DO YOU HAVE QUESTIONS? WE HAVE ANSWERS!

COVID-19 (Coronavirus): What initiatives have Éconofitness implemented for members following the temporary closure of the gyms?

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO MEMBERS

Following the announcement this week from the Prime Minister of Quebec, we are under the obligation to remain closed until May 1st 2020.

As mentioned in our email from March 15th, we told you via a communiqué to all that we would push back the expiry date of your contract for the period of time the gyms were closed which was intended to be 15 days. At the present time, this period is estimated at 7 weeks. Please note once more that we will continue offering the option to push back the end of your membership.

Of course, during these additional weeks after the end of your current membership, we will not take any payments. You will therefor not lose any time or monetary value off your membership and no action will be required of you.

GOOD NEWS!

For those who choose to continue their usual contract payments, and in doing so support us in maintaining the minimal operational requirements to ensure the future reopening of our gyms, we offer 1 FREE month added to your membership on top of the additional weeks already added equivalent to the period of time the gyms were closed as mentioned above.

OPTION TO STOP YOUR PAYMENTS

We fully understand however that the financial situation of some of our members has changed in the last couple of weeks.

If in fact your financial situation is affected and you are no longer able to continue your payments, we invite you to visit the following link to find out about the different options available to you: https://info.econofitness.ca/en-ca/memberships-processing

We would like to remind you that you have access to many home training alternatives. Visit your Member's Login to find out more.

We hope that we will continue to see you all active, no matter how you do so, and want to thank you for your understanding. We will continue to communicate information on the status of Éconofitness regularly via email or on our website.

The Direction

What is the difference between WEEKEND membership and ECONO membership?

The WEEKEND membership gives you access to your local gym from Thursday to Sunday (4 days, see the opening hours of the gym) while the ECONO membership gives you access to your local at all times (7 days a week, see opening hours of the gym).

What does the "freeze your rate" option do for me?

By adding $1.15 plus taxes on your bi-weekly subscriptions, your membership fee will remain the same as long as you are a member and keep the same membership plan. This option is only available when subscribing.

Can I really share my key card with my friends?

Yes! An amazing privilege for our Platinum and Extra members is that they can share their keytags with friends for free. In order to share their card, members must ensure that their friends are 15 years of age and older. Only one person (member or guest) will be admitted at the gym at a time.
