Optical Shop Software for Multiple Branches and Optical Chains
If you run more than one optical shop, you need one software that shows combined sales across every branch, keeps stock for each shop, gives every salesman their own login, and ranks staff branch by branch. We recommend **Opticdigit**, which scales from one counter to enterprise optical chains: **Premium, Premium Pro and Pro Ultra** cover 2, 4 and 6 shops, and **Opticdigit Enterprise** covers chains with 7 or more branches. We make Opticdigit, so judge us against the checklist below.
A second shop changes the job. You cannot stand at both counters, so you need to see from your phone, laptop or head-office computer what each shop sold, what stock is running low, and who is selling. This guide explains what to look for and how to set it up.
Quick answer
| Shops | Opticdigit plan | Price | Staff |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | Premium | ₹7,000 a year | Up to 5 logins |
| Up to 4 | Premium Pro | ₹14,999 first year (printer included), then ₹9,999 a year | Unlimited |
| Up to 6 | Pro Ultra | ₹34,999 a year | Unlimited |
| 7 or more | Enterprise | Custom pricing | Unlimited, with roles per branch |
All of these include combined and advanced reports. Compare every feature on the plans page.
What changes when you open a second shop
- You lose sight of the counter. You need reports you trust from wherever you are.
- Stock gets split. A frame selling fast in one shop may sit unsold in the other.
- Staff multiply. Each salesman needs a login so you know who billed what, and who can see what.
- Customers move between shops. A customer tested at one branch may collect at the other, so prescriptions need to be in the cloud, not on one computer.
- Incentives get harder. Paying commission by hand across two shops leads to disputes.
What to look for in multi-branch optical software
Combined reports
You should see total sales, stock and GST across all shops in one view, and also each shop on its own. Opticdigit Premium and above include combined and advanced reports: best sellers, repeat customers and profit, as well as the sales, stock and GST reports every plan has.
Ask yourself these questions each week, and check the software answers them in a minute:
- Which shop sold more this week, and by how much?
- Which frames and lenses are best sellers at each shop?
- How many customers came back, and from which shop?
- What was the profit, not just the sales?
Stock per branch
Each shop should have its own stock with barcode labels and low-stock alerts, so you know which shop needs a reorder. Opticdigit includes barcode labels, scan to bill and low-stock alerts on every plan. If you move frames between branches often, Opticdigit Enterprise adds stock transfer between branches and a central warehouse. On Premium Pro and Pro Ultra, our team does the full stock import and labelling for you, which saves days when you are setting up several shops at once. Read more about optical shop inventory management and barcode stock management.
Staff logins with roles
Every salesman should bill under their own login. Role-based access means a salesman can bill but cannot see profit reports or change prices, while a manager can. Premium includes up to 5 staff logins with role-based access. Premium Pro and Pro Ultra include unlimited staff, which you will need at 3 or 4 shops.
Branch-wise salesman ranking
With several shops, the question is not just who your best salesman is, but who is best in each branch. Opticdigit Premium includes a salesman performance dashboard, monthly targets and a leaderboard. Premium Pro and Pro Ultra add branch-wise salesman ranking and incentive payout statements, so each salesman sees exactly what they earned. Our salesman incentive guide explains how to set commission per frame, lens or brand.
Customers and prescriptions shared across shops
Because Opticdigit is cloud software, a customer's eye power history (SPH, CYL, AXIS, ADD and PD) is saved with their record, not on one computer. See prescription management.
Reminders and offers from every shop
Premium and above send eye check-up and contact lens reminders and run offer and cashback campaigns automatically. Message allowances grow with the plan: 4,000 SMS or WhatsApp messages a year on Premium, 8,000 on Premium Pro and 15,000 on Pro Ultra, with extra packs available. Bills go out on WhatsApp from your shop's own number, and Enterprise adds the official WhatsApp Business API (Meta) for high-volume automated messages across branches.

GST, e-invoices and e-way bills
More shops usually means more B2B sales and more stock on the road. On Premium and above, Opticdigit makes e-invoices and e-way bills, files GST returns from the software and does bank reconciliation, so month-end does not grow with every branch. On Enterprise, multi-GSTIN gives each branch or state its own GST number.
Which plan for how many branches
Premium: 2 shops
₹7,000 a year. Good for an owner with a main shop and one branch. Includes 2 shops (1+1), up to 5 staff logins, combined and advanced reports, salesman incentives, performance dashboard, targets and leaderboard, automatic WhatsApp bills, reminders, campaigns, e-invoicing and e-way bills, professional setup and staff training.
Premium Pro: up to 4 shops
₹14,999 for the first year, then ₹9,999 a year. The first year includes a 2-in-1 bill and barcode printer that is yours to keep, plus a starter pack of barcode rolls and stickers. Adds up to 4 shops, unlimited staff, branch-wise salesman ranking, incentive payout statements, 8,000 messages a year, full stock import and labelling by our team, and 24/7 support. Offline billing works on every plan, so a branch with poor internet keeps billing; read offline billing for optical shops.
Pro Ultra: up to 6 shops
₹34,999 a year. For owners who also want to grow online. Adds up to 6 shops, custom incentive schemes, 15,000 messages a year, a shop website with frame catalogue, Google Search and Maps listing, online eye-test booking, Google review requests, monthly social posts and offer creatives, and a dedicated account manager. See our guide to Google Business Profile for optical shops.
Enterprise: 7 or more branches
Custom pricing. For optical chains and franchise networks with 7 or more branches, across one city or several states. Covers any number of branches. See the Enterprise section below.
You can upgrade at any time and the unused part of your plan is credited, so you can start on Premium with two shops and move up when you open the third, or the seventh.
Opticdigit Enterprise: for optical chains and franchise networks with 7 or more branches
At 7 or more branches, the job changes again. Head office needs to receive stock in one place, move it to where it sells, control who can do what at each branch, and file GST for more than one registration. Opticdigit Enterprise is built for this, with custom pricing and any number of branches. It includes:
- Stock transfer between branches. Move frames, lenses and accessories from one branch to another and keep every branch's stock correct.
- A central warehouse. Receive stock in one place and send it out to branches.
- A head-office view of every branch. Sales, stock and staff across all branches from one screen.
- Official WhatsApp Business API (Meta). High-volume automated messages across all branches, in addition to one-tap sharing from the shop's own number that every plan has.
- Roles and permissions per branch. Admin, manager and cashier style access, set branch by branch.
- Multi-GSTIN. A different GST number for each branch or state.
- Tally export, purchase and supplier ledgers. Keep your accounts team and your suppliers in sync.
- Everything in Pro Ultra, including a dedicated account manager, OpticSathi AI Pro, setup, stock import and staff training.
