What is the minimum annual purchase requirement for yard letters/signs from Card My Yard?

According to Card My Yard's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are currently required to purchase a minimum of $500 in yard letters/signs (or related materials and equipment) from Card My Yard each year. This requirement ensures that franchisees maintain a consistent supply of branded materials necessary for operating their business.

Card My Yard also maintains control over the sourcing of inventory, supplies, and equipment. Franchisees must adhere to the franchisor's standards and specifications for all products used in the business. Approved suppliers, which may include Card My Yard itself or affiliated entities, are designated based on their ability to meet quality standards, maintain adequate quality controls, and reliably supply the needs of the franchise network.

The FDD states that Card My Yard and its affiliates may derive revenue from franchisee purchases and leases, including direct charges for products and services and payments from approved suppliers. This arrangement is typical in franchising, where franchisors often benefit from the purchasing power of their network and can negotiate favorable terms with suppliers. Franchisees need to be aware of these arrangements and factor them into their cost analysis.
