What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All Team's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisee is responsible for all credit card fees associated with payments to All Team. This means that if a franchisee chooses to pay any fees to All Team via credit card, they will incur the additional cost of the credit card processing fees.
This could impact a franchisee's profitability, especially if they frequently use credit cards for payments. It is important for prospective franchisees to factor these potential fees into their financial projections. Franchisees should explore all available payment methods to determine the most cost-effective option for their business.
It is common practice for franchisors to pass on credit card fees to franchisees, as these fees can add up and significantly impact the franchisor's revenue. Franchisees should inquire about the specific credit cards accepted and the associated fees for each card to make informed decisions about payment methods.
