# Cancel Planet Fitness membership by mail (letter template)

A customizable written cancellation request for Planet Fitness, with reminders to verify the current agreement, method, address, notice period, signature requirements, and any required form.

## Feature list
- Customizable cancellation request template
- Generate a printable PDF online
- Certified Mail available
- Address validation


## When to use this guide
Use this guide when your current membership agreement accepts a mailed written cancellation request, or when you want a record of the request. Verify the accepted method, address, notice period, signature requirements, and any required form before mailing.

## Where to send your cancellation letter
Planet Fitness says members can end a membership by sending written notification by mail to the **home club**, visiting the home club in person, or logging into the online member portal when available. Policies and procedures may vary by location based on state and local guidelines.

Planet Fitness also says cancellation notice must be received by the club by the **10th of the month** to stop monthly billing on the 17th, and by the **25th of the month before the annual fee date** to stop the annual fee. If your membership has a minimum term and you end it early, Planet Fitness says a buyout fee may apply.

If you cancel by mail, use the home club address listed in your account or membership agreement, keep a copy of your letter, and save proof of mailing or delivery.

Membership ID: [Membership ID] (if applicable)

Please stop future recurring billing after the effective cancellation date, except for any final amount lawfully due under the agreement, and provide an itemized explanation of any final charge.

If the agreement requires another form, method, or step, please notify me promptly in writing at the address listed above. I request written confirmation of the effective cancellation date and the date recurring billing will stop.

Sincerely,

## How to mail a gym cancellation letter
1. Confirm the cancellation method and notice period in your membership agreement.
2. Address the letter to the correct location (often your home club or a cancellation department).
3. Sign the letter and keep a copy.
4. Mail it early enough to meet any billing cutoff dates.
5. Save tracking and delivery confirmation if you need proof.

## Tracking and proof of delivery
USPS Certified Mail can document carrier acceptance and delivery or attempted-delivery events. PostalForm can mail your cancellation request with tracking options, but those records do not prove the gym accepted or completed the cancellation. Obtain written confirmation from the gym.

## Common mistakes
- Using the wrong mailing address
- Forgetting to sign the letter
- Not including your membership ID when available
- Mailing too close to your next billing date

## FAQs
- **Can I cancel Planet Fitness online?** It depends on your membership agreement and state. If online cancellation is available, it is usually accessible through your account. If you cancel by mail, keep a copy of your letter and any proof of delivery.
- **Do I have to mail the letter to my home club?** Many gyms require cancellation at your home club or a specific cancellation address listed in your agreement. Use the address your gym provides for cancellations.
- **Should I use Certified Mail?** Certified Mail can document carrier acceptance and delivery or attempted-delivery events. It does not prove that the gym accepted or completed the cancellation.
