Wellhub

Wellhub brings fitness, mindfulness, nutrition and sleep services together in an employer-sponsored membership. It is best for companies that want wellness benefits alongside HR tools, and employees who value a choice of digital services and in-person fitness. Its range is a strength; the employer-based access model is the main barrier.

Overview

Employees choose among 10 membership plans, with options spanning wellbeing apps and a network of gyms, studios and virtual personal trainers. For employers, memberships are paired with HR features and integrations. This makes Wellhub a broader workplace benefit than a standalone fitness membership, but it is not a direct sign-up for individuals: access is through an employer or participating provider.

Key features

The network includes 110,000+ gyms and studios, 3,800 virtual personal trainers and 90+ premium wellbeing apps across its regions. Employees can switch or pause plans, and subscriptions have no enrollment or cancellation fees. That flexibility is useful when needs change, while the range of plans still requires employees to weigh monthly cost against the options they will actually use.

Wellbeing assessments, coaching and mental health resources extend the offer beyond exercise. Wellhub Challenges award points for activities such as tracking steps, visiting a gym or booking a class; they are free for Wellhub clients and employees. For employers, HR tools include ROI analytics, ready-to-use campaigns and wellness challenges. REST API, SFTP and SSO integrations support eligibility, payroll, flexible benefits, reporting and sign-up workflows. Payroll integration is limited to companies with at least 100 employees.

Company memberships use an annual contract paid monthly, with corporate fees based on the company arrangement. Wellhub describes dedicated specialists, tailored engagement strategies and ongoing support for company clients. It states that it holds PCI-DSS and ISO 27001 certifications and complies with applicable data privacy regulations in its operating regions.

Pricing

Wellhub is a paid service with a free plan. Employee plan prices are shown per month, but access requires an employer or participating provider. The Digital plan costs nothing and includes 10 wellness apps, with no gyms or studios nearby. It is the lowest-cost route for eligible employees seeking app access, but excludes in-person fitness.

Starter costs $11.99 a month for 46 wellness apps; Starter+ is $26.99 a month for 52; Basic is $37.99 a month for 60; and Bronze is $64.99 a month for 61. These lower tiers offer progressively more apps, but each is described as having no gyms or studios nearby. They suit employees focused on digital wellness better than those choosing Wellhub for local gym access.

Silver costs $109.99 a month for 62 wellness apps, Titanium $159.99 a month for 62, Gold $214.99 a month for 62, Platinum $289.99 a month for 62, and Diamond $344.99 a month for 62. The published app count does not rise above Silver, so employees should weigh the higher prices against the in-person options they can use rather than paying more for app quantity alone. The plans are labeled as starting prices, and the employee’s location and eligible offerings matter. Company pricing is custom pricing based on an annual contract paid monthly.

Platforms

Wellhub supports web and API access, and offers mobile apps and single sign-on. Employees can use gyms and studios while travelling in 13+ countries; digital offerings are available in 85+ additional countries. Access therefore has broad geographic reach, though the specific local network remains relevant to anyone prioritizing in-person facilities.

Who it's for

Wellhub is a strong fit for employers seeking a wellness benefit that combines employee memberships, engagement tools and HR integrations. It is most useful where employees want several kinds of wellbeing support and the company can make use of the campaigns, analytics or supported workflows. The 100-employee minimum for payroll integration makes that particular connection unsuitable for smaller companies.

For employees, it suits people who can join through an eligible organization and want to choose between app-based wellbeing and in-person fitness. It is not the right route for someone who needs an individual subscription without an employer or participating provider.

Pros and cons

• Pros: A wide network of gyms, studios, trainers and wellbeing apps gives employees multiple ways to use the benefit.
• Pros: Employees can switch or pause plans without enrollment or cancellation fees, and challenges are free for clients and employees.
• Pros: Employer-facing analytics, campaigns and integrations can connect the membership to HR workflows.
• Cons: Employees cannot join independently; access depends on an employer or participating provider.
• Cons: Payroll integration requires a company with 100 or more employees.
• Cons: The listed app totals plateau at 62 from Silver upward, while the monthly starting prices continue to rise substantially.

Verdict

Choose Wellhub if your company wants a flexible employee wellness membership paired with HR tools, and its workforce can use the available digital or in-person network. Its broad choice and adjustable plans are the main reasons to select it. Look elsewhere if employees need to enroll independently, or if your company is below the payroll-integration threshold and that connection is essential.
