According to the 2025 FDD, Big Air Trampoline Park franchisees must pay a monthly POS (Point of Sale) Licensing Fee. This fee is set at $1,200 per month, which equates to an annual expense of $14,400. In addition to the POS Licensing Fee, franchisees also pay a Technology Support Fee for the software, which is $300 per month or $3,600 annually.
The POS system is a critical component of the Big Air Trampoline Park business, handling transactions and potentially other operational functions. The monthly licensing fee ensures that franchisees have the right to use the software and receive necessary updates and support. It's important to note that these fees are in addition to the initial costs of purchasing and installing the computer system, which can range from $20,000 to $85,000, plus an installation fee between $5,000 and $8,000.
Prospective franchisees should factor these ongoing technology costs into their financial projections. While the first year Technology Support Fee is currently waived by the supplier, this is subject to change, so franchisees should confirm the current policy with Big Air Trampoline Park. Understanding the full scope of technology-related expenses is crucial for assessing the overall profitability of a Big Air Trampoline Park franchise.
