Does Chuze Fitness charge a joining fee?
Chuze Fitness does not publish a national joining fee. The amount is set at club level and is the single most negotiable line on the agreement, so ask for it in writing and ask whether the current promotion waives it.
Does Chuze Fitness have an annual fee?
Yes — Chuze Fitness charges an annual fee of $59.99. As published: $59.99/year on all current memberships. It is billed once a year on top of your monthly dues, and it is the charge members most often forget, because it typically lands one to two months after you join rather than on day one.
What else can Chuze Fitness add to your bill?
Beyond dues and the annual fee, Chuze Fitness publishes this additional charge: $2.99/month credit-card processing fee; $0 when ACH waives it.
How to pay less at Chuze Fitness
Chuze publishes a military and first-responder offer that can waive startup and price MORE at $29.99. Wellness programs include Renew Active, One Pass, Prime and SilverSneakers at eligible clubs.
- Ask what the joining fee is today — promotions rotate, and a waived joining fee is the most common concession staff can authorise.
- Ask whether paying annually up front reduces the effective monthly rate.
- Check corporate, student and military eligibility before you sign, not after: most operators will not backdate a discount.
What does Chuze Fitness actually cost in the first year?
Chuze Fitness costs about $179.87 in the first year, which works out at $14.99 a month once the joining and annual charges are spread across twelve months. That is $5 a month more than the $9.99 headline rate — the gap is exactly what most people miss when they compare gyms on the advertised price alone. Treat this as a floor rather than a final number: Chuze Fitness does not publish a joining fee nationally, so your club may add one.
| Cost component | Amount |
|---|---|
| 12 months of dues | $119.88 |
| Annual / facility fee | $59.99 |
| First-year total | $179.87 |
| Calculated from the published figures above. Excludes sales tax, optional add-ons and any local promotion. Your club may differ. | |
Held at today’s published rates, three years of membership comes to about $539.61. Dues rarely stay flat that long, so treat this as a baseline for comparison rather than a forecast — how Chuze Fitness handles price increases.
Is there a Chuze Fitness free trial?
Yes — Chuze Fitness offers a free trial or day pass at participating U.S. clubs. $0 for the official 7-day trial. Use it before you commit: it is the only way to check the equipment queue and class availability at the times you would actually train.
