JACK'S FRANCHISE START-UP COSTS.

Run a Quick-Service Restaurant Franchise

Our Franchise Royalties

Jack in the Box assesses modest royalty fees, like other franchises, in part to ensure you have the best possible resources to run your business and draw customers to your location. For instance, our five-daypart menu that entices customers to come any time of day. Or our new order-ahead mobile app. We roll out new menu items on a regular basis. It’s what keeps our customers continually engaged with our brand and makes them excited to come back.

Principal ongoing fees include:

Royalty (excluding Games & Devices): 5% of gross sales
Marketing: 5% of gross sales

Is the Jack in the Box Menu All Day?

One valuable form of brand protection we have to offer is our all-day menu. While we provide menus geared towards a specific time of day (like our breakfast selection and late-night Munchie Meals), customers can order anything they’d like at any time of day. These kinds of options continue to set Jack in the Box apart from other minute burger franchises that offer customers far less flexibility and selection.
