Xplor Mariana Tek Launches New Franchise Management Tools to Help Corporate and Multi-Site Fitness Studios Scale Their Business

New software solution empowers boutique fitness franchises by simplifying royalty fee collection and disbursement

ATLANTA, GA – January 9, 2025 – Xplor Mariana Tek, a powerful, consumer-focused, and easy-to-use boutique fitness software platform from Xplor Technologies, today announced a new suite of franchise management software tools for corporate and multi-site fitness and wellness studios. The new software is designed to simplify royalty fee collection and disbursement for franchised studios and to provide accurate, real-time, multi-site data for seamless operations across locations.

Franchising is a popular business model in the boutique fitness world – over 25 percent of studios using Xplor Mariana Tek operate using a franchise model. With more and more studio brands opening new locations, studio owners are facing increasing complexity in managing their growing business. They need to be able to create and adjust royalty agreements, automate fee collection and disbursement – and provide transparency for their franchisees.   

“Every corporate and multi-site fitness business seeks to deliver a consistently standout experience across every location and run their network more efficiently. Xplor Mariana Tek’s franchise management tools offer greater transparency for franchisors and franchisees. We’ve made it easier to manage royalties, fees, and all the complexities of a fast-growing fitness business so they can focus on what they do best – offering memorable fitness experiences,” said Shannon Tracey, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Xplor Mariana Tek.

Built in collaboration with its leading franchise partners, Xplor Mariana Tek’s new franchise management tools enhance operations by effortlessly handling studio royalties, software, and marketing fees. With accurate tracking, flexible scheduling, and automatic collection and disbursement, franchisors can avoid manual calculations and remove time-consuming invoicing processes. The new tools include a dashboard that delivers reporting at a glance, enabling quick assessments and helping to optimize revenue management across an entire franchise network.

Sweat440, a multi-location boutique fitness brand with 20+ locations across the U.S., are using Xplor Mariana Tek’s new franchise management tools to streamline their operations. Cody Patrick, Co-founder and owner of Sweat440 said, “Managing the royalties and fees for all our locations used to be a manual, labor-intensive process. But with Xplor Mariana Tek’s franchise fee tools, things have now changed for the better. Now all the data I need is at my fingertips, with automatic calculation and distribution of royalties and fees – and quick and easy access to detailed reports that used to take more effort to compile.”   

Corporate and franchised fitness studios are offered more control and consistency over their brands with Xplor Mariana Tek. The platform provides robust permission capabilities, allowing franchisors to decide which settings they would like to standardize and which elements to give their franchisees flexibility with. With set controls for classes, memberships, client account balances, discounts, and gift cards, specific to each location or staff role – franchisees will receive appropriate compensation. Franchisors can also establish centralized marketing campaigns to maintain a consistent brand voice and boost sales across all their studio locations.

Additional master franchise features for accurate, tiered revenue collection across territories, and immediate royalty calculations for real-time financial tracking, will be launched in 2025.

Renowned for delivering the best consumer experience in boutique fitness, Xplor Mariana Tek powers thousands of fitness and wellness studios of all sizes across the UK, U.S., and Canada.
