The vendor opportunity at Gameday Men's Health
262 Gameday Men's Health clinics run under the 2025 FDD — 257 franchised and 5 company-owned — in the health services segment, under parent Gameday Health Management. Item 19 of the FDD makes no financial performance representation.
Who controls software purchasing
Item 8 mandates QuickBooks Online Plus and makes the franchisor the sole supplier of required technology services, billed to franchisees as a Technology Startup Fee and a Technology Maintenance Fee. Clinics must also license Medical Practice Software — currently around $500 a month plus a $1,000 installation fee — enroll administrators in the franchisor's required Electronic Medical Records (EMR) system, and maintain a merchant account with Priority Payments for payment processing. That is a corporate-level purchasing decision.
Tech named in the FDD, and what is actually required
Beyond QuickBooks Online and the Medical Practice Software license, Item 11's own words require a Microsoft Office 365 "Business Standard" license (currently about $12.50 a month) for each Computer System and high-speed internet at every station, and Item 8 requires replacement inventory of consumables, Medical Equipment, Clinic FF&E, communications, CRM services, and lead generation software only from approved vendors. Item 7 names Google Business Profile by Google.
Procurement, renewals, and timing
Item 8 runs an approved-supplier list: Medical Equipment and Clinic FF&E must come from designated or approved vendors, and franchisees may propose an alternate supplier for approval. After the first 60 days, the royalty is the greater of 6% of gross revenue or a minimum royalty, on a 10-year initial term. Item 17 renewal runs two 5-year terms and requires written notice, full compliance, renovation, a signed release, and a renewal fee, at the franchisor's discretion.
