Introducing SMARTCOINBOX: Convert Your Domestic Laundry Machine into a Profitable Coin-Operated Unit!

Are you tired of tenants taking advantage of your free laundry services? SMARTCOINBOX is the solution you've been waiting for. Our innovative device easily converts your domestic washer and dryer into coin-operated machines, ensuring you regain control and maximize your profits.

With SMARTCOINBOX, you don't need to invest in expensive commercial washers and dryers. Our device allows you to utilize your existing rugged and reliable household machines. The only difference is that SMARTCOINBOX provides a secure coin-operated system, eliminating the need for costly repairs associated with wired coin devices directly attached to the machine.

Installation is a breeze. Simply mount SMARTCOINBOX on the wall above your machines and plug them directly into the device. It's compatible with all washers and dryers through a standard plug, a 3-prongs plug or a 4-prong plug.

Our coin-operated system accepts both quarters (USA) and MQTEK tokens for flexible payment options. You can set the desired time per coin, such as $0.25 (USA) for 30 minutes or $0.25 (USA) for 45 minutes. A convenient countdown display ensures transparency and accountability.

SMARTCOINBOX not only helps you generate income from your machines but also prevents misuse and abuse. Say goodbye to tenants washing a single shirt with a full water capacity or running the dryer for an unnecessary 60 minutes. By introducing a pay-per-use model, you discourage excessive laundry usage and maintain control over utility costs. This is especially beneficial for rental properties that include laundry services in the rent.

Worried about changing circumstances? No problem. If you decide to sell your property, you can easily remove the control panels and install them elsewhere, giving you the flexibility to adapt to different locations. SMARTCOINBOX is an investment you can keep, unlike stand-alone commercial laundry machines.

We stand behind the quality and durability of our product. That's why we offer a comprehensive one-year warranty on all parts and labor. Rest assured, SMARTCOINBOX is proudly North American made and does not rely on expensive circuit boards for operation.

Take back control of your laundry machines, eliminate abuse, and start generating additional income with SMARTCOINBOX. Don't let skyrocketing utility bills and tenant misuse be a headache any longer. Order your SMARTCOINBOX today and enjoy the peace of mind and financial benefits it brings to your rental property.

* WE STRONGLY SUGGEST USING ONLY

ONE APPLIANCE PER SMARTCOINBOX UNIT *

Please note that high-efficiency (HE) washing machines often have load-sensing capabilities that may adjust cycle times dynamically. The SmartCoinBox operates on a fixed timer and does not adjust to changes in the machine’s cycle length. As a result, additional coins or payments may be required to complete a full wash or dry cycle if the machine extends its run time.

For the best experience, we recommend using the SmartCoinBox with machines that do not have load-sensing features, as they provide more consistent cycle times.

We are not responsible for any interruptions in service due to variations in machine cycle times. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.

Stackable Washer and Dryer:

Some stackables come with ONE plug. If this is the case you will only need the SmartCoinBox ECD137, HEAVY DUTY.

Stackables that come with two power cords, washer and dryer, you will need ECW682 and ECD137 Smartcoinbox.

Coin-Operated

The coin-operated Smartcoinbox model accepts both USA quarters and MQTEK supplied tokens, and will run for a preset time per coin. ONE TYPE OF COIN ACCEPTED AT A TIME: Either a quarter or our supplied tokens. There is a coin tray that collects payment on the inside of the Smartcoinbox, which will need to be emptied regularly.

You can set the desired time per coin. There is a countdown display that accumulates every time a coin is inserted. Say $ 0.25 (USA) for 30 minutes or $ 0.25 (USA) per 45 minutes, for example. The appliance will stop running when the accumulated time on the Smartcoinbox display screen reaches zero, REGARDLESS of the machine's cycle status. In order to finish the machine's cycle, more coins need to be added to the Smartcoinbox. Please note that the machine may remain locked until the cycle is fully completed. You may adjust the timer settings as needed.

Pay-By-Phone

PayRange's BluKey device comes wired and installed with the Pay-By-Phone Smartcoinbox models. This model is then paired with their mobile app, creating a transaction service for the customer. Tenants are to maintain a prepaid balance on their smartphones and use it to make payments when using the washer or dryer. PayRange takes a percentage of every transaction. Payment is then released to the landlord once a week.

IMPORTANT:

PayRange service requires data connection on user's smart phone device. Prior to purchase and installation, verify location has adequate cellular reception or a wifi network signal that user's can access. The PayRange app communicates with the PayRange enabled machine via Bluetooth connection on the consumer's phone.

We have collaborated with PayRange to integrate their technology in our Smartcoinboxes. Payrange's BLUKEY comes wired and installed with purchase, all you have to do is register the device on their website (www.payrange.com) and you are good to go.

Funds to you will be transferred at the end of each settlement term (once weekly). PayRange collects machine sales from Sunday to Sunday and deposit weekly payments into your bank account each Tuesday (banking holidays apply).

There are no months hardware fees and no monthly contracts. BluKey devices collect 3.49% USA (4.25% Canada) per credit card transaction. PayRange accepts Credit/Debit card, Apple pay, Google pay, ACH from bank account, and EBT.

No, you do not need an electrician to install your Smartcoinbox.

The SmartCoinBox box is used to control the power flow to the washer/dryer through an electrical plug. This system is a plug-and-play system.

SmartCoinBox is easy to install. The Smartcoinbox will mount on 4 screws, on the wall just above the appliance and the appliance would plug directly in the receptacle inside the Smartcoinbox. The Smartcoinbox may be locked with a padlock to secure the coin-tray on coin-operated models, to be unlocked by the landlord only.

See below for mounting details:

*We STRONGLY suggest to have the Smartcoinbox available for QUICK DISMOUNTING if service is needed*

REMINDER:

ECW682 and ECD137 are safety certified by INTERTEK-ETL using CSA Standard C22.2 No. 128 under file number 1009104.

Do not use in any other application except for laundry machines and other loads not exceeding the approved capacity. Indoor use only. Do not modify or alter the wirings.

SMARTCOINBOX device is designed to control the electrical power flow to the washer/dryer through an electrical plug-in. SMARTCOINBOX would mount on the wall just above the machine and the machine would plug directly into the device. SmartCoinBox is totally independent of the machine cycles. In order for the cycle to finish, the user will need to insert the appropriate amount of coins or pay the appropriate amount on the app to give the machine ample time to finish the cycle. If the Smartcoinbox timer reaches ZERO before the cycle is finished, the user must insert more coins or load more money onto the app to finish the cycle. Please note that some machines may remain locked until a cycle is completed.

To overcome this problem we recommend making chart as shown below.

Assuming $1 coin for 20 minutes:

IMPORTANT:

Some new High Efficiency appliances have a load-sensing feature. The appliance senses the size of the load and adds the correct amount of time for the load size. This feature on newer machines may cause cycle times to vary, based on the size/density of the load. While the time displayed on this appliance is an estimate, it is not a guarantee. The appliance may add time to the cycle if it feels it needs more time to complete the cycle. This may require customers to pay more money per cycle, as the cycle time depends on their load size.

SmartCoinBoxes uses a single coin only.

Options are the following:

Loonie ($1 coin - Canada)

Twoonie ($2 coin - Canada)

Quarter ($0.25 coin - USA / Canada)

Tokens ( SmartCoinBox Supplied)
