Travel Agency Franchise System
Unified franchise and tour package management SaaS for travel agencies operating at scale
Overview
A SaaS system for travel agencies that manage franchises, leads, bookings, commissions, and package operations. It gives owners and branch teams one place to run the business instead of using disconnected tools.
Challenge
Running a travel agency franchise network without centralized software means the franchisor has no real visibility into what each branch is doing — how many leads they are handling, how much revenue they are generating, how agents are performing, whether commissions are being calculated correctly, and how package inventory is being consumed across departures. Franchise owners deal with this through WhatsApp groups, Excel files, and manual reconciliation. The challenge was designing a system that works naturally for both the franchisor at the top and the branch agents on the ground.
Approach
I designed a three-tier role architecture — Super Admin (franchisor), Branch Manager (franchise owner), and Agent (travel consultant) — each with their own dashboard and workflow. The Super Admin has complete network visibility: every branch, every agent, every lead, every booking, every commission, and package capacity utilization across the entire franchise. Branch Managers see their own branch performance and manage their team. Agents handle their own customer leads, package bookings, and traveler communication.
