What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Checkersrallys's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Order Ahead Program Administration Fee is due bi-monthly. This fee is 2% of the total price charged to a customer who orders approved food, beverage, and other items through Checkersrallys's optional Order Ahead Program.
This fee is only payable if a franchisee is eligible and chooses to participate in the Order Ahead Program, which allows customers to pre-order items for pickup from Checkersrallys restaurants. The Order Ahead Program Administration Fee is separate from other fees such as the royalty fee, national production fund contributions, and cooperative advertising fees.
Prospective franchisees should consider this bi-monthly fee as part of their ongoing operational costs if they plan to utilize the Order Ahead Program. It's important to evaluate the potential revenue generated through the program against the administration fee to determine its profitability for the franchise.
