At Jack in the Box, we understand people have cravings throughout the day. Do you want breakfast for dinner? Do it. Are you craving our mouthwatering burgers and shakes at 8am? Who's stopping you? We offer every menu item all-day, every day. Your customers will thank you.
Since 1951, we've grown to be one of the nation's largest burger franchises with more than 2,100 restaurants in 21 states. We brought the drive-through to life by pioneering two-way intercom system still used QSR franchises today. In 2021, we relaunched our franchise program to allow new franchisees to join the Jack in the Box system. We're looking for new franchisees to grow our footprint and bring our craveable menu to new markets like yours across the country.
At Jack in the Box, we've seen the popularity of drive-throughs and mobile ordering skyrocket. Our new 1,350 sqft prototype was designed with that in mind. With dual drive-throughs for higher volume and a walk-up window for mobile orders, you'll be prepared for today's consumer!
Whether this is your first jump in franchising or we're an addition to your existing multi-unit restaurant portfolio, Jack in the Box has support tailored to your needs.

After 70+ years in the burger franchise space, you can rest assured we have all the systems you need to succeed.
Due to the cost of opening a restaurant with Jack in the Box, we have three minimum financial requirements all potential franchisees must meet.
Minimum Liquidity: $750,000
Minimum Net Worth: $1,500,000
Franchise Fee: $50k per Location
If you’re unable to meet these requirements, there are many potential sources of liquidity that may be overlooked. For example:
Business Partners
Local Banks & Credit Unions
Stocks & Bonds
Home Equity
401k Rollovers
These are just a few of the options you may like to consider in order to meet our financial requirements.
The estimated initial investment for a Jack in the Box Franchise is $1,909,500 to $4,041,500 excluding land, financing, and certain other costs. We provide a breakdown of this number in our Item 7 found in our Franchise Disclosure Document.
Like most franchises, you’ll notice Jack in the Box has ongoing royalty fees.
5% Royalty of Gross Sales
5% Marketing Fee of Gross Sales
These royalties ensure you have the best possible resources to run your business and bring customers to your location.
The Jack in the Box incentive is available to multi-unit franchisees who choose to sign up for three or more stores under our Development Incentive Program.
If you open the Restaurant on or before the required date in the development schedule, we will loan you $150,000 at 0% interest to be used solely for development costs associated with that restaurant. The loan will be repaid by crediting 100% of the royalty payments for that restaurant otherwise due until the loan is paid in full (i.e., payments will be made by crediting the appropriate portion of royalty payments toward the principal balance outstanding). If the particular restaurant is sold or permanently closed and the loan has not been fully repaid, the remaining principal balance is due in full.
If you close a restaurant and then open a replacement restaurant, it will not be eligible for this incentive. The Company may discontinue or modify this Development Incentive Program at any time.
More details about this program can be found in our Franchise Disclosure Document. Need a copy of our FDD? Please reach out to our team here.
We offer an incentive to certain franchisees who have signed a Multi-Unit Development Agreement pursuant to which they have committed to open at least three (3) Restaurants in a ”Select Market.” For the purposes hereof, a “Select Market” is one in which food or other operating costs for franchisees are higher than average costs for other franchisees, due to supply chain conditions, as determined from time to time by us in our sole discretion. If we, in our sole discretion, determine that any Restaurants opened pursuant to such Multi-Unit Development Agreement qualify for this incentive, your Royalty for each qualifying Restaurant (which is currently 5% of Gross Sales) will be reduced to 2% of Gross Sales for the first five years after the subject qualifying Restaurant opens.
