Who this template is for

Franchise Application is built for programmes, clubs, landlords and admissions teams who need to screen applications against the same criteria every time.

  • Programmes, clubs, landlords and admissions teams working in applications & memberships.
  • Teams who need to screen applications against the same criteria every time without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing inconsistent applications that can't be compared fairly with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are applicants and prospective members — the form asks them 15 questions across 3 screens.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of inconsistent applications that can't be compared fairly and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 11 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
  • It captures a full postal address.
  • Conditional logic hides 3 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 3 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.
  • Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.

Logic and conditions blueprint

Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 3 conditional rules ship with it.

  • Features advanced show logic: if “Ownership Scope” is Multiple units, the form dynamically exposes “Multi-Unit Plan”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Proposed Site Status” is I have a specific site in mind, the form dynamically exposes “Proposed Site Address”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Day-to-Day Operating Role” is I plan to hire an operator, the form dynamically exposes “Operator Plan”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • All 3 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form

Should applicants upload proof of funds?

Not during this initial intake. Use the capital range to guide the first conversation, then handle any later verification through a separate, appropriately controlled process.

Can someone apply without a location selected?

Yes. The site-status question lets applicants say they are searching or have not started. Only applicants with a specific site see the optional address field.

Does this form replace a financing application?

No. It qualifies interest in franchise ownership rather than requests for credit. If you run a separate financing intake, the Loan Application Form is the more relevant starting point.

Should a low capital estimate automatically reject an applicant?

Use it as a review signal, not an automatic decision in this template. Clarify what the applicant included, then assess the application against your team's documented screening criteria.

Is the Franchise Application template free to use?

Yes. You can preview and test Franchise Application on this page without an account, and take a copy into your own HelloForms workspace on the free plan. There is nothing to install and no card required to publish it.

What does the Franchise Application template ask for?

It asks 15 questions across 3 pages, 11 of which are required. Every question is listed in full further down this page, and each one can be renamed, reordered, made optional or deleted after you copy the template.

Can I edit the Franchise Application form after copying it?

Yes — the copy is entirely yours. Change wording, add or remove questions, switch between the classic and card layouts, restyle it to match your brand, and set who gets notified on each submission.

Otherwise that question never appears. All rules are editable in the Logic tab.

Submissions land in your workspace under Submissions, where you can search, filter, label and export them to CSV or PDF. You can also email a notification to your team on every submission and send the respondent an auto-reply.

Can I embed the Franchise Application form on my own website?

Yes. Publish the form and paste the embed snippet into any page or share the direct link. The embedded form resizes to fit its container and loads no advertising or marketing trackers inside the iframe.
