Customer Engagement
Auto Passport RFID
Vehicle Tag Recognition System
Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) is a technology whereby data encoded in RFID tags or smart labels are captured by a reader via radio waves.
Auto Passport utilizes this technology and brings it to the car wash industry in the form of RFID Tag Recognition. As a pre-paid customer approaches the wash gate, the overhead Auto Passport instantly receives the RFID information from their RFID windshield decal, welcomes the customer, asks if they would like any upgrades, opens the gate, and queues their wash.
So while the Auto Sentry® flex payment terminal is delivering your car wash's personalized presentation, a two-lane Auto Passport system can process more than 30,000 cars in one month.
With RFID technology, we can identify, time-stamp and store information on each vehicle that passes through the wash. And all happens automatically, without user interaction.
Some of the Auto Passport RFID features include:
Auto Passport LPR
License Plate Recognition System
A second system option for automated gate entry is the Auto Passport License Plate Recognition system. Similarly to the RFID Tag Recognition, the License Plate Recognition system automatically identifies and welcomes the pre-paid customer, asks if they would like any upgrades, opens the gate, and queues their wash. However, with this system the customer is electronically identified by their vehicle’s license plate number.
Some of the Auto Passport LPR features include:
Digital Menu Boards
Keeping Your Customers Informed, Engaged, & Safe
On-site facility signage plays an integral part in any car wash operation and helps guide customers every step of the way from the moment they enter the wash property. Signs can be used for:
- Directions
- Information
- Promotions
- Education
- Upsell Options
- Special Offers
- Gift Cards
- Club Programs
- Wash Package Menu
- Dryer Countdown
- Gratitude/Thank You

But ultimately, all on-site car wash signage has one goal... TO DRIVE REVENUE!
The ICS, indoor/outdoor, Digital Menu Board is the next step in the evolution of the on-site car wash sign and features a 46” ultra-bright display that is sunlight readable. Digital Menu Boards support graphics, animations – even HD video – and are fully customizable.
