New App Allows Fitness Buffs to Buy Day Passes to Any Gym
Denver, CO (PRWEB) November 26, 2013 -- GymPoints has launched its new website and mobile app to make it possible for people to go to the gym – or gyms – of their choice without signing up for memberships while also attracting new and potentially long-term customers to gyms.
There are many different reasons why people want to part of a gym, including motivation, support, and social interaction as well as access to classes, coaching, and state-of-the-art equipment. While most people know of the benefits of going to the gym and working out and want to take advantage of what a gym offers, there are often barriers preventing people from signing up. These include long term commitment, monthly dues, location, availability of hours and more.
GymPoints breaks down these barriers by enabling consumers to access gyms where they want and when they want. With easy access on their mobile devices consumers can pay for gym access as they need it, effectively eliminating the barriers previously in place that prevented them from accessing gyms.
The new GymPoints app helps to ensure these concerns will no longer hold people back from reaching their fitness goals. The GymPoints website and mobile app promises to make gym access easier and less expensive for gym customers while delivering more paying clients and new revenue to Partner Gyms.
In addition to the amount of flexibility it provides in being able to visit the gym of their choice, customers are also drawn to GymPoints for its ease of use. Using the GymPoints mobile app, checking into a gym is as fast and simple as swiping the QR code when you get there. GymPoints is quickly earning a reputation as the preferred solution in Gym day passes for fitness-minded people on the go, by providing an easy-to-use, pay-as-you-go alternative to gym memberships and contracts and is ideal for
Here’s how it works for customers:
1. Download the GymPoints app on your smartphone, tablet, or other mobile device.
2. Buy GymPoints points, which can be used at any participating gym in the country.
3. Find a Gym, and see amenities, photos, hours and get directions
4. Use the GymPoints app on your smartphone or tablet to check in at any member gym for the day – much like a gym day pass.
Regular GymPoints users save a minimum of 10 percent and often more over regular gym day pass rates. The convenience of using the mobile GymPoints app on a smartphone or tablet to research, locate, check-in and pay at participating gyms is fast and simple and will encourage rapid growth of users.
GymPoints offers a major upside for gym owners as well. Becoming a GymPoints partner will give gyms access to a much larger client base and will help gyms attract new members. According to GymPoints President and Co-Founder Aaron Trockman, about 53 million people currently belong to and work out at commercial gyms – but there is an untapped customer base of more than 200 million people.
He says, "GymPoints markets and sells day passes to the 80 percent of potential customers out there through our sophisticated, simple mobile app and our website...then the customers come to you."
Here’s how it works for gym owners and managers:
1. Sign up as a GymPoints partner for 30 days, risk free.
2. Receive your GymPoints provided iPad and mobile app.
3. Use the iPad and app to check in GymPoints customers.
4. Get paid.
It’s really that simple.

Meanwhile, business owners and franchisees will attract new gym members, improve their gym marketing, and grow their gym revenue.
