Payments for gyms & fitness studios

Recurring memberships mean card on file and rebilling on a schedule. A small percentage padding repeats every month, on every member. We set you up clean and show you exactly what you pay.

The math of a recurring membership

When you bill every member every month, a small percentage on top of the real cost isn’t a one-time hit. It repeats on each rebill, across your whole roster, month after month. By the end of the year that padding has multiplied into a real number. The fix is a clean, transparent setup, not a flashy headline rate.

Failed and declined cards, plus downgrades to higher fee tiers, quietly cost you on the rebills you never think about. We set up clean recurring billing, work to reduce those declines, and show you the real rate you pay.

Your real rate: the equation and the gap Total fees divided by total card volume gives the effective rate, shown as $1,500 divided by $50,000 equals 3.0 percent, with two bars underneath where the effective rate stands taller than the rate you were quoted and the difference is bracketed as downgrades and junk fees. YOUR REAL RATE Total fees divided by total card volume. Two numbers from your statement, one honest answer. TOTAL FEES $1,500 everything you paid last month ÷ CARD VOLUME $50,000 everything you ran on cards = EFFECTIVE RATE 3.0% your real rate what you actually pay on every dollar, once every fee is counted the headline number The rate you were quoted QUOTED RATE DOWNGRADES + JUNK FEES 3.0% Your effective rate THE GAP Downgrades and junk fees The quoted rate only applied to some of your transactions. The rest, plus the monthly fees, is the gap. The advertised rate is what they want you to look at. The effective rate is what you actually pay.

Common questions

Does AllProPay handle recurring membership billing?
Yes. We set up clean recurring billing and card on file so your memberships rebill on schedule, and so the totals stay clear on your statement.
We rebill every member every month. Does that matter for fees?
Yes. On recurring memberships any small percentage padding repeats every month on every member, so a clean rate makes a real difference over a year. We also work to reduce declined and downgraded cards that quietly cost you.
