If the payment is late the member will receive a reminder email from Z Fit and the access will be blocked. The membership continues to run even if the access is blocked. If after 60 days the invoice is still not paid, the Member is in violation of the contract and the total outstanding amount of the contract will be due.

As soon as the debts are paid, the access will be granted again to the clubs.

If the Member has given approval for an automatic debit from his account or card, the cancellation must be announced minimum 2 weeks before the next debit.
