What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Beggars Pizza FDD, SpeedLine will provide the customer with a software key and assign an access code to activate the software for use by the customer. The terms of the license dictate the access code's validity. If the license is unlimited, the access code will not expire or will be extended by SpeedLine as necessary.
For a fixed prepaid license term, the access code is valid only for that prepaid term. Similarly, for a subscription license, the access code remains active only as long as the subscription is current. The FDD stipulates that the software will become inoperable upon the expiry or withdrawal of the access code, aligning with the agreement's terms.
Beggars Pizza franchisees should be aware that continued access to the software is contingent upon maintaining an active license, whether through an unlimited term, a prepaid term, or a subscription. Franchisees need to understand the specific licensing terms outlined in their agreement with SpeedLine to avoid any disruption in their software services.
