What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Fly To Fit's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the special support fee is due 'on demand.'

The special support fee is charged when Fly To Fit provides in-person support at the franchisee's request.
The amount of the special support fee is Fly To Fit's then-current fee, plus expenses. Currently, this fee is $600 per day, in addition to any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Fly To Fit, such as travel, lodging, and meals for employees providing the support.
This fee structure means that franchisees need to be prepared to pay this fee promptly if they request and receive in-person support from Fly To Fit. Franchisees should factor in the potential cost of this support when budgeting and managing their business finances, as 'on demand' payment terms require immediate financial readiness.
