What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beem Light Sauna's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the estimated cost for the Technology System ranges from $5,500 to $7,500. This cost includes hardware, software licenses, related equipment, and network connections, including installation costs. Franchisees must purchase all components of the Technology System from Beem Light Sauna's approved vendors.
The Technology System typically includes a server, computer, tablet, printer, equipment for connecting to the technology platform, a credit card scanner, and a point-of-sale system. Franchisees are required to maintain a high-speed internet connection for the Technology System and use third-party software from approved vendors.
In addition to the initial cost, franchisees must pay a Technology Fee of $550 per month (reduced to $450 per month during the three months before opening). They also need to pay a license fee to MindBody, the approved POS system vendor, which is currently $599 per month. While Beem Light Sauna does not currently require maintenance contracts, vendors may offer optional contracts estimated at around $2,500 per year.
Beem Light Sauna requires unrestricted electronic access to the Technology System for data retrieval. Franchisees are responsible for maintaining the system, training employees in its use, and ensuring compliance with security standards, including Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards. Failure to properly operate and maintain the Technology System can result in consequences for which the franchisee is responsible.
