07/14 PF CLUB FEES $49.00

What this variant means

The Planet Fitness club fees line.

PLANET FIT CLUB FEES is a Planet Fitness charge — the ~$49 'annual fee' that lands once a year on top of monthly dues surprises people every single billing cycle, and cancellation famously requires effort.

Why it shows up like this

Planet Fitness bills monthly dues plus a separate annual fee (charged on a set month, not your anniversary). Memberships historically required in-club or certified-letter cancellation, so dues keep billing for ex-members — a top source of gym-charge disputes.

Don’t recognize it? You might still

  • The annual fee is separate from monthly dues and lands unannounced.
  • Membership continues billing after you stopped attending — attendance isn't cancellation.
  • A teen's membership may bill a parent's card.

What to do, in order

  1. Identify dues vs. annual fee ~$10–25 monthly = dues; ~$49 once a year = the annual fee. Both are contractual.
  2. Cancel by the book Cancel in-club or per your state's required method; online cancellation has been expanding due to FTC 'click-to-cancel' pressure. Get written confirmation.
  3. Mind the cutoff dates Cancelling close to a billing date usually still incurs that cycle — check the membership agreement's notice period.
