What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Learningrx Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees must pay interest on late payments. The interest rate is 1% per month, or the maximum interest rate allowed by applicable law, whichever is less. This applies to any late payments due under the Franchise Agreement as well as any payments returned due to insufficient funds.
In practical terms, this means that if a Learningrx franchisee is late on a payment, they will incur an interest charge. The exact amount will depend on the size of the payment and the prevailing legal interest rate in their jurisdiction, but it will not exceed 1% per month. Franchisees should be aware of this policy and ensure they make payments on time to avoid these charges.
Furthermore, the Learningrx FDD states that the franchisee is responsible for any damages, expenses through appeal, collection costs, and reasonable attorneys' fees that Learningrx incurs due to the franchisee's failure to make required payments or due to payments returned for insufficient funds. In addition to these costs, Learningrx may also impose a fine according to the Operations Manual. This highlights the importance of maintaining sufficient funds and adhering to the payment schedule outlined in the agreement to avoid additional financial burdens.
