In a chiptuning file service, a "master" is the main account that manages tuning and sub-dealers, while "slaves" are sub-dealers who order files under the master. This structure lets you scale by onboarding other workshops as your customers, each with their own pricing and credits.
Master account
The master controls the vehicle catalogue, file production (or automation), pricing and the network of sub-dealers. It receives orders and delivers finished files.
Slave accounts
Slaves are workshops that order files from the master. They get their own branded portal access, credit balance and support chat, without needing tuning skills themselves.
Why it matters for scaling
Master/slave management turns your file service into a distribution network: every workshop you onboard becomes recurring revenue. TuningFile handles slave onboarding, per-slave pricing, credits and invoicing automatically.
