Common Questions

Can I use other Planet Fitness locations?

No. This agreement covers the Porter Square location only.

I already pay for a Planet Fitness membership. What do I do?

Contact the Porter Square location and ask to move your billing to the Lesley agreement. Do this whether you have a Classic or a Black Card membership. Student athletes who are paying out of pocket should do the same, since the membership should be free for them.

Who do I ask about my athlete eligibility?

Contact the Athletics Department.

Who do I ask about anything else?

For general questions, contact the Support Hub by submitting a ticket or emailing help@lesley.edu. For questions regarding accepted payment methods, membership benefits, cancellations, refunds, and terms & conditions, contact Planet Fitness.
