What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Aira Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the National Marketing Fee is due on the first day of each calendar month. This fee covers the Gross Sales of the preceding calendar month. Payments are processed through Aira Fitness's payment processing system, and the payment obligation begins 30 days after the franchisee opens for business.
Currently, Aira Fitness is not collecting the National Marketing Fee, although the standard rate is 1% of Gross Sales. However, Aira Fitness retains the right to begin collecting this fee in the future.
As a prospective franchisee, it's important to note that while the fee is not currently being collected, this could change. Therefore, franchisees should factor in the potential cost of 1% of gross sales when forecasting expenses. It would be prudent to inquire with Aira Fitness about the circumstances under which they might reinstate the National Marketing Fee to better prepare for potential future costs.
