What is the minimum amount a Card My Yard franchisee must spend annually on yard letters/signs from Card My Yard?

According to Card My Yard's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to purchase a minimum of $500 worth of yard letters/signs (or related materials and equipment) from Card My Yard annually. This requirement ensures that franchisees maintain a consistent standard of product quality and contributes to brand uniformity across the Card My Yard franchise system.

This mandatory purchase from Card My Yard or its designated suppliers has several implications for franchisees. It represents a recurring operational expense that must be factored into their financial planning. While it guarantees a certain level of quality and consistency in the yard signs, it also limits the franchisee's ability to source these materials from potentially cheaper alternative suppliers.

Card My Yard also benefits from this arrangement, as it creates a steady revenue stream for the franchisor through the sale of these required materials. Franchisees should consider this mandatory purchase amount when evaluating the overall cost and potential profitability of a Card My Yard franchise. It is important to understand what types of materials and equipment this $500 minimum applies to, and whether there are options to purchase higher-value or more diverse products to meet this requirement.
