QUESTIONS?
We have answers.
Is this the cheapest way to join a gym?
For standard pricing, yes! Our program offers 40-70% off standard gym pricing. These discounts aren’t available anywhere else.
Are there any hidden costs?
No. The price you see is the price you pay. If any of the gyms have additional fees like access cards, this will be informed before payment.
I haven’t exercised in years. Will I be able to keep up?
Absolutely! Many of the gyms in our network are beginner-friendly and offer classes or equipment suited for all fitness levels.
I feel uncomfortable going to a gym. What if I don’t fit in?
You’re not alone—many people feel this way before they start. The great thing about our program is that it connects you with gyms known for their supportive, welcoming environments.
What happens if I don’t know what to do at the gym?
Many gyms offer staff guidance, introductory sessions, or beginner-friendly classes to help you get started.
I don’t want to commit to something long-term. What are my options?
Membership lengths vary by gym, and many offer short-term options so you can try it out first (e.g. 3 month membership).
I own a business—can I offer these memberships to my employees?
Yes! Many businesses encourage staff well-being through subsidised memberships. Simply make these purchases on behalf of your staff, or promote this offering directly to them.
Can I pay off the membership over time or in instalments?
No, all subsidised memberships must be paid in full at the time of purchase. This ensures the discounted rate is applied and confirmed immediately.
Can I buy a membership for someone else?
Yes! You can purchase a membership as a gift—just make sure the recipient meets the eligibility criteria.
Can I use this membership at any gym?
No, each membership is linked to a specific gym. Be sure to select the gym you want when purchasing, and check the listing for details.
What if my preferred gym isn’t listed?
New gyms are added as they join us. Check back soon or reach out to us below—we may be able to help you find a similar option nearby.
Is this a government programme?
No, this programme is run by Exercise New Zealand with support from gyms nationwide to help more people get active.
