Loyalty for car washes

Keep every car coming back for a wash

Personalised offers and rewards are the top technology reason drivers give for switching car washes. Perk gives them a reward to come back for and keeps your wash in their phone wallet.

The car wash retention challenge

A clean car doesn’t
guarantee a return visit.

Customers drive past several washes every week. The one that rewards them and stays in touch is the one they pull into.

Unhappy customers leave quietly

Car wash retailers estimate 53% of dissatisfied customers come back for a rewash, but only 17% of consumers say they do.

Non-members wash less when money is tight

Economic pressure is more likely to reduce how often non-members wash than push customers to cheaper washes.

Rewards are what make customers switch

29% of consumers say personalised offers and rewards would most likely convince them to switch car washes, yet only 54% of retailers run a digital loyalty platform.

How Perk helps

A reason to pull in
to your wash.

Customers leaving quietly

Spot them before they’re gone

Perk sorts customers by how recently and how often they visit, so you can reach the ones who have gone quiet.

Non-members washing less

Reward every wash

Give non-members a stamp card, so every wash moves them closer to a free one.

Customers want rewards

Personal offers, in their wallet

Send targeted offers to chosen segments by push notification, straight to the card in their phone wallet.

Why loyalty matters

Car washes run on
returning drivers.

Loyal customers keep washing, even when budgets are tight. Building that loyalty is the steadiest way to grow.

The car wash visit rhythm

Every wash sets up
the next one.

Drivers wash when their car needs it, and the weather decides a lot. Perk keeps your wash top of mind when it’s time again.

First wash

The driver gets a wash and saves your loyalty card.

Stamp collected

Every wash adds a stamp they can see in their wallet.

Timely nudge

A reminder or offer lands when it’s time for another wash.

Next wash

They pull in again and move closer to their reward.

Ready-made programs

Pick the program that fits
how your wash works.

Perk supports several loyalty formats, so you can match the program to how your drivers wash and spend.

Still have a question? Email us at hello@umiusperk.com.

Do my customers need to download an app?

No. They save your card to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet in a couple of taps.

Can I reward every wash?

Yes. A multipass card lets you sell prepaid packs of washes.

How do my staff add stamps?

Staff scan the customer’s card with the Perk scanner in any phone’s browser. Each team member can have their own login.

Can I send offers to chosen customers?

Yes. Send push notifications to all customers or a chosen segment, and schedule them for the day and time you want.

How do I bring back customers who stopped coming?

Perk sorts customers by how recently and how often they visit. Choose the ones who have gone quiet and send them a targeted offer by push notification.
