What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Exit's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Sponsoring Bonus is contingent upon Exit receiving the Company Development Fee for the Recruit in question. Specifically, Exit, as the franchisor, is responsible for paying all Sponsoring Bonuses throughout the entire Exit system. These bonuses are typically disbursed via electronic funds transfer to the Sponsor.
If the Company Development Fee is received electronically, Exit typically pays the Sponsoring Bonus within seven days. However, if the Company Development Fee is not received electronically, or if the associate has not elected to receive the Sponsoring Bonus electronically, the corresponding Sponsoring Bonus will be paid out within 30 days.
It's important to note that Sponsoring Bonuses are calculated and paid out in the currency of the country where the transaction is finalized. Additionally, each Sponsoring Bonus is subject to a Sponsoring Bonus Fee of 10% of the Sponsoring Bonus per Transaction Side, with a maximum of $75 per Transaction Side. This fee is deducted by Exit before the Sponsoring Bonus is disbursed.
