From One Console
Managing a franchise-based logistics or courier network usually means juggling separate operational relationships with every franchisee, with no consolidated visibility into performance, volume, or compliance. Shiplystic's Franchise Module gives franchisors a single console to onboard, manage, and monitor franchise locations, while giving each franchisee their own operational workspace.

Franchisee Onboarding Workflow
Bring new franchise locations onto the platform with a standardized setup wizard. Configure sub-profiles, local print hubs, operational guidelines, and shipping limits instantly so every location starts on the same footing.
Standardized Location SetupHierarchical Account Structure
Master franchisor accounts maintain total oversight of shipment statistics, volume trends, and compliance. Franchisees operate entirely within their own private, secure, scoped operational workspaces.
Master & Sub-Account ControlShared Courier Network Access
Franchise locations draw from the same master negotiated courier rates and courier accounts configured at the corporate level, rather than each regional franchise sourcing rates independently.
Unified Volume RatesPerformance Monitoring by Location
Monitor shipment counts, NDR resolutions, RTO return rates, and courier dispatch delays per location. Compare regional efficiencies using consolidated master reports.
Multi-Unit AnalyticsCentralized Billing & Revenue Tracking
Oversee shipping expenses, monthly franchise service fees, shipment markups, and billing histories per location from a centralized accounting dashboard.
Centralized AccountingWhy It Matters
Franchise-based logistics models succeed or fail on operational consistency — a customer's experience shouldn't vary depending on which location handled their shipment.
Without shared infrastructure, every franchisee ends up building operational discipline independently, making quality control and reporting impossible. The Franchise Module puts every location on the same platform, rate structure, and reporting standard by default.
Franchise Network Value Metrics
Scale regional locations with centralized control and unified service standards:
- 100% Data Isolation — Franchisees operate in secure, private workspaces while master accounts retain total oversight.
- Unified Rate Structures — Share corporate volume discounts while allowing location-based surcharges and markups.
- Centralized Accounting — Automate monthly franchise fees, shipment revenue shares, and billing reconciliations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about multi-location franchise operations, rate sheet overrides, revenue tracking, and network connectivity.
Can each franchisee see other franchisees' data, or only their own?
Franchisee workspaces are completely scoped to their own operations, ensuring strict data privacy and isolation. Franchise locations cannot see shipment metrics, customer lists, or financial data from other branches. Only the master franchisor account maintains complete visibility across all locations.
Do all franchise locations use the same courier rates, or can they vary by location?
By default, all locations draw from the uniform master courier rate sheet configured by the franchisor at the corporate level. However, the Franchise Module provides the flexibility to override rate configurations, allowing you to define customized markup layers or regional shipping surcharges per location to account for local operational overhead.
How is franchise fee or revenue tracking handled on the platform?
The platform includes a built-in Billing Layer where master franchisors can configure specific fee collections. You can establish percentage-based revenue sharing, configure flat processing fee charges per shipment, or collect monthly software subscription fees automatically billed to each local account.
Can I connect existing corporate courier accounts across all franchise hubs?
Yes! Master franchisors have complete flexibility. You can either link your corporate aggregate courier accounts so all franchise outlets ship under your master volume discounts, or allow individual franchise locations to plug in their local carrier credentials for specific regional fulfillment needs.
How are NDR (Non-Delivery Reports) and RTO handled across franchise outlets?
The platform's unified NDR workflow engine allows corporate teams to establish automated buyer re-attempt rules while enabling local franchise teams to directly contact buyers, upload delivery proofs, or re-route shipments in real time from their local dashboard.
Is white-label custom domain branding supported for franchise portals?
Absolutely. Shiplystic supports custom domain mapping, branded tracking pages, customized email/SMS notification handles, and logo customization so your franchisee network operates under your company's distinct brand identity.
