According to the 2025 Dq Treat FDD, the Participation Agreement for U.S. franchisees and sub-franchisees includes several components. The agreement itself is between First Data Resources, LLC (GIFT) and the Operated Location, Participating Franchisee, or Sub-Franchisee.

The Participation Agreement also requires completion of Exhibit A, which involves providing bank details such as the bank name, account number, account title, and ABA routing number, along with a voided check. Exhibit B requires a list of each Dairy Queen or Orange Julius Store Number and address information for each Designated Location participating in the program.

Additionally, Addendum #1 is included if the franchisee chooses to rent or purchase an FD-150 terminal for gift card processing. Franchisees must also complete and sign the FD Prepaid Implementation and Boarding Form Version Dq. After the agreement is processed, GIFT returns a fully executed copy along with a cover letter containing the GIFT Merchant ID Number and First Data Net log-on information for accessing gift card reconciliation reports.
