At Workout 24/7, the joining fee is a one-time charge that covers your key: $49 for a single membership and $68 for a couple or family membership, the same at the Wells and Osakis gyms. If you lose your key, a replacement costs $20.
This article covers what the fee pays for, what you will spend to get started, how to pay, and what to do if your key goes missing.
What does the joining fee at Workout 24/7 cover?
The joining fee at Workout 24/7 covers your key, which is what lets you into the gym in Wells or Osakis at any hour. It is charged when you sign up, and it is not built into your monthly rate.
Both Workout 24/7 gyms are 24-hour keycard gyms. There are no staffed hours, no classes, and no personal training, so nobody is sitting at a front desk to let you in. You come in when it suits you, whether that is 5 a.m. before work or late at night after the kids are in bed, and the key is how you get through the door.
When you sign up, the paperwork gets set up and you are handed your key during the same visit. That is what the joining fee pays for.
Other gyms sometimes call this an enrollment, initiation, or processing fee, and it is not always clear what it pays for. At Workout 24/7 the answer is the key. The fee is posted on each town page next to the monthly rate and the replacement key charge, so there are no surprise charges.
If you have not used a gym like this before, the article on what to expect at a keycard gym with no staff walks through how it works day to day.
How much is the joining fee in Wells and Osakis?
The Workout 24/7 joining fee is $49 for a single membership and $68 for a couple or family membership, and it is the same in Wells and Osakis.
- Single: $49 joining fee, $39.95 a month
- Couple or 2-person: $68 joining fee, $74.95 a month
- Family: $68 joining fee, $99.95 a month
The monthly rate is the same whether you choose a 3, 6, or 12-month term, so a longer term does not change the monthly price. You can see the full rate table for each gym on the Wells gym page and the Osakis gym page.
Both gyms have the same equipment: free weights, benches, and racks; strength machines and cable stations; treadmills, bikes, and ellipticals; open floor for stretching and warm-ups; and restrooms. Your key works for the gym you join at, in the town you pick.
What happens if you lose your gym key?
If you lose your key at Workout 24/7, a replacement key costs $20 at either the Wells or Osakis gym. That is the whole charge.
What to do if your key goes missing
Call the Workout 24/7 gym where you are a member, let them know the key is lost, and arrange a replacement for the $20 fee. Because neither gym has staffed hours, a phone call is the way to reach someone about it.
- Wells: 149 S Broadway, Wells, MN 56097, (507) 553-3211
- Osakis: 815 1st Ave E NE, Osakis, MN 56360, (507) 993-8249
If the problem is equipment rather than a key, the same plain approach applies. The Workout 24/7 maintenance policy is short: if something breaks, tell them and it gets fixed.
How do you pay the joining fee and monthly rate?
At Workout 24/7, you can pay the joining fee and key with cash or check, and the monthly rate is paid by automatic monthly withdrawal from a checking account or a card.
There is no online signup yet. To join, call or stop in at your town's gym and the paperwork gets handled there. Bring shoes, a water bottle, a towel, and your ID, and you can leave with your key the same visit. The steps are laid out on the how to join page.
The membership is a signed agreement for a 3, 6, or 12-month term, and it runs to the end of that term. When it is up, you can renew or stop. If something changes partway through, call the gym. A freeze or a transfer is usually possible, and Workout 24/7 would rather work it out with you than have you disappear.
What does it cost to get started at Workout 24/7, all in?
Getting started at Workout 24/7 costs the joining fee plus your monthly rate for the term you choose. Here is what each term adds up to at either gym, using the posted prices before any military discount.

- 3 months: $49 + 3 × $39.95 = $168.85
- 6 months: $49 + 6 × $39.95 = $288.70

These totals do not include a replacement key, which only comes up if a key is lost.

Active duty, National Guard, and veterans get 10% off the monthly rate at both Workout 24/7 gyms. Bring your ID the first time and the discount stays on your monthly rate, so your term total will come in under the numbers above.
