For master franchisees and area developers

Royalty that clears in both directions

A master franchise signs franchisees, collects their royalty, and remits the brand’s share. That is two ledgers moving in opposite directions every month, and most software models only one of them.

The day this replaces

You are a franchisor to your franchisees and a franchisee to the brand, on the same day, with the same outlets. Every month you reconcile what you collected against what you owe, by hand.

  • Collections from your franchisees and remittance to the brand are tracked in separate places and reconciled manually.
  • The brand wants unit-level visibility that your agreement does not actually grant them.
  • Territory development targets are tracked in a plan nobody updates.
  • Adding a franchisee means re-keying everything the brand already holds.
  • Nobody can say, mid-month, what the net position with the brand is.

The chain, your way through it

How the work runs

Hold the rights

A master franchise holds sub-franchising rights in a region; an area developer holds a development quota and does not sub-franchise. FranOpero models that difference as a rule, not a label — including what each side is allowed to see.

Sign franchisees

Your own pipeline, your own agreements, your own onboarding — inside your workspace, with the brand seeing what the agreement says it sees and no more.

Collect and clear

Royalty is computed from your franchisees’ sales, then the brand’s share clears up a level. Both directions carry their own statements, GST treatment and adjustments, so the net position is a number you can read rather than assemble.

Develop the territory

Territory assignments and development targets tracked against actual openings, so a quota is something you can see slipping while there is still time.

What you get

Two-tier royalty

Collection from your units and remittance to the brand, each with its own statement and tax treatment.

Privacy that matches the agreement

Area developer unit financials stay private even when a consultancy acts for the brand.

Your own network view

Outlets, opening journeys, visits and requests for the units you signed.

One workspace, both roles

Franchisor upward and franchisee downward, without two systems and a reconciliation.

How it is priced

The royalty distribution layer is an add-on per outlet on top of the outlet plan — it is what turns collection into clearing.

Prices are quoted to the shape of your network rather than published, and exclude GST. Ask for pricing and we will send the numbers.
