Leading-Edge Technology

For more than 59 years, Hercules has been establishing itself as an industry innovator on the Leading-Edge of laundry room technology. We were one of the first companies to introduce Smart Card operated laundry facilities, and nearly every one of our laundry rooms is now equipped with this advanced technology.

In New York alone, more than one million residents use the convenient Hercules Smart Card, which has a small embedded chip where information can be stored. The card is inserted into a card reader on the washer or dryer and the proper amount is automatically deducted—and the remaining balance is displayed.

Replacing old fashioned, coin-operated laundry systems with advanced Smart Card technology makes sense for residents and building managers alike because:

It’s more convenient for laundry room users. No need to count quarters or have change available to wash or dry clothes.
The Smart Card cuts down on vandalism. Unlike outdated coin-operated machines, there’s no money in any of the washer or dryers that are operated by the Smart Card, so there is no reason for vandalism of the equipment.
It’s easy to get started. Building residents can request and add value to their Smart Card quickly and easily.

Hercules CleanPay Mobile App

Hercules now introduces the CleanPay Mobile App, a new Smart Phone app, allowing building residents to start laundry room washers and dryers with the use of a Smart Phone. Residents can download the phone app from the App Store or Google Play, and functioning like a mobile wallet, value can be added with a credit or debit card. Residents will then scan the QR Code located on the laundry machine to start the cycle. Other features of the CleanPay Mobile App include the capability of checking account balance, viewing transaction history and purchasing additional laundry credit.
