Run the region.
We run the software.
A Fotiqo franchise gets you a proven resort-photography operation — kiosks, cameras, academy, and a six-month pipeline of guest sales — with none of the platform engineering. You focus on venues and people.
Photography revenue, without the photography business.
Sleeping-money revenue share
Automated post-trip sales keep paying after each guest leaves — recovered revenue you share with HQ at the rate in your franchise agreement (the same rate as any other sale, not a separate split).
Full platform, zero build
Kiosk software, gallery system, Stripe Connect, payroll, commissions — all turnkey. You never touch infrastructure.
Academy training included
We train your first cohort of photographers and supervisors end-to-end. Repeatable onboarding for every new hire.
Shared growth playbook
Proven pricing, staffing, and sales scripts for hotels, parks, cruises, and attractions — updated continuously by HQ.
From application to first guest in ~6 weeks.
Apply
Tell us your region, your target venue type, and your capital. We respond within one business week.
Territory + terms
We agree on your territory, launch budget, and revenue share — a subscription + commission hybrid, set per franchise agreement.
Setup sprint
4 weeks: hardware ships, academy onboards your team, HQ supervisor flies out to kick off your first contract.
Launch
First hotel or park goes live. Dashboards, payroll, and automated marketing are already running on day one.
What the numbers look like.
Revenue for a franchise running 2–4 hotel contracts or one mid-sized attraction.
A subscription + commission revenue share, set per franchise agreement (sales commission in the 5–12% range; automated “sleeping-money” sales pay the same rate, not a separate split). You keep the rest.
Most franchises clear setup costs inside two quarters. HQ covers your first academy cohort.
Frequently asked
What capital is required?
Budget for hardware (cameras + kiosk + tablets), first-cohort salaries, and 2–3 months of housing for staff. We share a detailed starter sheet during the territory call.
What regions are open?
We review franchise interest region by region. Tell us where you are and the venues you’re eyeing, and we’ll let you know whether it’s a fit.
Do I need photography experience?
No. Many of our best franchisees come from hospitality, food-service, or retail ops. We run the photography academy; you run the business.
How do payouts work?
Every sale writes a commission entry to a running ledger — by photographer, venue, and the share owed to HQ. The dashboard shows each month’s commission owed; you review it and mark payouts as paid once settled.
Can I white-label?
Yes. Franchises run on a subdomain and custom brand inside the platform. Your venues see your logo; HQ-level dashboards still roll up to us for support.

Run a franchise on autopilot
Multi-location reporting, payroll, marketing, and growth — the Fotiqo AI core handles franchise operations across every property in your network so a single CEO can scale from 1 to 50 venues.
Operate your business in plain English. Pull reports, send follow-ups, brief photographers, change pricing — by typing one sentence.
AI culls the misfires, auto-enhances the keepers, and applies your portfolio's color signature so every photographer's gallery looks like YOU.
Burst photos become 3-second reels. Top weddings become SEO blog posts. AI writes the captions, picks the music, schedules the post.
Self-learning pricing, abandoned-cart sweeps, partner-discovery scans, and staff-promotion suggestions — the AI runs the back-of-house while you shoot.
