Looking for a WDF POS?

A WDF POS is wash, dry, and fold point-of-sale software: the system a laundromat uses at the drop-off counter to weigh a bag, price it, tag it, and tell the customer when it is ready. Smart Laundry Basket is wash and fold POS software for that counter, plus pickup and delivery. Wash-Dry-Fold POS, often called WDF POS on its own site, is a different company.

What a wash and fold POS has to do

Staff take the bag, weigh it on a scale or from a photo of the scale, price it by the pound or by the bag, print a tag, move it through wash, dry, and fold, write the rack slot, and text the customer when it is ready. Smart Laundry Basket does that in a browser on a tablet, PC, or phone. Payments go to your own Stripe account.

  • Wash and fold, pickup and delivery, or commercial accounts are the part of the business you want software for.
  • You want a published price, free under $1,000 in monthly revenue and never more than $149 a month.
  • You want to keep the coin or card system already on the floor.

  • You want their laundry-card integrations and you operate in the United States.

Payments, scales, and the monthly price

You connect your own Stripe account, including Stripe Terminal for cards at the counter. There is no setup fee, and Smart Laundry Basket does not take a percentage of sales. A USB or serial scale in Chrome or Edge on a computer fills the weight in. Any phone can weigh from a photo of the scale.

Commercial accounts, staff tools, and self-hosting

Commercial accounts, including hotels, Airbnb hosts, and other linen customers, get one consolidated invoice. Staff use a PIN time clock and checklists. Several locations roll up to one company dashboard, and webhooks connect Zapier or Make. The software is source-available under the Elastic License 2.0: free to use, modify, and self-host for your own business. You may not resell it as a hosted service. An optional POS Kit is $2,249 once: tablet, stand, receipt printer, label printer, and cash drawer, with setup and shipping included.
