Wellhub (formerly Gympass): what it is and how it works for a wellness studio

Updated on July 10, 20264 min read

Wellhub is the corporate wellness platform formerly known as Gympass: it connects employees at partner companies with a network of gyms, studios, and health apps, and pays each business for the visits or access it grants. For a studio, it works as an additional acquisition channel that doesn't replace direct memberships — it complements them with traffic that arrives already subsidized by an employer.

What exactly is Wellhub?

Wellhub is a corporate wellness aggregator: companies contract a plan, and their employees pay a reduced monthly fee (partly subsidized by the employer) to access a network of thousands of gyms, boutique studios, and mental health, nutrition, and sleep apps in one place.

The business doesn't bill the end user directly per visit — it invoices Wellhub based on the access model it configured (per check-in, per class booking, or a combination), and Wellhub pays the studio on a recurring basis.

How does Wellhub work for a wellness studio?

The studio signs up for Wellhub's network and defines which classes, time slots, or services are available to platform members — many businesses reserve a set capacity for Wellhub and keep the rest for direct sales, so they don't fill peak slots entirely with lower relative-margin traffic.

A Wellhub member books or checks in at the studio through the Wellhub app or a digital credential; the studio validates access, and that visit is logged for payment purposes on Wellhub's side.

When does it make sense for a studio to join Wellhub?

It makes the most sense once a studio's direct-sales operation is already stable and it's looking to fill low-demand slots or build brand volume in a new area — not as a substitute for its own membership strategy.

It makes less sense once capacity is already saturated during the highest-value slots — adding aggregator traffic there can displace clients who would pay full price without needing that channel.

  • Open capacity in slots that currently generate no revenue
  • Need for visibility with new corporate audiences
  • An operation mature enough to absorb the extra check-in validation without friction

How does Wellhub work alongside Ollynk?

Wellhub is a native Ollynk integration, available on every plan: check-in and visit tracking for Wellhub members happen inside the studio's same booking system, with no separate logbook or extra front-desk device required.

That means an occupancy report for a class includes both clients who paid directly and those who arrived via Wellhub, and staff validate access from the same screen they use for any other booking.

In Ollynk, Wellhub and TotalPass are configured as additional access sources inside the same calendar — no separate check-in system required.

Frequently asked questions

Does Wellhub pay the end client directly or the studio?

It pays the studio, based on the access model it configured (check-in or booking) — not the client. The end user only pays their monthly fee to Wellhub, and the studio receives payment for logged visits directly from the platform.

Can a studio limit how many time slots it offers through Wellhub?

Yes — most businesses configure which classes and time slots are available to Wellhub members, keeping peak-demand slots for direct sales and using the channel to fill otherwise idle capacity.

Do I need a separate system to validate Wellhub check-ins?

Not if you use Ollynk: the Wellhub integration lives inside the same booking and check-in system the studio already uses for direct clients, so no additional app or front-desk screen is needed.
