## 4 ways to cancel your Planet Fitness membership

Planet Fitness lists 3 ways to cancel. Texting zuzu is a 4th: zuzu does the online route for you.

- Text zuzu: send 2 texts, and zuzu does the online steps for you. Less than 1 minute of your time.
- Online: in your member account on planetfitness.com, 10 steps and 2 min 13 s. You need your login.
- In person: at your home club.
- By mail: a letter mailed to your home club.

## Can you cancel Planet Fitness online?

Yes, you can cancel your Planet Fitness membership online, whether you call it your gym membership, your account or your subscription. On planetfitness.com, open My Account and log into your account, click Manage on your membership, then Cancel.

The recorded cancellation on Nov 2, 2026 took 10 steps and 2 min 13 s. Planet Fitness also lets you cancel in person at your home club or with a letter to your home club. Planet Fitness says some policies vary by location because of state and local rules, so ask your home club if anything here looks different for you.

Before you start, have your Planet Fitness login and your phone ready. When you sign in, Planet Fitness may text a login code to your phone. The cancel form opens in a new browser tab, so if a page seems stuck, check your other tabs before you try again.

Timing matters more than speed. Cancel at least 7 days before your billing date to stop the next monthly charge, and at least 7 days before your annual fee date to skip the $49 annual fee. If you cancel later, that payment still goes through. Either way, you keep access to the club until your end date.

The part people miss is the last click. Planet Fitness makes two offers to keep you, a freeze and a rate lock. Clicking No thanks, I still want to cancel on the rate lock only closes the pop-up, and you're canceled only after the second Cancel membership click. After that, your account shows Cancel Scheduled until your end date, which is normal.

## Planet Fitness cancellation policy 2026: what to know before you cancel

- $49 annual fee: cancel at least 7 days before your annual fee date to skip it. The date is in the member portal and on your membership agreement.
- 7 days before billing: cancel at least 7 days before your billing date to stop the next monthly charge.
- $58 buyout fee: only for memberships with a minimum term that you end early. No Commitment memberships can be canceled at any time without a fee.
- 2 offers to stay: say no to the freeze and the rate lock. You're canceled after the second Cancel membership click.

## Is it hard to cancel Planet Fitness?

No, once you know where the catch is. What makes it feel hard is the extra screens: the cancel form opens in new tabs, and Planet Fitness makes two offers to keep you before the final Cancel membership click. If you can't sign in, you can still cancel in person at your home club or by letter.

## After you cancel your Planet Fitness membership

- You keep access until your end date. In the recording, the membership was canceled on Nov 2 and access ran until Nov 16, the day before the next billing date.
- Your account shows Cancel Scheduled until your end date. That's normal.
- The website has no undo button. Contact your home club to keep your membership.

Keep your screenshots of the review page, which shows your end date, and of the confirmation page until that date has passed. After it, check your bank or card statement once to make sure no new monthly charge shows up. If one does, those screenshots are what you show Planet Fitness or your bank.

## Do you have to cancel Planet Fitness in person?

No. Planet Fitness also lets you cancel online or with a letter. If you'd rather go in, go to your home club and ask the front desk to end your membership. Planet Fitness's customer service FAQ names your home club for this, even if your PF Black Card lets you work out at other locations. Ask for a written confirmation that shows your end date, and keep it until that date has passed. If the desk can't print one, ask for it by email or write down the name of the person you spoke to and the date.

## How to cancel Planet Fitness by mail with a cancellation letter

Planet Fitness accepts a written request mailed to your home club. Its FAQ doesn't say what the letter must include. Mail it early, because the 7-day cutoff before your billing date still applies, and keep a copy and your mailing receipt.

> [Date]
>
> [Your name], [Your address], [Your phone number], [Your membership number]
>
> Please end my Planet Fitness membership and confirm my end date in writing.
>
> [Your signature]

## Can you cancel Planet Fitness over the phone?

Planet Fitness doesn't list the phone as a way to cancel. Its customer service FAQ lists three ways: the member portal online, your home club in person, or a letter mailed to your home club. Email isn't on the list either. For billing or membership questions, the FAQ says to contact your home club first. If your home club is closed, the FAQ points you to Planet Fitness's member services department, which is open Monday to Friday, 9 am to 6 pm Eastern; the FAQ doesn't give a phone number for it. If you call anyway, ask for your end date in writing, and don't count on a call alone to stop the next charge.

## How to cancel a Planet Fitness Black Card membership

The recording on this page is a PF Black Card cancellation, so the 10 steps above are the Black Card steps. Your plan name shows under Membership details in the member portal, with Manage next to it. Click Manage, then Cancel under More options, and follow the steps. You're canceled only after the second Cancel membership click.

## Planet Fitness cancellation fee and annual fee

- Buyout fee, $58: only if your membership has a minimum term and you end it before the term is over.
- Annual fee, $49: charged once a year. Cancel at least 7 days before your annual fee date to skip it.
- Monthly charge, your plan's rate: cancel at least 7 days before your billing date to stop the next one. Classic starts at $15 and PF Black Card at $24.99 a month, and prices vary by location.

Timeline: today, cancel any time before the cutoff. 7 days before billing is the last day to cancel and stop the next charge. Then comes the billing date and the next charge. Both dates are in the member portal and on your membership agreement. Planet Fitness says prices and some policies vary by location.

## Can you cancel Planet Fitness in the app?

Planet Fitness doesn't list the PF App as a way to cancel. Use planetfitness.com in your phone's browser, or text zuzu. The app does show your billing details under My Billing Info & Balance.
