Gym & Fitness Studio Credit Card Processing & Merchant Services

Personal trainers, fitness studios, yoga studios and gym owners demand reliable and straightforward payment processing solutions.

Your fitness merchant services should offer quick and easy payment options so your members can get their exercise without payment hassles and your business can collect, organize, and accept payments in a simple, streamlined process.

Whether you're an independent personal trainer who offers only one-on-one training or one that runs group trainings, bootcamps, or online fitness training sessions online, it is important to understand the value of having a reliable and secure payment processing system.

Working with a payment processing company that offers you the ability (and flexibility) for online, automated recurring payments allows you to spend less time chasing payments and more time training and helping clients meet their fitness goals.

Collecting payments manually may work fine at first, but as your business grows, your operations should scale accordingly. We've found that automated payment and mobile pay options help to eliminate financial headaches and increase revenue for gym owners and fitness centers.

With EMS services, gym owners can:

  • Reduce late payments
  • Cut back on missed membership dues
  • Get funds quickly
  • Track finances efficiently
  • Eliminate the hassle of manual collections

And with EMS, you can remain confident regarding payment security knowing you're working with a Level 1 PCI Compliant Service Provider.

Your members, customers, and clients want to feel confident about spending money at your establishment.
