What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Aira Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the maximum Website Fee is $400 per month. The FDD specifies that while the then-current fee is $198 per month, Aira Fitness retains the right to charge up to the maximum amount. This fee is due on the first day of each calendar month and is paid through their payment processing system, commencing when the franchisee opens for business.
For a prospective Aira Fitness franchisee, this means budgeting for a potential monthly expense of up to $400 for the Website Fee, even if the initial charge is lower. It is important to note that this fee is separate from other technology or marketing-related fees, such as the Marketing Services Fee or Technology Fee, which cover different services.
Franchisees should also be aware that Aira Fitness can adjust fixed fees based on increases in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) over the ten-year agreement term. While the Website Fee itself is capped at $400, other fees could increase, impacting the overall cost of operating the franchise. It would be prudent for potential franchisees to inquire about the historical frequency and magnitude of CPI-related adjustments to better forecast potential cost increases.
