Pricing questions
How gains.fyi compares gym costs
What does No-BS Monthly mean?
No-BS Monthly is gains.fyi's estimate of the true monthly cost for 12 active months of gym use after normalizing billing cadence and folding in required fees or stopping friction.
Why can the advertised price be different from No-BS Monthly?
The advertised price is the public source price before adjustments. No-BS Monthly can differ when a gym bills biweekly or every four weeks, adds required annual or signup fees, or requires paid notice after the comparison period.
How are required fees counted?
Required fees include non-optional first-year membership charges such as signup, initiation, enrollment, annual, maintenance, card, key, or always-due fees when they are listed in the public record.
How does cancellation notice affect the cost to leave?
If public terms require paid notice or contract payments beyond 12 active months, gains.fyi counts that extra paid time or listed cancellation charge as cost-to-leave friction.
