Our take

Employees are demanding more of their workplaces, and fitness is one of the areas they think employers can do better. Wellhub, formerly Gympass saw this opportunity and offers corporate customers a benefit that will excite their employees - allowing them to try new sports such as yoga, pilates, spinning, and martial arts across a variety of locations.

Wellhub is able to offer top-of-the-line gyms and wellness plans or programs that would be otherwise unavailable to the employees at prices that are far below market rate. They have been able to succeed at this by focusing on strategic gym partnerships, and creating an ecosystem that can satisfy any type of customer.

Backed by several rounds of significant funding, the company doubled down on strategic acquisitions to ease its entrance into new markets and has been steadily expanding its teams and offerings to bring the company closer to global market domination. A recent collaboration with Apple Fitness+, which sees the app added to Wellhub's suite of fitness services, shows that the company is mindful of what modern employees want from their benefits packages.
