  • It includes payroll for one employee but does not include any compensation that you elect to pay yourself, or any royalties that you would pay Mathnasium.

  • Mathnasium does not finance any portion of your initial investment for your first Mathnasium center, but it may offer financing for a portion of your initial franchise fee if you are purchasing an additional franchise or are employed as a Center Director at a Mathnasium center and meet Mathnasium’s eligibility requirements stated in the Manuals.
