Members will now have access to an extensive network of 7,500+ gyms and studios, along with a suite of in-app features, including fitness content, personalized diet plans, and an AI-powered fitness coach.
While FITPASS has firmly established its presence in major metropolitan areas like Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad along with Tier 2 & Tier 3 cities including Amritsar, Guwahati, Bhopal, Lucknow, Surat, Coimbatore and many more. Simultaneously, it plans to embark on an ambitious journey into Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities, including Nagpur, Nashik, Mysore, Trivandrum, Rohtak, Meerut and more. The overarching goal of this expansion strategy is to consistently target at least three new cities every quarter across India, with the aim of inspiring millions of Indians to embark on or enhance their fitness journeys.
FITPASS champions the belief that fitness should not be constrained by one’s lifestyle, but should be a part of it. With its innovative membership model, it provides unparalleled access to a wide range of fitness centers, offering over 2,25,000 workout options such as gym, yoga, Zumba, Pilates, swimming, Crossfit, and more.

Commenting further on the expansion, Akshay Verma, Co-founder of FITPASS, emphasized, “In 2015, FITPASS made its debut with the goal of democratizing fitness in India through tech-driven accessibility. By dispelling the notion of fitness as a luxury, we established it as an accessible and convenient option. We undertook a transformative initiative by challenging and reshaping the conventional annual subscription model, breaking it down into more flexible components such as monthly and quarterly plans. This groundbreaking strategy garnered continuous engagement from our partners, leading to strong and ongoing partnerships. Additionally, we also recognized the significance of employee well-being and its direct impact on an organization’s overall success. In line with this, we introduced our employee wellness program this year, which has already gained traction with over 5,00,000 employees across various organizations.”

With a growing network of fitness centers, FITPASS members can enjoy unparalleled flexibility and convenience, enabling them to stay active and maintain a healthy lifestyle across India.
