What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to My Salon Suite's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees must pay a Technology Fee. The then-current fee is $170 per month for a franchised business. This fee is due on the same day as the Royalty Fee.
My Salon Suite may charge franchisees this monthly fee for any custom or proprietary software used in their franchised business. It is important to note that this fee is subject to change, as it is the "then-current fee."
Prospective franchisees should consider the Technology Fee as part of their ongoing monthly expenses when evaluating the financial feasibility of a My Salon Suite franchise. It is also important to confirm with My Salon Suite whether the technology fee covers all required software or if there are additional technology-related costs.
