Discounts can increase in amount for each consecutive visit, if customers return within a predetermined number of days. There are two independent customer tracking systems within WashConnect for cascade pricing:
- Auto Sentry: Set up a Frequency Promotion for wash services. This is only applicable to the Auto Sentry payment terminal.
- Touch POS: Set up Cascade Pricing for wash services. This is only applicable for the Touch POS Express, In-Bay, and Full-Service profit centers. Cascade Pricing at a Touch POS terminal is redeemable against a customer’s wash.
