What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Byrider's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to have two Google Gemini licenses per location. The approximate annual cost for each license is $260.64. Therefore, the total annual cost for the required Google Gemini licenses would be approximately $521.28 per location.
This cost is part of the technology system that Byrider franchisees must license and use to operate their business. The technology system includes proprietary software, off-the-shelf software, hardware, SaaS platforms, and a dealer management system with integrated customer relations management. Franchisees are responsible for paying the costs of the technology system to the appropriate vendor upon receiving invoices.
In addition to Google Gemini, franchisees are also required to pay for Google Access and Services, which costs $129.36 annually per active user, and Remote VPN Software, which costs $350 per location. These technology costs, along with the Google Gemini licenses, contribute to the overall technology expenses that a Byrider franchisee can expect to incur.
