About Planet Fitness Subscriptions

Planet Fitness memberships ($10/mo Classic or $25/mo Black Card) must be cancelled in person at your home club or by certified mail. You cannot cancel online or by phone. This guide covers every platform — In Person (Home Club), Certified Mail — so you can cancel from whichever device you have handy.

Before You Cancel Planet Fitness

Before cancelling, check a few things: which platform you subscribed on (App Store, Google Play, or the website directly), since you must cancel in the same place you signed up. If you subscribed on the website, cancelling through your iPhone Settings won't work — and vice versa.

Also note your next billing date. Planet Fitness doesn't delete your account when you cancel — you keep access until the period ends. There's no penalty for cancelling early, but you won't get a refund for unused days unless stated in the refund policy above.

Can I Resubscribe After Cancelling?

Yes — you can resubscribe to Planet Fitness at any time. Your account data, preferences, and history are typically preserved for 30–90 days after cancellation, depending on the service. Simply log back in and choose a new plan.

What If I Can't Find the Cancel Button?

Some services intentionally bury the cancel option. Follow the exact steps above — if you still can't find it, check that you're logged into the correct account (some people have multiple accounts). You can also contact Planet Fitness support directly and request cancellation via chat or email — they are legally required to process it.
