What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Card My Yard's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Principal Owner and General Manager are required to successfully complete the initial online training program before the Opening Date. If there is a successor or replacement Principal Owner or General Manager, they must also successfully complete the initial online training program within a reasonable time. This must be no more than sixty (60) days after the date on which their predecessor ceased to be employed or serve as Principal Owner.

Card My Yard may also designate other personnel who are required to complete the initial training program or any additional training that Card My Yard may require from time to time. The initial training for the Principal Owner and General Manager is provided via Internet video courses or at Card My Yard's offices in Springville, Utah, or other designated locations at no charge. However, Card My Yard reserves the right to charge a reasonable fee for training any additional persons, including any successor or replacement personnel, and for any additional training programs.

The franchisee is responsible for all expenses incurred in connection with any initial or additional training, including travel, lodging, meals, and wages. If the Principal Owner or General Manager fails to satisfactorily complete the initial training program, and the franchisee fails to cure the default within ninety (90) days following written notice from Card My Yard, Card My Yard may terminate the Franchise Agreement. Card My Yard also offers on-site remedial training if they determine it to be necessary, but the franchisee may be required to pay a per diem fee and reimburse expenses for travel, lodging, and meals.
