What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bumper Man's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the initial franchise fee is $50,000. This fee grants the franchisee the right to operate a Bumper Man business within a designated area. The initial franchise fee includes the initial set of Bumper Man tools and equipment required to establish your Bumper Business provided to you on loan and the initial supply of certain products and materials (e.g., invoices, business cards, stationery, and marketing materials).
Bumper Man does offer a financing option for a portion of the initial franchise fee to qualified franchisee operators. New franchise operators who meet their credit criteria may pay half of the initial franchisee fee upon the execution of the Franchise Agreement and pay the remaining half (up to $25,000) in 120 equal semi-monthly installments during a five-year term at an interest rate of 10% per annum, secured by your right, title and interest in the Franchise Agreement.
The initial franchise fee may be partially refunded if Bumper Man determines the franchisee has not satisfactorily completed training. Default of your payment obligations under the note constitutes a default under the Franchise Agreement for which Bumper Man may terminate the Franchise Agreement if you fail to cure your default of your payment obligations under the note.
