What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Body20's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees must pay all fees and payments due to Body20 within ten days of receiving an invoice. This requirement applies to all fees other than Royalty Fees, Brand Fund Fees, Technology Fees, and Music Licensing Fees, which Body20 refers to as "Operating Fees."
Operating Fees have a different payment schedule. Franchisees must pay Royalty Fees and Brand Fund Fees weekly, within five business days after the end of each calendar week, based on Gross Sales for the preceding week. The Technology Fee must be paid within five business days after the end of each month.
This ten-day payment window for invoiced fees is a standard practice in franchising. Franchisees should ensure they have sufficient cash flow to meet this obligation to avoid potential late fees or other penalties specified in the Franchise Agreement. Franchisees should also maintain organized records of all invoices and payments to ensure compliance and avoid disputes.
