Why ADIs are switching
Save an estimated £8,000+/year in franchise fees
RED franchise fees are estimated at £150-200/week. DrivePro costs from £16.66/month. That difference could mean £8,000-10,000 a year more in your pocket.
Build your own brand and reputation
With RED, pupils remember the brand - not you. Go independent and every recommendation builds YOUR business. Your name, your reviews, your reputation.
HMRC Making Tax Digital built in
RED provides no tax tools. DrivePro connects directly to HMRC and files your quarterly Making Tax Digital returns in minutes. All your finances in one place.
