For Carvel, where can I find the definition of 'Minimum Specifications' for the POS system?

According to Carvel's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the definition of 'Minimum Specifications' for the POS system can be found in the Manuals. Carvel may update these specifications from time to time at its sole discretion.

As a Carvel franchisee, it is crucial to adhere to the Minimum Specifications for the POS system to ensure compatibility and proper function with the support services provided by Carvel or its affiliates. The support services do not extend to hardware and software that fall outside these minimum specifications. Carvel also provides support for specific software versions identified in the Minimum Specifications and will not support outdated software no longer supported by the licensor.

Carvel retains the right to make the final judgment on whether a franchisee's POS system meets the Minimum Specifications required for support services. Therefore, prospective franchisees should carefully review the Manuals and any updates to understand the required hardware and software to avoid potential issues with support and system compatibility. Franchisees are responsible for implementing temporary procedures or workarounds to maintain continuous business operation while support services are being provided and for backing up their own data and files.
