Claims

Damage and lost-item cases, Not a ticket channel

Claims are car-wash cases such as vehicle damage or a lost item. They have their own inbox, tickets, invoices, and workflow — separate from unified tickets.

Overview

A claims desk for the tunnel

HelloWash Claims tracks first contact, photos, invoices, and store-level workflow. Claim-category calls land in the claim inbox. Staff can also add a webform, email, website chat, or SMS conversation to that inbox. Marking a row done removes it from the queue without creating a ticket.

Key Features

What Makes It Powerful

Claim inbox

Calls tagged as claims, damage, refunds, billing disputes, complaints, safety, or lost property.

Claim tickets

Require form answers and a physical location. Workflow status is separate from open versus resolved.

Physical location

Cases attach to the actual store, not only the parent communications location.

Photos and invoices

Guest and agent uploads stay on the case. A claim can hold several invoices.

Causes and custom fields

Per-corporate cause lists, tags, and custom fields scoped to claims.

Claims analytics

Inbox, tickets, invoices, and credit or repair charts for the selected range.

How It Works

Simple to Get Started

1

Capture the case

A claim-category call, form, or add-to-inbox action starts the work.

2

Work the store case

Assign, collect photos, set workflow status, and attach invoices.

3

Close with a record

Open and resolved stay separate from operational statuses like invoicing or waiting on repair.

Use Cases

Built for Real Car Wash Scenarios

Vehicle damage

Scratch, scrape, and equipment-contact cases with film and invoices.

Lost property

Items left at the vacuum or lobby, tracked to a physical location.

Billing disputes on a claim call

Those calls still appear in the claim inbox even when they started as a phone conversation.

Not unified ticketing

Do not treat a claim as just another ticket channel. The workflow and invoices are purpose-built.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a claim a unified ticket?
No. Claims are a separate product with inbox, tickets, invoices, and analytics. Unified tickets do not include a claim channel.
Can I add a text thread to a claim?
Yes. Staff can add a webform, email, website chat, or SMS conversation to the claim inbox.
