What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Even Hotels' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, fees for required and optional advertising materials are due upon request and are payable to Holiday. This means that Even Hotels franchisees will need to pay for these materials when Holiday (presumably referring to IHG, the parent company) requests payment.
This 'on request' payment structure differs from fixed monthly or annual fees, requiring franchisees to budget and plan for these expenses as they arise. The 'on request' nature of the fee means that the franchisee needs to be prepared to make the payment when Holiday requests it, which could impact cash flow if not properly anticipated.
Franchisees should clarify with Even Hotels what triggers these requests, how far in advance they will be notified, and what the typical range of costs is for these advertising materials to better manage their budget and ensure compliance with Holiday's marketing requirements.
