How to cancel Planet Fitness

Last reviewed About 2–5 minutes

Planet Fitness membership cancellation is generally handled in person at your home club or by sending a written cancellation request. Some locations now also offer online cancellation through the member portal — availability varies by location and home club. The process depends on your specific membership contract and home club.

Before canceling, review the membership agreement you signed, which outlines the required cancellation method and any applicable fees or notice periods. To avoid being charged for the next month, cancel by the 10th of the current month. To avoid the annual fee (~$49), cancel by the 25th of the month before the annual-fee billing date.

Steps

  1. Review your membership agreement

    Locate the original membership contract you signed when joining. It specifies the cancellation method, any required notice period, and whether an annual fee applies.

  2. Check whether your home club offers online cancellation

    Log in to the Planet Fitness member portal at planetfitness.com or open the PF app. Some locations now allow cancellation directly through the member portal — if that option is available for your home club, you can complete the process there without visiting in person.

  3. Visit your home club or send a certified letter

    If online cancellation is not available for your location, cancel in person at your home club by speaking with a staff member at the front desk, or send a signed cancellation letter via certified mail to your home club's address. Include your name, address, and membership details.

  4. Request written confirmation

    Ask for a cancellation confirmation — either in writing at the club, by mail/email, or via the member portal — so you have proof the request was received.

  5. Verify the final charge

    Check your bank or credit card statement on the next billing date to confirm no further charges were made.

Things to know

  • Online cancellation through the member portal is available at some locations but not all — check planetfitness.com or the PF app to see if your home club supports it.
  • To avoid a charge for the next month, cancel by the 10th of the current month. To avoid the annual fee (~$49), cancel by the 25th of the month before the annual-fee billing date.
  • Planet Fitness does not accept cancellation by phone or email — in-person, certified mail, and (where available) the online member portal are the accepted methods.
