What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Beggars Pizza Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee needs prior written consent from SpeedLine to change the business location where the SpeedLine software is used. The franchise agreement grants the franchisee a license to implement and use one copy of the installed software products at the business location of the customer. This is based on the number of SpeedLine Solutions software user licenses received by the customer.
This license is personal, non-exclusive, and non-transferable. The terms and conditions of the agreement apply to all changes or amendments, unless a new Software License Agreement is entered into by the parties, at the option of SpeedLine.
This means a Beggars Pizza franchisee cannot move the SpeedLine software to a new location or increase the number of terminals using the software without first getting approval from SpeedLine. Failure to obtain this consent would be a breach of the franchise agreement and could have legal and financial repercussions for the franchisee.
