RemoteStart (Free Start) Machines

One of the unique features of the Tangerpay solution is the ability for store owners and
nominated staff to start machines for free straight from their phone, from anywhere in the world at any time of day or night.

A very common application of this in laundromats is where a customer rings the store owner as they have experienced a coin jam on a machine or because a washer did not spin correctly. Using RemoteStart, the store owner can instantly apply credit on another machine for the customer and resolve the customer’s complaint immediately.

Using RemoteStart
To RemoteStart a machine you just need to use Mobile Pay and visit your online storefront (on your smart phone or laptop) just like any customer would. When you get to the payment screen just enter your RemoteStart code (you received in your welcome email) into the Promo Code box onscreen and you'll see the Proceed button change to "Free Start". You get up to 30 activation free remote starts per store per month.

Enabling RemoteStart
When you sign up, you'll automatically get a RemoteStart code in the welcome letter you receive. If you want to setup more RemoteStart codes for your site it's a breeze, just login to Admin Portal and it's all available in the Promo Code menu option.

Changing your RemoteStart Code
Changing your code to something you can easily remember is quick and easy. Just login to Admin Portal, select your RemoteStart Promo Code and change the 5 character code to something you'll remember. Remember to make it unique enough that a customer can't guess it.

Tracking RemoteStart
For full and easy visibility, you will receive the usual instant email notification for all RemoteStarts and all RemoteStarts are also itemised in your daily transaction report.
