How much does a Tint World franchise make?

Tint World is one of the franchisors that answers this on the record: its most recent FDD makes an Item 19 financial performance representation — actual unit earnings figures, disclosed by the franchisor itself. The headline figure did not machine-read cleanly from this filing, so we don't print one; Item 19 of the source FDD has the tables. See every automotive brand that discloses earnings in the Automotive franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.

Tint World franchise profit vs. revenue

Revenue is not profit. An Item 19 almost always reports sales — what a location takes in — not what an owner keeps. Out of that number come Tint World's 6% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a Tint World franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "Tint World franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure.

Tint World lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)

Tint World's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026) does disclose 6 legal proceedings in Item 3 . Item 3 is the item where a franchisor must put its material legal history on the record. Two things it is not: it covers the franchisor and its predecessors, parents and affiliates, so a disclosed case is not necessarily a suit against Tint World itself; and a disclosure is a fact, not a finding of wrongdoing — most entries are contract disputes with former franchisees, which every large system accumulates. Item 3 of the source FDD describes each case.

Tint World closures & failure rate

Before you sign, Tint World will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what Tint World's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a automotive of this kind.

The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. Tint World's latest tables show a growing franchised network. Its franchised-outlet closure rate — closures, terminations and non-renewals against outlets — is 5.1%, against a automotive median of 2.5% — worse than the category. Net franchised outlets moved +4 to 142 in the latest reported year.

Who owns Tint World?

Tint World's franchise is offered by Tint World, LLC — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at WI DFI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.
