An Act relative to the cancellation of gym memberships
This bill amends Massachusetts law to require health club sellers to provide a cancellation option on their websites if they allow customers to purchase or modify gym contracts online. The rule specifically applies to businesses that let users buy additional services, programs, or benefits, or remove existing ones through their digital platforms. By mandating an online cancellation method, the legislation ensures that consumers can easily terminate their agreements without needing to visit a physical location. This change directly affects gym operators who manage memberships via their websites and the members who use those sites to manage their accounts.
