What it takes to open a five-bay Shotgun Golf (four open-concept bays and one private bay in roughly 2,500 sq ft), before HST. Where you land in the range depends mostly on the condition of the space and local construction pricing.

Royalty + brand fund
7% + 3%
of gross revenue, monthly
That covers everything to open the doors: the franchise fee, TrackMan iO in every bay, the bay build-out, leasehold improvements, lounge furniture, your lease deposit, opening supplies and working capital. The FDD itemizes each line.
Once you're open, you pay a 7% royalty and contribute 3% to the brand marketing fund, both on gross revenue. The royalty covers the booking and automation platform, remote support and everything that keeps the system improving; the fund pays for the national marketing that fills your calendar.
A note on the numbers. The figures on this site are illustrative, drawn from our own operating model for a five-bay Ontario location. They show how the business works, not what any individual location will earn. Your Franchise Disclosure Document is the definitive reference, and where anything here differs from it, the FDD applies.
