The Century 21 stack in 2026: included tools, office-level splits, and the Compass era
Century 21 is a franchise network — splits and fees are set office by office — while the brand layer ships real tools: 21Online, MoxiWorks, Boost powered by Lone Wolf, and free Canva Enterprise. The bigger story is ownership: Compass closed its acquisition of C21’s parent Anywhere in January 2026. Here’s the line-by-line.
Per Century 21’s own careers materials: 21Online (productivity platform), MoxiWorks presentations and agent tools, Canva marketing templates, Boost, powered by Lone Wolf (listing ads across Facebook/Instagram/Nextdoor and 1,000+ sites), seller reports, direct-mail programs, and C21 University. Parent Anywhere added free Canva Enterprise for all affiliated agents in a Q4 2025 rollout — and on January 9, 2026, Compass completed its $1.6B acquisition of Anywhere, with brands slated to move toward Compass’s platform over time. Splits are office-level; third-party guides describe common 70/30 and 90/10 plan shapes with caps, a ~6% franchise royalty, and $0–$350/mo office fees — office-specific, never brand-standard. No C21-branded AI product had launched at check time.

What to ask about the Century 21 stack
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| What does MY office include? | Franchise network — the brand list is the floor, not your office’s reality; get the inclusion + fee sheet in writing |
| What changes under Compass? | The Jan 2026 close puts C21 on another company’s platform roadmap — ask how the tools you rely on transition |
| AI capabilities | No C21-branded AI had shipped at check time — ask specifically about voice AI and follow-up automation if those matter to your workflow |
| Export, in writing | The standing rule: document the export path before your database lives anywhere |
| Watch out — where BrokerDIY doesn’t fit | If your office’s brand stack covers your workflow at office-subsidized cost, stacking another platform just adds a bill — BrokerDIY is for brokerages and teams that want to own their operations |
Questions Century 21 agents ask.
Does Century 21 provide a CRM?
The brand layer includes MoxiWorks agent tools and the 21Online platform, and some franchise offices deploy BoldTrail PRO on top. Which of those your office includes — and what it costs you — is an office-level decision in a franchise network, so the honest answer starts with your broker’s inclusion sheet.
What are Century 21’s commission splits?
There is no brand-standard split — each C21 office sets its own. Third-party guides describe common shapes: a 70/30 ’Kickstart’ plan and a 90/10 ’Relentless’ plan, caps after which agents keep 100%, roughly a 6% franchise royalty, and monthly fees ranging widely by office. Those are examples, not rates — your office’s numbers are the only ones that count.
Can I use my own tools alongside the C21 stack?
Yes. BrokerDIY is built to orchestrate on top of whatever the brand and your office provide — voice agents, follow-up sequences, white-label e-sign — with export-friendly data so you’re never locked in.
