Overview

This gym membership cost calculator helps you estimate what a membership may really cost over time. Enter the monthly fee, any signup fee, annual charges, expected contract length and optional monthly extras to see the total cost, average monthly cost and estimated cost per visit.

How it works

The calculator adds your base monthly fee and any recurring monthly extras, multiplies that by the number of months, then adds your signup fee and a prorated share of any annual fee. It also estimates your cost per visit by dividing the total membership cost by your expected total number of visits over the same period.
