Features

How Aminiti helps

Flexible Pay-per-use

Collect fees per session or by duration with Apple Pay, Google Pay, or most credit cards. Enable free access for staff or registered users.

Scheduled Operation

Make equipment available during approved hours only. Reduce noise complaints, misuse, and liability.

Time Limits

Cap session duration so equipment doesn't get left on, reducing waste and unauthorized use.

Authorized Use Only

Restrict access to approved users, staff, and community members. Aminiti devices hide away, with no outside keypads or controls to wear out or be vandalized.

Forms & Waivers

Require users to provide a signed acknowledgement, safety waiver, or custom form before a session can start. Protects you legally and communicates expectations to every user.

Passcode Access

For streamlined access, issue passcodes that provide instant, secured access for casual users without requiring account creation, and no app download (iOS only).

Hardware

Installation options

Aminiti is flexible — here are just a few ways to integrate our hardware

Q16PLUG-INEffort: EASY

For 120V plug-in vacuums, simply plug-in an Aminiti Q16 relay in-line with the vacuum. Secure the outlet with an in-use outdoor cover or other enclosure.

Q16PLUG-INEffort: EASY

For wash station control, use an Aminiti Q16 plugged into an existing GFCI outlet. Install with a plug-in solenoid valve to control water flow to the station.

S16WIRE-INEffort: PRO

For wired-in vacuum installations, use an Aminiti S16 wire-in module. Add a junction box near the vacuum to house the relay.

Get started

Implementation

1
Install an Aminiti device to control power to your vacuum or wash station. Use a solenoid valve to simultaneously control access to wash nozzles.
2
Use the Aminiti web app to create QR signage to enable users to activate the amenity. (Your users can still use the Aminiti app to activate without a QR code.)
3
Configure your station using the Aminiti app on the web or on your mobile device.

Flexible Pay-per-use

Charge per session for non-residents or per-minute for vacuums. Residents you've added by email get Free Access while public visitors tap to pay with Apple Pay, Google Pay, or credit card.

Scheduled Operation

Restrict the bay to daytime hours so washing doesn't happen after lights-out. Outside the window the vacuum and water valve simply won't energize.

Time Limits

Cap each session so a single car doesn't hog the bay. The vacuum or wash cycle ends automatically when the timer runs out; users re-tap to start a new cycle.
