Abstract
Implementations of a membership system for allowing users to access multiple unaffiliated gyms and paying the participating gyms are provided. In some implementations, for a plurality of users, selections of a plurality of gyms are received from each user. For each user, a fee for a time-period to be paid by the user based on the gyms selected is calculated and the fee is received from the user. A unique code is assigned to each user. When a user visits a gym that the user selected, the unique code of the user and an identification of the gym visited is received and stored. For each user and each gym selected by the user, a payment to each gym selected by the user is calculated and paid based on the percentage of time the user visited the gym during the time period.
