What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beem Light Sauna's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees must pay a monthly license fee to MindBody, the approved POS system vendor. This fee is currently $599 per month.
This ongoing monthly expense is in addition to the Technology Fee that franchisees must pay directly to Beem Light Sauna for technology-related services, which is currently $550 per month (or $450 per month during the three-month period prior to opening). The MindBody license fee covers the use of their point-of-sale system, which is a required component of the Beem Light Sauna's Technology System.
Prospective franchisees should factor this $599 monthly fee into their operating expense projections. It is important to confirm with Beem Light Sauna whether this fee is subject to change and to understand the terms and conditions of the MindBody license agreement.
