Winmark Corporation is introducing two new franchisee fees tied to its technology and marketing programs. Starting on September 1, 2026, it will charge a monthly Software Fee of $295 plus taxes per store, which it estimates at about $400,000 per month in total. These proceeds will fund support, management, and modernization of its point-of-sale system, including personnel, vendors, and technology infrastructure.
For its Plato’s Closet brand, Winmark is also launching a North American Ad Fund, requiring contributions equal to 2% of sales beginning July 1, 2026. This increases required marketing spend for Plato’s Closet franchisees from 5% to 6% of sales, with 2% flowing into the Ad Fund. If this fund had existed in fiscal 2025, it would have been about $13.5 million. Winmark expects both changes to raise revenues with a corresponding rise in expenses and has added a new risk factor noting that higher fees and system initiatives could strain franchisee relationships and system performance.
