Submit the material you actually intend to use
FRED is the franchise filing system of the North American Securities Administrators Association. Identify the actual message, channel, sponsor and first-use date for the stated submission.
If a landing page changes after a PDF was submitted, compare the actual change and version with the submitted material before publication. A screenshot/version record is an optional business control, not a new legal filing category or a finding that every edit requires a new filing.
This page does not classify every website, message or conversation as a franchise advertisement. That decision depends on the actual communication; a format alone does not settle it. Registration, exemptions and buyer disclosure remain separate.
Scope
- Limited to the agency’s stated advertising submission rule. Classification of a particular communication and other pre-sale duties are not determined.
Next step
Check whether the communication is covered and submit the actual intended advertising version on the required timetable.
