Regional / Master Franchise

    Build the network, and earn from every partner in it.

    The Regional/Master franchise gives you one approved region, subject to the final agreement. You sell directly to corporate and bulk buyers, and you recruit, train and support the city, mobile and kiosk franchisees beneath you.

    UK-based NFC and QR digital identity brand. Figures shown are illustrative planning estimates, not guarantees.

    Plans and add-ons

    This format should not be judged on direct product sales alone. Its main economic value is the right to recruit and support sub-franchisees across a region. Each city, mobile or kiosk partner you bring in adds network sales and master income on top of your own corporate and bulk orders, at the lowest royalty rate of any format.

    The numbers

    At a lean launch, break-even on direct sales alone is about £11,624 a month, roughly 238 card-equivalent sales. Sub-franchise income sits on top of that. The figures in the switcher above are direct sales only.

    Operating profit is shown after royalty and the listed operating costs, and before tax, finance costs, depreciation and owner drawings. The conservative case is a positive launch case with phased staffing, not an absolute downside case. Actual results can be lower, including an operating loss.

    Cost in context

    What it really costs you, month by month

    Spread the one-time investment over three years and look at it the way you look at every other business cost. It comes to £2,778 a month. Over 12 months it is £8,333 a month.

    £93 a day

    That is the 36-month equivalent of the full investment, working capital and opening stock included.

    • Your investment, spread over 36 months£2,778 a month
    • Average plan, direct sales only£7,101 a month
    • Strong direct sales£12,301 a month
    • Average plan with four sub-franchisees£20,701 a month
    vs 1

    Against your overheads

    It is less than the £3,000 a month this plan allows for the regional office alone.

    vs 2

    Against three sales

    Three £49 sales leave you £117.60 after royalty. That is above the daily figure, before operating costs.

    vs 3

    Against the return

    With four sub-franchisees, the average plan's monthly profit is more than 7 times the 36-month figure.

    The investment is a one-time amount paid upfront. The monthly and daily figures are a value comparison only and are not an instalment offer. Profit figures are illustrative planning estimates before tax, finance costs, depreciation and owner drawings, and are not guaranteed.

    Timing

    What waiting could cost you

    The range below runs from the average plan to the strong-sales plan. It shows potential revenue forgone by not taking part. It is not an amount you are guaranteed to lose.

    A region is awarded once. Every city, kiosk and mobile partner signed inside it becomes part of someone else’s network instead of yours.

    Why Lets Connect

    Join hands with the world’s best AI powered business card

    Paper cards are being thrown away in every meeting room on earth. The switch to smart, AI-powered identity is happening once — and the people who own it in their city will own it for a decade. You are not buying stock. You are taking a position in a change that is already underway.

    A category, not a product

    Every professional you meet still hands out paper. You arrive with the replacement, already built, already branded, already trusted.

    AI does the selling for you

    Smart profiles, instant lead capture, review collection and CRM-style follow-up. One tap and the prospect has already seen what you sell.

    You are never alone in it

    We make the cards, ship them, run the platform and train you. Your only job is the part you are good at: talking to people in your area.

    In five years nobody will ask whether smart cards replaced paper. They will ask who got there first in your city.

    You recruit, train and support city, mobile and kiosk partners across your approved region and earn a master override on their network sales, in addition to your own direct sales. The planning examples use about £3,400 of net monthly master income per sub-franchisee. The final override rate is confirmed in the franchise agreement.
