Management Franchise Package

Licence Fees

The Licence Fee and National Advertising Contribution are based on a percentage of your turnover (10% and 2% respectively, subject to minimums). This is important as it aligns the interests of the franchisee and the franchisor, facilitating greater and continued investment in the development of the network and the continual enhancement of ongoing support.

Funding

All High Street Banks offer highly competitive business loans and business account packages for new franchisees. Appropriate Franchise Departments of any Bank will confirm that ChipsAway is an approved business opportunity with a recognised, tried and tested formula; a business they will be delighted to support.

The strong reputation and proven track record of ChipsAway as a successful franchisor means that NatWest is prepared to lend up to £25,000 as an unsecured loan for ChipsAway approved candidates.
