You cannot cancel an Orangetheory membership online.

You must cancel in person or via certified mail with your studio.

Advisory: Cancel Where You Subscribed

You can only stop billing on the platform you originally paid on. If you subscribed inside an app, cancelling on the website won't stop the charge — and vice versa. Watch out for retention “dark patterns” too: keep going until you see a clear “Cancellation Confirmed” screen and a confirmation email.

Refunds

How to Get a Orangetheory Fitness Refund If You Were Already Charged

Orangetheory does not offer refunds for memberships.

If you fail to give 30 days' notice, you cannot get a refund for your final month. The only exception is if you cancel within a "cooling-off" period (usually 3 days after signing the initial contract) as mandated by local laws.

Charged for something you forgot?

Renew Reminder warns you up to 14 days before your next renewal — so you never have to chase a refund again.

You are entitled to continue booking and attending classes until the end of that final paid billing cycle.

Pre-Cancellation Review

Before You Cancel — Things to Consider

  • 30 Days' Notice. Orangetheory strictly enforces a 30-day written notice policy for cancellations. This means you will almost certainly be billed for one final month after you submit your cancellation request.
  • In-person is best. Because studios are independently owned franchises, policies vary. However, almost all studios require you to sign a physical form in person. If you moved away, you usually have to send a certified letter.
  • Check your contract. Some studios allow email cancellations, while others strictly prohibit them. Review the agreement you signed when you joined, or call the front desk to confirm their local policy.
  • Freezing vs. Cancelling. If you are injured or travelling, you can often "freeze" your membership for up to 60 days instead of cancelling. Freezing usually carries a small administrative fee (e.g., $15/month).
