When you join our community, you are stepping into a welcoming environment where you can work out comfortably without fear of judgment. Our staff and members foster a culture of support and encouragement.
From the moment you walk through our doors, you will notice the difference. We actively discourage intimidating behavior, ensuring that your gym membership provides a safe space for personal growth and physical wellness.
Free Fitness Training Included
Every gym membership, regardless of which of our plans you choose, includes access to our PE@PF program. Our certified trainers provide free, small-group fitness training sessions to help you design a customized workout plan, learn how to use the equipment safely, and stay motivated to reach your goals.
Whether you need a quick orientation on the treadmill or a comprehensive full-body routine, our trainers are here to ensure you get the absolute most out of your decision to join.
Spotlessly Clean Facilities
Your health and safety are our top priorities. We maintain rigorous cleaning protocols throughout the day, ensuring that every piece of equipment, locker room, and lounge area meets our exceptionally high standards. When you invest in our plans, you are investing in a pristine workout environment.
We also provide abundant sanitization stations featuring eco-friendly cleaning solutions, empowering our members to easily wipe down machines before and after use, maintaining a hygienic space for everyone.
State-of-the-Art Equipment
Our clubs are outfitted with hundreds of the latest, high-quality cardio and strength machines. By offering massive quantities of equipment, we ensure that you rarely have to wait to use your favorite treadmill, elliptical, or strength machine, making your workouts highly efficient.
We continually upgrade our inventory to feature the newest technology, including machines with integrated screens, tracking capabilities, and ergonomic designs that maximize your results while minimizing the risk of injury.
The Highly-Rated PF App
When you join, you gain access to the incredible Planet Fitness App. This powerful tool puts hundreds of guided workout videos, exercise tutorials, and progress tracking features right in your pocket. It is the perfect companion to your gym membership, helping you stay on track whether you are in the club or at home.
The app also features our innovative Crowd Meter, allowing you to check the real-time capacity of your local club before you even leave your house, ensuring you can plan your visit during quieter hours if you prefer.
Flexible, Affordable Plans
We pride ourselves on offering some of the most competitive rates in the fitness industry. Our plans are designed to provide maximum value without hidden fees or confusing contracts. We believe that a high-quality gym membership should not break the bank, which is why we keep our monthly dues remarkably low.
With various options including no-commitment agreements, you have the flexibility to choose a plan that perfectly aligns with your financial situation and long-term fitness aspirations.
Elevate Your Experience with the PF Black Card®
The PF Black Card® is our ultimate gym membership, designed for those who want to maximize their recovery and enjoy premium perks. Upgrading to this tier transforms your standard workout routine into a comprehensive wellness experience, offering amenities typically found only at luxury health spas.
One of the most celebrated features of the Black Card is the ability to bring a guest for free every single time you visit. Whether it's a friend, family member, or workout buddy, sharing your fitness journey has never been easier or more affordable.
Furthermore, this premium plan grants you access to our exclusive Black Card Spa area. After a rigorous workout, you can unwind in our state-of-the-art massage chairs, soothe tired muscles on the HydroMassage™ beds, or utilize our tanning and Total Body Enhancement facilities. It's not just a gym membership; it's a passport to total body wellness.

