What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Basecamp Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Music Licensing Fee is subject to change. The current fee is $1,100 per year for each Basecamp Studio. However, the FDD states that this fee may change annually.
The fee adjustment is tied to increases from Basecamp Fitness's music vendor. This means that if the vendor raises its rates, Basecamp Fitness may pass those increases on to franchisees. Franchisees will receive notice of any changes to the Music Licensing Fee.
It is important for prospective franchisees to factor in the potential for annual increases to the Music Licensing Fee when assessing the overall cost of operating a Basecamp Fitness franchise. Franchisees should inquire about the historical frequency and magnitude of these increases to better anticipate future expenses.
