Fleet and corporate accounts for car washes
A taxi operator with twelve cars, a company pool or a rental fleet will not pay at the gate every time. They want a monthly bill. Suds lets you run accounts with a credit limit, makes the numbered invoice at the end of the month and keeps every shilling owed in plain view.
Why fleet customers matter
One fleet account can bring dozens of cars a month, on weekdays when the wash is otherwise quiet. Fleet managers choose a car wash that makes their paperwork easy: one invoice a month, with every car and every service listed. More habits that grow a wash in how to run a car wash business in Kenya.
Accounts with a credit limit
The owner decides who may run a tab and how much. Account cars are washed and released unpaid, and Suds keeps them against the account until the limit is reached. Deciding who gets credit stays the owner's call; cashiers cannot open accounts.
A numbered invoice at the end of the month
At the end of the month Suds makes a numbered invoice listing every car and service on the account, ready to send to the customer's accounts department. With KRA eTIMS switched on for your business, each sale also carries KRA's invoice number, which company customers need to claim the expense. See eTIMS for car washes.
Debts from walk-in customers too
Not every debt is a fleet. When a regular customer is short today, the car can be released unpaid and the amount is kept against them. When they pay, the oldest debt is cleared first, so the balance always makes sense.
Customers who owe can get a reminder on WhatsApp with a statement of what they owe, built from the record as it stands that day.
See who owes you
The owner sees every account and every customer who owes money, how much and since when, from their own phone, and can export it to Excel.
