Protect Unlimited Plan Revenue

Your Unlimited Plan Has a Leak. Every Shared Membership Is $30 You're Not Collecting.

GateIQ reads plates at your entry lane and opens the gate for paying members only — no RFID, no app, no staff required. Works with your existing POS.

Three Reasons RFID and Apps Are Failing You

RFID Fails on Post-2020 Vehicles

Heated windshields — standard on nearly every vehicle built after 2020 — use a metallic coating that blocks RFID signals. Your member pulls up, waves their sticker at the reader, and nothing happens. They call the attendant. Or they tailgate someone else.

License plates are always on the exterior. They don't care about windshield technology. Plates always work.

Buddy-Passing Costs You 3–7% of Membership Revenue

With RFID stickers, members hand them to friends. With app-based systems, members share their phone or screenshot the QR code. Every unauthorized wash is a full membership price you didn't collect.

License plates are tied to a specific vehicle — they can't be forwarded, photographed, or transferred. If the plate isn't in your whitelist, the gate doesn't open.

Full POS Replacement Costs $20,000+

Many LPR solutions require you to rip out your existing point-of-sale and replace the entire entry system. The hardware cost is just the beginning — you're also retraining staff and migrating membership data.

GateIQ adds plate recognition to whatever you already have. Your POS stays. Your membership database stays. GateIQ just adds the plate-to-gate enforcement layer.

How GateIQ Integrates With Your Operation

No rip-and-replace. GateIQ sits alongside your existing system.

1 Your POS sells the membership

Nothing changes. Customer pays. Your POS records the sale as it always has.

2 Add the plate to GateIQ whitelist

Staff adds the vehicle's plate via the web dashboard — or use the API to automate this from your POS when a membership is purchased.

3 Member drives up

Camera reads the plate. GateIQ checks the whitelist. Gate opens. Under one second. No app. No sticker. No staff interaction.

4 Non-member drives up

Plate not in whitelist — gate stays closed. The event is logged. They use the pay station as normal. Zero leakage to the membership lane.

Note on membership expiration: When a membership lapses, remove the plate from the whitelist. Or keep a note on their membership in your POS and remove it at renewal time. GateIQ provides an audit log of every entry so you can reconcile washes against active memberships at any time.

The ROI Math
