Funtastik Franchising

The vendor opportunity at Funtastik Franchising

Funtastik Franchising is a youth-services concept headquartered in Texas, with a total of 1 unit disclosed in the 2023 FDD. That single unit is company-owned; the number of franchised locations is not stated in the filing. For software vendors, this represents a very small addressable market today. The operator footprint shows 4 mapped operators across approximately 4 located units, all in Texas, with no multi-unit operators on file. The unit-band split confirms all operators fall into the 1-unit category, with zero in the 2–9, 10–24, or 25+ bands. Year-over-year unit growth is not disclosed.

Despite the small scale, the franchise is actively structured: the initial term runs 10 years, and the royalty rate is 8.0% of gross revenue. Average unit volume (AUV) is not reported in the 2023 FDD. The franchisor appears independently owned, with no parent company on file. For vendors who engage early, there may be an opportunity to shape the tech stack before the system scales.

Who controls software purchasing

The 2023 FDD lists two executives in Item 1: Roli Sangal, Chief Executive Officer, and Rajendra (“Raj”) Gupta, Managing Director and General Manager. With no other leadership disclosed, these two individuals form the entire known buying center. Any software pitch to Funtastik Franchising should be directed to this HQ team. There is no indication of a CIO, CTO, or dedicated IT procurement role in the filing. The absence of multi-unit franchisees further concentrates purchasing authority at the corporate level.

Mandated and current tech stack

The only technology system explicitly mandated in the 2023 FDD is the ATOM digital lab assistant app. No POS, CRM, scheduling, payroll, or other operational platforms are named as required or recommended. This suggests the tech stack is either minimal or left to franchisee discretion outside of the ATOM mandate. Vendors offering complementary youth-services software—such as class management, parent communication, or digital waiver tools—may find a greenfield opportunity, but must be prepared to sell into a single decision-making node at HQ.

Procurement, renewals, and timing

Item 8 of the FDD, which typically outlines procurement obligations and designated suppliers, was not extracted in the available data. The procurement model—whether designated supplier, approved supplier, or open—is therefore not publicly known from the 2023 filing. Vendors should inquire directly about supplier qualification processes during any discovery conversation.

Renewal conditions, detailed in Item 17, require franchisees to provide 180 days’ prior written notice, sign the then-current Franchise Agreement, pay a renewal fee, remodel to current standards, and secure legal rights to the premises. The renewal term is 10 years. With only one unit on file and no disclosed franchisee count, near-term renewal-driven software evaluation cycles are unlikely. The next natural trigger for a tech review would be new unit openings or a system-wide initiative from HQ.

How to read the Funtastik Franchising FDD

The 2023 Franchise Disclosure Document is the primary source for the facts on this page. It was filed with state franchise regulators and contains the legal and operational disclosures required under the FTC Franchise Rule. The embedded PDF viewer below provides full access to the document. Key sections for software vendors include Item 1 (the franchisor and its executives), Item 11 (franchisor’s assistance, including mandated technology), and Item 17 (renewal and termination). Because the system is small and executive-led, the FDD is the most reliable map of who buys and what is already in place.
