Payment Systems for Laundry-Help! :)

[Seth Kingston]

We are updating the laundry room in our 60 unit complex and plan to buy new commercial washers and dryers. The laundry room is a separate, key card access-secure building at the center of 6 garden-style apartment buildings.  Is a card system worth the money? (We were quoted $20,000 for setup.)  Is there a reliable phone app for our tenants that anyone has experience with?  We would like to move away from coins to minimize risk for our property managers.  Thanks in advance for your knowledge and expertise.
