How much does a Money Pages franchise make?

Money Pages is one of the franchisors that answers this on the record: its most recent FDD makes an Item 19 financial performance representation — actual unit earnings figures, disclosed by the franchisor itself. The headline figure is $1,359,281 in average unit revenue — read it alongside what Item 19 says about which units it covers (often only mature or top-performing locations). See every business services brand that discloses earnings in the Business services franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.

Money Pages franchise profit vs. revenue

Revenue is not profit. An Item 19 almost always reports sales — what a location takes in — not what an owner keeps. Out of that number come the royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a Money Pages franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "Money Pages franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure.

Money Pages lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)

Money Pages's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2024) discloses no litigation in Item 3. That is a real signal rather than a gap: the FTC Franchise Rule requires a franchisor to disclose material litigation involving itself, its predecessors, parents, affiliates and management, so an empty Item 3 in a current filing means there was nothing it was required to report. It is worth reading alongside the churn numbers — a system can have a clean Item 3 and still be losing franchisees, which is what Item 20 shows.

Money Pages closures & failure rate

Before you sign, Money Pages will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what Money Pages's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a business services of this kind.

The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. Money Pages's latest tables show significant franchisee turnover. Its franchised-outlet closure rate — closures, terminations and non-renewals against outlets — is 20%, against a business services median of 3.3% — worse than the category. Net franchised outlets moved -1 to 14 in the latest reported year.

Who owns Money Pages?

Money Pages's franchise is offered by Money Pages Franchising Group, LLC — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2024), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at CA DFPI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.

Money Pages franchise — frequently asked

Who owns Money Pages — who is the franchisor?

Money Pages's most recently filed FDD (2024) names Money Pages Franchising Group, LLC as the franchisor — the entity you would actually sign the franchise agreement with, as stated on the disclosure document itself. A registry filing names the franchisor, not necessarily its ultimate parent company.

How much does a Money Pages franchise cost?

Money Pages's most recently filed FDD (Item 7) puts the total estimated initial investment at $109,700 – $240,500, with an initial franchise fee of $50,000. That price is the franchisor's own estimate of what it takes to open, not a quote. Against business services peers it sits in the lower quartile (median $103,290).

How much profit does a Money Pages franchise make?

Money Pages discloses unit earnings in Item 19, but that figure is revenue — sales — not profit. Royalties, the ad fund, rent, payroll and supplies all come out of it, and no FDD discloses what an owner nets. Any Money Pages franchise profit number quoted elsewhere is an estimate. The headline figure Money Pages discloses is $1,359,281 in average unit revenue.

Does Money Pages disclose financial performance (Item 19)?

Yes — Money Pages reports unit-level earnings in Item 19. The headline figure is $1,359,281 in average unit revenue, as the franchisor states it.

Are there lawsuits against Money Pages?

No — Money Pages's most recently filed FDD (2024) discloses no litigation in Item 3. Franchisors must disclose material litigation involving themselves, their predecessors, parents, affiliates and management, so an empty Item 3 is a genuine signal rather than an omission.

Is Money Pages a good franchise to buy?

Nobody can answer that from Money Pages's numbers alone — it comes down to how its investment, earnings, litigation and franchisee churn stack up against business services peers and against your own budget. Our read on this filing is medium risk. Every figure behind that read is on this page for free. If you're comparing options, the free shortlist on this page matches you with 5–10 franchises that fit your budget and industry.
