The
Eugene Water & Electric Board (EWEB)
provides bulk water to contractors, street sweepers,
and the general public through a roadside water
dispensing station. In order to meet the unique needs
of this location, they needed a solution that would
allow haulers to be able to create accounts and pay
for the water on the spot, as well as protect the
equipment from unauthorized users.
EWEB chose a Portalogic FS-20 Bulk Water Station and
paired it with
Portapay, a mobile
payment platform for haulers (also by
EleMech). The lockable station coupled with Portapay
ensures only authorized users can use the station.
Haulers can use Portapay to create and manage
accounts, and pay for water, all from a mobile device.
Portapay seemlessly communicates with Portalogic
Management Software, so any accounts created at the
station or afterhours automatically sync with
Portalogic. Portalogic also allows EWEB to track
hauler activity and monitor the station remotely,
making the Portapay/Portalogic pairing a truly
hands-off management experience.
