What payment method is currently required for royalty fees and other amounts due to Desi District?

According to Desi District's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are currently required to pay royalty fees and other amounts due to the company via preauthorized bank draft. However, Desi District retains the right to require an alternative payment method in the future.

This means that as a Desi District franchisee, you will need to set up a system for automatic payments from your bank account to cover these fees. This ensures timely payments and reduces the risk of late fees or other penalties. The royalty fee is 4% of your gross sales and is due weekly on Tuesday.

It is important to note that while preauthorized bank drafts are the current standard, Desi District can change this requirement. Franchisees should stay informed of any changes to payment policies to avoid any disruptions or issues with their franchise agreement. This flexibility allows Desi District to adapt to changing financial systems or operational needs.

Prospective franchisees should confirm with Desi District if there are any plans to change the payment method in the near future and understand the procedures for setting up and managing the preauthorized bank draft system.
