Memberships your members actually keep
Your members already pay monthly — they get the model. Add a branded wallet pass that handles check-in, perks, and add-ons, so renewals are higher and the front desk is quieter.

Why gyms use PerkClub
The problems that hurt margins most — solved.
Recurring revenue, done properly
Stripe collects monthly, every month, and pays out weekly. No more chasing failed direct debits or printing membership cards that end up in a drawer.
Check-in from a wallet pass
Members scan their phone at the door — no fobs to replace, no plastic cards to reprint. The pass updates itself when they upgrade or pause.
Fewer cancellations
Independent gyms on PerkClub see strong renewals because the pass keeps perks and progress front of mind — not buried in an app nobody opens.
Upsell PT and add-ons
Tier your plans: bolt on a class pack, a monthly PT session, or guest passes. Members pick the level that suits them and your average revenue climbs.
Common questions for gyms
The specifics that matter for your trade.
Can I set a minimum term or a rolling monthly membership?
Both work. Run rolling monthly plans that members can cancel from their dashboard, or offer a discounted commitment tier. PerkClub handles the billing either way.
What happens when a member pauses over the summer?
Members pause and resume from their own dashboard, so you keep the relationship without manual admin. Their pass reactivates the moment billing resumes.
Does this replace my access-control system?
No — keep your turnstiles or door system. PerkClub handles membership, billing, and perks; staff can scan a member's pass at the desk to confirm a live membership in seconds.
