NOW you can use your cashcard to pay for more than just parking fees. This carwash facility within the Caltex petrol station along Lorong Chuan has come up with a novel way to streamline its cash management system.

Motorists pay for their car wash at a POS (point of sale) terminal with their cashcards. The result - no cash or change required. An employee there said the cashless arrangement started about a month ago. Daily takings at the carwash are said to average $600. The amount is higher on weekends or whenever the weather is fine. The carwash is open every day from 9am to 9pm and a 'snow wash' costs $6 for a sedan and $7 for an MPV.
