What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beem Light Sauna's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Technology-Related Fees are paid monthly. These fees are part of the initial investment for opening a Beem Light Sauna studio.
The Technology-Related Fees include two components: a Technology Fee of $450 per month, which is paid to Beem Light Sauna, and a POS (Point of Sale) system license fee of $599 per month, which is paid to a third-party vendor, MindBody. These fees are specifically incurred in the three months prior to the studio opening.
In total, the estimated Technology-Related Fees amount to $3,147, which covers the pre-opening period. This lump sum is paid monthly to both Beem Light Sauna and the third-party vendors. It is important for prospective franchisees to factor these ongoing technology costs into their initial budget and operational expenses.
