MLM software for Toys Industry

Toys are bought by parents on the recommendation of other parents, which is why toy companies have sold through home parties, school fairs and parent groups for decades, and why a toy network, in which the parent who recommends is paid on the sale and on the sales of the parents they bring in, is a natural fit. MLM software for the toys industry is Daani's MLM software configured for it: a catalogue by age group, stock that peaks before the holidays, parties and fairs as sales events, subscription boxes that make the income recurring and a compensation plan the software calculates every period. It is one of the configurations run by more than 100 network marketing companies in the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia and other countries. This page covers what a toy network needs from the software, the plans these companies run, the path from a party to the payout and the cost.

What a toy network needs from the software

• Catalogue by age group and type. Toys are filed by age range, type (educational, outdoor, plush, games, craft), brand and gift set; a member's page filters by the child's age, and bundles for birthdays and holidays are products of their own.
• Safety and age labelling. The age warning, the material notes and the safety mark each market requires are fields on the product and print on the page and the invoice; which texts are required in which country is for your compliance adviser, and the software shows what you set.
• Seasonal stock. Toy sales peak in the last quarter; stock is held per warehouse with pre-orders and back-orders, and the reports show what sold last season by week, so that the buying for the next one is done on numbers.
• Parties and fairs. A toy party at a home, a school fair or a stand at a market is an event under the member who runs it; the orders taken there are credited to that member, as in the party plan configuration.
• Subscription boxes. A monthly box of age-matched toys or craft kits is a recurring order through the repurchase module; the member who sold the subscription earns every month it renews.
• Member pages and the app. Each parent-member has a replicated website with the catalogue and their link, and the mobile app for orders taken at a party or a fair.
• Orders, payments and shipping. Cards, PayPal and Stripe; gift wrapping and a gift message as order options; shipping labels and tracking; an existing Shopify or WooCommerce store connects through the integration module.
• Returns. A returned toy reverses the commission within the window you set; a damaged-in-transit replacement does not.
• Customer records. Which family bought what, the children's ages and birthdays and the next contact, in the CRM, so that a member can suggest the right toy before a birthday.

Plans toy networks run

Party-based toy companies pay a retail commission to the member who ran the party, a host reward to the home that hosted it and a team bonus up a unilevel hierarchy with ranks for members who recruit and train other members. Subscription-box companies run the same unilevel on recurring volume. Companies that want faster team growth before the season use a binary plan with the holiday quarter as the qualification period. Because toy margins differ widely between plush, games and electronics, the MLM calculator is run per category before the plan goes live, and the commission module then applies different commission rates per category.

From a party to the payout

1. A member books a party or a fair; the host invites the families and the member records the event in the app.
2. Orders are taken at the event or afterwards on the member's page, with gift options and, for boxes, the subscription.
3. The orders ship from the nearest warehouse; the volume is credited to the member, the host reward is recorded and the team volume counts up the genealogy.
4. At the end of the period the commission module pays the plan and the payout run transfers the money to wallets and bank accounts, with statements.
5. Reports show sales by category, age group, member, event type and country, and subscription retention.

Toys, baby products and children's brands

Toys sit next to baby products and children's clothing in many networks; the configuration is shared, with one catalogue, one plan and age-filtered member pages, so that a family stays with the same member from the first rattle to the first bicycle. The software behind both is the Daani MLM computer software, hosted on the Daani server as MLM SaaS with hosting included.

Cost

The ready-made 4G package with the basic features costs $50 to $150 USD per month; the 5G and 6G packages, with the shop, variants, events, subscriptions, app and the other modules a toy network needs, go up to $800 per month; hosting on the Daani server, updates and support for as long as you are our client are included. Customised software is a one-time payment, 3,000 for the 5G package and 6,999 for the 6G, with discount offers of up to 70% from time to time. See the pricing page.

Frequently asked questions

Can we run parties and an online store in one network? Yes. Party orders and website orders are the same orders with a different source; both are credited to the member and both count in the plan.

Can commissions differ by toy category? Yes. Each category has its own commission rate and volume setting, so that a plush toy and an electronic toy pay what their margins allow.

How does the holiday peak affect the software? The software is hosted on the Daani server and scaled for the peak; stock, pre-orders and shipping run as usual, and the reports show the season by week.
