Laundroworks, Cents Enter into Partnership
NEW YORK — Cents, a business management and in-store operations platform that enables laundromat owners to start, manage and grow their business, and Laundroworks, a loyalty card payment systems for laundromats and multi-family shared laundry rooms, have joined forces, the two announced.
Together, the two companies will endeavor to create a true all-in-one solution by pairing Laundroworks’ affordable and reliable on-machine payment systems with Cents’ full-service laundry point-of-sale and business management system.
Cents and Laundroworks say they will offer “industry-leading products, with powerful integrations,” while dedicating significant resources to Laundroworks product development and support infrastructure.
“Since the day Cents started, our mission has been simple and consistent: support independent laundry business owners,” says Alexander Jekowsky, CEO of Cents. “We exist to provide our operators with a unified hardware and software platform to power every facet of their business. Oleg (Stepanov) and the Laundroworks team share the same vision and passion for our industry, and I could not be more excited for what this partnership will unlock for our customers.”
Stepanov, CEO of Laundroworks, says his business understands its responsibility to its customers and is committed to realizing its mission.
“Our team wanted to build more products, deliver even better support, and have the ability to build on the business my family started over 10 years ago,” he says. “Joining forces with Cents only strengthens that commitment and will expand our ability to create amazing products for local laundries, multi-family buildings, and their customers. We will have more resources to double-down on the core Laundroworks technology.”
With the partnership, there will be no product interruptions or impact on existing support, the partners say, and Cents adds that it is excited to welcome the entire Laundroworks team to continue building upon its powerful product line.
Customers of both—like Brian Riseland, the owner of Laundry Genius in Seattle—are already expressing their excitement for the partnership.
“This is a perfect match; I can’t think of a more impactful partnership for my business,” says Riseland.
