Curbside Laundries – which provides wash-dry-fold POS and pickup-and-delivery solutions to more than 350 laundromats across the U.S. – has released a progressive web app, created to help simplify the scheduling of laundry pickups. This app will be made available to all Curbside clients at no extra charge, and it will be custom-branded with each laundromat’s logo.
“We knew the app was important for pickup and delivery, but as laundry owners, we also know you can lose prospective customers by sending them to the app store,” said Matthew Simmons, co-founder of Curbside Laundries. “One bad review, less than 100 downloads or a competitor’s app can dissuade someone from placing his or her order – and then there goes $70. Now, we have an app without the downside of the app store.”
The Curbside progressive web app can be downloaded directly from the laundromat’s website.
“Now, each laundromat will have its logo on its customers’ phones,” Simmons added. “Scheduling a pickup is one tap away. The app fills up the entire screen, and it feels more responsive than a website.”
