What is a franchise in a sales bot?

Franchise system in Telegram bots - reselling a product from someone else's (franchise) bot with a markup is the main difference between a franchise system and product import.

For example: You have developed a bot with a unique digital product. You offer a franchise to other shop owners (or give permission to resell your product), and the owner of another bot creates a product in their catalog, whose content is taken from your inventory and sold in the franchise store.

Main advantages of the franchise system:
- For the franchise owner, the need to increase sales conversion is reduced; the product is resold in another store at full price, debiting money from the balance of the user who is reselling the product
- The owner of the other bot does not need to search for digital product suppliers or purchase it for later resale

The balance is debited from the franchisor bot!

Creating a franchise product with API type

You need to create a product with the API type and select the operating mode - Resale from another bot (Franchise)

Then enter the following data in the specified fields:

- bot_user_id - Your profile ID in the franchise bot
- secret_cey - the secret key of your profile in the franchise bot; you need to find it from the bot owner or in the profile, provided that the required constant is displayed.

After you enter the data and click the "save" button, if the settings are correct, information about your balance in the franchise bot will be displayed (the balance needs to be replenished periodically, purchases of goods will be made from it) and information about the catalog with goods for resale

How can I find out the profile secret key and profile ID in the bot?

To find out the user's secret key and ID in the BOT-T system, go to the "Users" tab and click the "View profile" button in the information field for the required account.
