

Any three of a kind wins one of the (up to) three prizes.

The redemption method is always a code printed on a receipt.