Flexible Plans with No Commitment Options
We understand that life changes, which is why we offer gym membership plans that adapt to your needs without locking you into restrictive long-term contracts.
What does "No Commitment" mean?
A "No Commitment" gym membership means you are not locked into a 12-month or 24-month contract. You pay your membership dues on a month-to-month basis and have the freedom to cancel at any time without facing exorbitant early termination fees. This flexibility is perfect for those who may be moving, traveling, or simply want to try out the club without a long-term obligation.
While we do require written notice to process a cancellation (usually by the 10th of the month to avoid being billed for the following month), the process is straightforward and transparent. We want you to stay because you love the Judgement Free Zone®, not because a contract forces you to.
How do annual fees work with these plans?
Most of our gym membership plans include a nominal annual fee, which is billed once a year. This fee is crucial as it allows us to continually invest in club maintenance, equipment upgrades, and facility renovations, ensuring that your club remains in pristine condition year-round.
The annual fee is typically billed roughly two months after you join, and the exact date is clearly outlined in your membership agreement. We pride ourselves on transparency, so you will always know exactly when and what you are being charged.
Can I upgrade or downgrade my plan later?
Absolutely! We make it incredibly easy to adjust your gym membership as your needs evolve. If you start with the Classic plan and later decide you want to access the massage chairs or bring a guest, you can seamlessly upgrade to the PF Black Card® at any time through the PF App or by speaking with our front desk staff.
Similarly, if you need to downgrade from the Black Card to the Classic plan, you can do so by visiting your home club. Our goal is to ensure you always have the right plan for your current lifestyle and budget.
Are there any hidden fees when I join?
No, we believe in complete transparency when you join our community. The costs associated with your gym membership will clearly include your monthly dues, a one-time startup fee (which is often discounted during promotions), and the annual fee. Applicable local taxes may also apply depending on your region.
We do not charge maintenance fees, towel fees, or mandatory personal training fees. Everything included in your selected tier is covered by your standard dues, so you can work out with complete peace of mind.
Can I freeze my membership instead of cancelling?
Yes, if you have a medical reason, are being deployed for military service, or face other qualifying circumstances, you can request to freeze your gym membership. Freezing your account temporarily pauses your monthly billing while keeping your enrollment status active, so you won't have to pay a startup fee when you are ready to return.
To request a freeze, simply visit the front desk of your home club. Our team will guide you through the quick process and inform you of any documentation needed and the maximum duration allowed for the freeze.
How do I actually cancel if I need to?
If you decide to cancel your gym membership, we require you to do so in writing to ensure your request is accurately processed and documented. You can cancel by visiting your home club in person and filling out a quick cancellation form, or by sending a certified letter to your home club's address.
We require cancellations to be submitted by the 10th of the month to avoid being billed for that current month. While we are always sad to see a member leave, we strive to make the process as straightforward and professional as possible.

"I was always intimidated by the idea of getting a gym membership, but the Judgement Free Zone is real! I opted for the Black Card because I travel for work, and being able to access any club in the country has been a game-changer for my routine. Plus, the HydroMassage beds are incredible after a long day."
— Sarah J., Member since 2024
"The Classic plan is exactly what I needed. For just $10 a month, I get access to more cardio equipment than I could ever use, and the facility is always spotless. It's the most affordable and high-quality gym membership I've ever had. I highly recommend anyone on the fence to just join and see for themselves."

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Plans
Get quick answers to the most common questions about how to join and manage your gym membership.
How old do I have to be to get a gym membership?
You can join Planet Fitness starting at age 13. However, members aged 13 and 14 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian when they work out. Members aged 15 to 17 can work out alone but must have a parent or guardian sign the membership agreement waiver when they initially join.
We are proud to offer a safe, welcoming environment for teens to develop healthy habits early in life, and our High School Summer Pass program often provides free access during the summer months for this age group.
Can I try the club before I decide to join?
Yes! We offer a free Day Pass for first-time visitors who want to experience the Judgement Free Zone® before committing to a gym membership. You can easily request a Day Pass through our website by selecting your local club.
During your visit, you'll have full access to our cardio and strength equipment, and our friendly staff will be happy to give you a tour of the facility and answer any questions you have about our plans.
What payment methods do you accept for monthly dues?
To ensure your gym membership remains active without interruption, we require a checking account (EFT) for your monthly dues and annual fee. By setting up an electronic funds transfer, your payments are processed automatically and securely each month.
While we require a checking account for the recurring monthly billing, you can typically use a credit or debit card to pay the initial startup fee when you first join online or at the front desk.
Does my membership automatically renew?
Yes, for your convenience, all of our gym membership plans are set to automatically renew on a month-to-month basis after your initial term (if applicable) is complete. This ensures you never lose access to the club.
If you are on a "No Commitment" plan, your membership will simply continue to bill monthly until you provide written notice of cancellation. You have full control over your account and can manage many aspects directly through the PF App.
Are there corporate or group discount plans available?
We do offer corporate wellness programs that allow businesses to subsidize or provide discounted gym memberships for their employees. If you are an employer looking to promote health and wellness within your organization, you can contact our corporate team for more details.
If you are an employee, check with your HR department to see if your company already participates in a Planet Fitness corporate partnership program before you join as an individual.
