The vendor opportunity at Basecamp Fitness
Basecamp Fitness operates 20 locations — 16 franchised and 4 company-owned — under the parent company Anytime Fitness, LLC. Franchised outlets declined 15.8% year over year, a contraction that puts pressure on the franchisor to improve unit economics and operational efficiency. For software vendors, the addressable market is small but concentrated: every franchisee must buy a Technology & Fitness Equipment Package from the franchisor or a designated vendor, and the franchisor has a sole supplier for studio management, billing, payment, and scheduling software.
Who controls software purchasing
Item 2 of the FDD names the leadership team at Extraordinary Brands, LLC, the entity managing Basecamp Fitness. Paul Flick is Chief Executive Officer, Nigel Skiathitis is President of Brands, Dave Cuff is Chief Development Officer, Katherine B. Richardson is Chief Operating Officer, and Thomas Higham is General Counsel. Technology procurement is centralized: Item 11 states that franchisees must purchase the Technology & Fitness Equipment Package from Basecamp, ProVision, or another designated vendor. The franchisor may require upgrades or updates to computer and technology systems during the franchise term, and it anticipates that franchisees will be required to do so.
Tech named in the FDD, and what is actually required
Item 11 names Medallia as a mandated system — the FDD obliges the franchisee to use it. The filing also states that Basecamp has a sole supplier of studio management, billing, payment, and scheduling software, which franchisees must use to operate their studios. The Technology & Fitness Equipment Package includes iPads, tablet devices, computers, lighting, audio and video systems, software, a point of sale system, and certain cloud-based technology. In 2025, ProVision provided information technology services, technology, and security systems — including computers, sound systems, software, technology and software support, installation services, and security monitoring — to franchisees. EB Distribution provided branded and other products for use and retail sale in studios. The franchisor may continue to designate ProVision and/or EB Distribution as providers for a transitional period following the merger.
Procurement, renewals, and timing
Item 8 establishes an approved-supplier list with three tiers: mandatory vendors (must purchase from them), designated vendors (must purchase from vendors the franchisor approves), and preferred vendors (approved but not requiring approval in their category). Franchisees must purchase the Build-Out Package from the franchisor, and certain items logo'd with the brand's marks — including branded mobile applications, retail products for resale, workout formats, and fitness programming — are sole-sourced. The franchisor may revoke approval of any supplier or item with written notice. Franchisees may propose a supplier for approval in some categories.
Item 17 governs renewals. A franchisee in good standing may renew for an additional 5-year period, but must sign a new franchise agreement that may contain materially different terms, including a reduction in protected territory. The franchisee must update or move the location to comply with then-current standards, sign a general release, pay a renewal fee, and show the right to remain in possession of the location. Staff must complete any required refreshing training. The Area Development Agreement cannot be renewed.

The embedded PDF below is the brand's 2026 Franchise Disclosure Document. Start with Item 8 for supplier restrictions, Item 11 for technology and training requirements, Item 17 for renewal and transfer terms, and Item 19 for financial performance representations. The FDD makes a financial performance representation, but the Item 19 figure is for the cohort the filing defines — not a system-wide average.
