For what purposes is wireless internet permitted at a Pump It Up franchised business location?
Pump_It_Up Franchise · 2025 FDDAnswer from 2025 FDD Document
Wireless internet at your Franchised Business location is permitted for private use and/or for public guest internet access. If you provide guest access to wireless internet, you should add a designated line, if feasible, to avoid impacting your business operations. If a dedicated guest line is not feasible, you should obtain internet service for the Franchised Business with a minimum speed of 50 MBPS download and 10 MBPS upload. All guest wireless lines must comply with our System Standards and all PCI Compliance Standards to provide safe, clean internet browsing. All wireless traffic should be firewalled from payment processing traffic using PCI compliant methods listed in the Local Network Section.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Pump It Up Franchise Disclosure Document, wireless internet at a franchised location is permitted for two specific purposes: private use by the franchisee and their staff, and public guest internet access for customers.
Pump It Up requires franchisees to maintain high-speed internet access for regular business operations. The minimum speed requirement is 30 MBPS download and 5 MBPS upload. However, if the franchisee chooses to provide guest access to wireless internet, and cannot add a designated line, they must obtain internet service with a minimum speed of 50 MBPS download and 10 MBPS upload to accommodate the additional usage.
Pump It Up mandates that all guest wireless lines must comply with the brand's System Standards and all PCI Compliance Standards to ensure safe internet browsing. Additionally, all wireless traffic should be firewalled from payment processing traffic using PCI compliant methods, as listed in the Local Network Section, to protect sensitive financial data.
