Equinox Home Club Change & Membership Transfer 2026

Can you change the home club or transfer an Equinox membership?

A home-club change or membership transfer may be possible, but it is not the same as using another club under multi-location access. The selected U.S. club page, member account and signed agreement control the final procedure. Ask whether the account itself will move, whether only access changes, and whether a new agreement or price applies. Equinox adds a brand-specific constraint: high monthly dues and access restrictions by plan.

The current access position is Access is tied to the purchased club group; one-club plans do not automatically include every Equinox. A plan that already includes eligible multi-club access may remove the need for a formal transfer.

First compare the existing Equinox multi-club access.
