Don’t be taken in by the marketing. 

Mega gym franchises like Fitness First spend big bucks on carefully selling you a glitzy, glamorous lifestyle, full of toned abs and youthful dewy skin - a life that could also be yours, if you’d only sign up for a triple-digit membership fee each month (which you could save on with the right credit card).

But the truth is, getting - and staying - fit is more a matter of how consistent and disciplined you are, and less whether your gym has the appropriate mood lighting for your IG selfies.

So if you truly want to get fit, strong and healthy for the sake of your well-being, and not to gather more social media likes than your frenemy, know that you don’t have to pay through the nose for a gym membership

The 24/7 Powerhouses: Anytime Fitness vs. 24/7 Fitness

If you need flexibility for late-night or early-morning workouts, these two are the industry leaders.

Gym Est. Monthly Fee (2026) Membership Terms
Anytime Fitness S$105 – S$125 12 to 18-month contracts. Global access.
24/7 Fitness S$90 – S$110 1 to 12-month options. Per-entry available.
  • Anytime Fitness: Still the most convenient due to sheer volume of outlets. Most branches have upgraded to biometric entry and offer "global roaming" (use your key fob at any outlet worldwide).

  • 24/7 Fitness: A favorite for powerlifters and heavy lifters. They remain more transparent with pricing and offer per-entry rates (S$10 – S$15) for those who don't want a commitment.

  • Virgin Active: * Monthly Fee: S$220 – S$265.

    • Updates: In 2026, they have heavily integrated "recovery tech" into their memberships, including compression boots and oxygen therapy.

Tips to Save on Gym Memberships

 

  1. Check Your Insurance: In 2026, many health insurance providers (like AIA Vitality or Prudential) offer up to 20-30% discounts on gym memberships if you hit your daily step goals.

  2. Corporate Discounts: Always ask if your company has a corporate rate. Many CBD gyms offer S$20–S$30 off monthly fees for employees of major firms.

  3. The "Off-Peak" Hack: Some gyms (like Ark Fitness or certain Gymboxx outlets) offer cheaper rates if you agree to only visit before 5:00 PM on weekdays.

  4. Credit Card Rewards: Use cards like the UOB Evol or OCBC Frank to get cashback on your monthly gym recurring billings.
