What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Deer Solution's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the ACH Authorization Form can be found in Exhibit 4 of the Franchise Agreement. This form is required to allow Deer Solution to electronically debit your designated bank account for all fees payable to them or their affiliates. This is a standard practice in franchising, as it ensures timely and consistent payment of fees.
As a Deer Solution franchisee, you will be required to sign this ACH Authorization Form, granting Deer Solution the ability to automatically withdraw funds from your business bank account. You must also deposit the Gross Sales of your Deer Solution Business into bank accounts subject to this ACH authorization. This requirement ensures that Deer Solution can collect royalty fees and other payments directly from your revenue stream.
Furthermore, Deer Solution mandates that you install and use pre-authorized payment, business management, and electronic funds transfer systems that they designate. You are responsible for covering all service charges and fees imposed by your bank to facilitate these electronic debits. Deer Solution also retains the option to directly collect the Gross Sales from your Deer Solution Business, pre-deducting all fees and payments owed to them, their affiliates, or designated suppliers, and then remit the remaining balance to you.
