WaffleTechnology® Cleaning Cards are one of the most effective ways to keep your card readers and bill acceptors clean, reliable, and operating at peak performance.
If your parking equipment processes hundreds or even thousands of transactions every day, dirt, dust, oils, and debris can quickly build up on internal sensors. Over time, that buildup can lead to misreads, transaction errors, unnecessary downtime, and expensive service calls. Fortunately, routine cleaning is quick and easy with WaffleTechnology Cleaning Cards.
Why Are WaffleTechnology Cleaning Cards Different?
Unlike traditional flat cleaning cards, WaffleTechnology cards feature patented raised ridges that gently scrub areas standard cleaning cards simply can't reach. These textured ridges clean deeper around sensors, rollers, and read heads, helping remove stubborn contaminants while protecting sensitive electronic components.
The result? Cleaner equipment, improved performance, and fewer interruptions for your customers.
Designed for the Equipment You Rely On
ParkingZone offers two specialized versions:
- Card & Chip Reader Cleaning Cards – Ideal for magnetic stripe, smart card, and chip readers commonly found in parking payment systems, kiosks, and access control equipment.
