All over the world, thousands of talented abacus teachers spend years building someone else's name — paying a small fortune in franchise fees, handing over a cut of every fee they collect, and running under a brand that is not theirs. ERPLI gives you the complete toolkit to run a professional, independent academy entirely under your own name — in any city, in any country.
The traditional abacus franchise model was built for a different era. To use their name and curriculum, you pay a large upfront fee. Then, every single month, you hand over 15–20% of the fees you collect from your own students.
You are also locked into a territory. You cannot open a second center without paying again. You must buy their printed books at a steep markup. And after all of that — the brand your students know belongs to them, not to you.
If you leave, you leave with nothing. No brand. No student data. No goodwill — because it was never yours to begin with.
You do all the hard work, fill all the seats, and then every month they take their cut — forever.
We give you every tool a big franchise network has — but with your logo on everything, your name on the books, your domain on the website, and your brand in the parent's mind.
Custom LMS? You got it. Custom website on your own .in or .com domain? You got it. Printed books with your academy name on the cover, Google Business Profile, WhatsApp enquiry flows, Facebook ads guidance, and teacher training? You got it.
Keep 100% of every rupee your students pay. Build a brand that is yours — one your city will remember by your name.
₹0 royalties. ₹0 franchise fee. 100% your brand, your revenue, your legacy.
A side-by-side look at the old franchise model versus running your own independent academy with ERPLI.
| What You're Looking At | Old Franchise Model | ERPLI Independent |
|---|---|---|
| Upfront Joining Fee | ₹2L – ₹10L+ | ₹0 |
| Monthly Royalty on Fees | 15% – 20% forever | ₹0 |
| Student Workbooks | Mandatory purchase at their price | Printed at wholesale with your logo |
| Territory | Restricted — pay again to expand | Unlimited centers, one plan |
| The Brand Parents Know | Their name, not yours | Your name, in your city |
| Student Data | Belongs to the franchisor | 100% yours, always |
| If You Walk Away | Leave with nothing | Your brand follows you |
The complete independent academy toolkit — built specifically for independent abacus teachers.
Your own student portal — your logo, your colors, your domain. Students log in and see only your brand. ERPLI is invisible.
A professional, lead-generating website on your own .in or .com domain. Free hosting, free SSL. Parents in your city find you, not a national franchise.
Level 0 to 9 abacus workbooks printed with your academy's logo on the cover — at wholesale prices, shipped directly to your center. Shipping availability varies by country, so ask us about yours.
We set up your GMB so when a parent in your area searches "abacus classes near me," your academy is what comes up — not a national chain.
Parents rarely fill in forms — they message. We set up your entire lead-to-trial flow on WhatsApp so no enquiry ever slips through.
Onboarding, curriculum support, and marketing training in English. Whether you're in Bengaluru or Bhopal, you will never be left figuring it out alone.
Great abacus teachers exist in every country. The franchise model never served them equally — it was built for big cities, not for the equally skilled teacher in a smaller town who was never given the right tools. That is changing.
You don't need a national franchise's name to be the most trusted abacus teacher in your locality. Parents trust the teacher they meet, not the logo on the book.
ERPLI's platform is in English — the one common layer across Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, West Bengal, Karnataka, Kerala, and every other state. No language barriers for you or your students.
Independent abacus academies with professional digital tools are still rare. The teachers who build their own brand today will be the names parents know for the next decade.
Clear all your doubts before taking the leap to independence.
No. You keep 100% of the tuition and exam fees you collect from your students. ERPLI is a software and support provider — not a franchisor. We charge a flat platform fee, never a percentage of your revenue.
Yes, and many teachers do exactly this. Please review any agreement you signed with your current franchise before making the move — we advise checking your exit terms carefully. Once you are ready, we help you migrate your operations, build your own brand identity from scratch, and set up everything under your new independent academy name.
No. ERPLI runs completely in the background. Students log into a portal with your logo, your colors, and your domain name. Parents see only your brand — never ours.
We provide the standardized Level 0–9 abacus curriculum content. You provide your logo and academy name, and our printing partners produce the physical workbooks with your branding and ship them directly to your center at wholesale pricing. Shipping availability varies by country — ask us about yours, or run the curriculum fully digitally instead.
ERPLI is a cloud platform — it works anywhere in the world with an internet connection, and there is no country restriction on signing up. Whether you teach in a capital city or a small town, the software behaves exactly the same and your students access it online. Printed workbooks are a separate add-on and shipping availability depends on your country, so ask us when you book your call.
Yes. We provide onboarding for the software, marketing guidance, and curriculum training support — especially if you are hiring junior teachers and scaling to multiple centers. Training is conducted in English and works for teachers in any country.
The world needs more independent abacus academies. Not more franchise branches. If you are ready to build something that is yours — your name, your city, your students, your income — let's talk.
