Cooling off period
Our memberships have a seven day cooling off period, during which time you can cancel and a full refund will be provided by us.
Cancelling your membership:
After the cooling off period, you may cancel your Direct Debit agreement with us with 28 days written notice to the specific 98 gym location you train at. Like many contracts, cancelling a gym membership may mean paying a fee, and paying out the remainder of your 28 days. If you cancel your membership and your membership has a minimum term, you will be required to pay an early termination fee of 50% of the remaining amount of your term.
Suspending your membership:
You may temporarily suspend your membership for any reason for a minimum of 1 week and a maximum of 4 weeks, a maximum of 2 times per year provided all fees payable by you are up to date. You must give us at least 2 weeks’ notice in writing to the 98 gym location you train at. We may agree to suspend your
Membership for longer periods / more often for travel, medical or hardship reasons but you must provide us
with any supporting documents we request.
Late fee/ No show
At 98, we want to make an effort to ensure everyone has a fair opportunity to train. To make sure we can accommodate everyone who wants to take classes, we have introduced late cancel and no show reservation policies for our members. We want to help ensure that those booked into classes actually attend, and those who need to drop out do so in a timely manner.
Now you made a reservation for a class but something comes up and you can’t make it. What should you do?
We get it, things come up, you don’t feel well, and your kids are sick; life happens. Cancel your reservation IMMEDIATELY by using the 98 Gym App or via HAPANA online.
If you need assistance on understanding HOW to cancel a class, please let the manager help and show you. We are here to help and want you to feel as comfortable with the app and the cancellation process.
Please cancel reservations up to two hours of a class’s starting time so that someone else can experience the class you’ll be missing. If you fail to cancel a reservation and/or don’t make it to class, you may be charged a $10.00 “no show/late cancellation” fee*. (If there should be a sudden emergency within the two hour window, please contact your 98 Gym location directly.) Any reasonable exemptions in writing to the 98 gym specific location email will be taken into consideration by the manager to waive the fee.
