The vendor opportunity at Priceless Priceless runs 39 franchised automotive-services locations, all franchisee-owned, with a 4% royalty and 5.4% year-over-year unit growth. The FDD makes a financial performance representation in Item 19. Priceless is part of NP Auto Group alongside sibling brand NextCar — a structure worth checking for cross-brand purchasing.
Who controls software purchasing Item 2 is where Priceless's officers are named. Item 8 already requires franchisees to buy the brand's Reservation System and ASAP computer system from the franchisor or an affiliate, which puts core operating technology under corporate control regardless of which officer signs off.
Tech named in the FDD, and what is actually required None of the systems in the filing are mandated. Apple Pay by Apple, Facebook by Meta, Google Pay by Google, Instagram by Meta, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Snapchat and Twitter by X are all named in the filing without being tied to any requirement to use them.
Procurement, renewals, and timing Operator data maps 21 operators, 5 of them multi-unit, across roughly 27 located units, concentrated in Florida (11), New Jersey (7), California (5), Connecticut (2) and Michigan (1). Item 8 runs an approved-supplier list, letting the franchisor name a sole Preferred Provider — including itself — for specific goods or services; franchisees may propose alternate suppliers for approval outside of the mandated Reservation and ASAP systems. Item 17 sets Priceless's specific renewal, transfer and termination conditions — see the filing below for the details.
How to read the Priceless FDD The 2026 FDD was filed with state franchise regulators. The embedded PDF viewer below covers Item 8's supplier terms, Item 11's technology requirements, Item 17's renewal conditions and Item 19's financial performance representation.
