What This Means (2025 FDD)
Based on the 2025 Beggars Pizza FDD, the franchise agreement grants franchisees a personal, non-exclusive, and non-transferable license to implement and use one copy of the SpeedLine software. This license is subject to the terms outlined in the agreement.
Specifically, the agreement does not allow a Beggars Pizza franchisee to acquire software updates for modules without a valid and current SpeedLine Software License Agreement or SpeedDine Online Ordering System Subscription Agreement. Any updates provided are considered part of the software and are governed by the terms of the applicable SpeedLine agreement.
In practical terms, a Beggars Pizza franchisee cannot sublicense or transfer their rights to use the SpeedLine software to another party. They must maintain a valid license agreement to receive updates and support for the software modules they use. This ensures that Beggars Pizza maintains control over the use and distribution of its licensed software, and that franchisees adhere to the terms and conditions set forth by SpeedLine.
