Gym ID cards are a valuable way to keep members and facilities safe and active, and help to keep business booming.

Most gyms with ID cards use them mainly for access control - to let only members use a gym's pricy equipment and specialized services. Members show or swipe their ID card as they enter the facility, and their identity is verified. This may seem simple, but it is the most effective way of keeping non-members out. Membership cards, if conveniently located on a key tag or in a badge holder, can also motivate members to go to the gym more and invite more of their friends to join the gym with them - a great way to boost business.

Gym ID cards can be simple or complex - it all depends on the individual needs of the gym and its members. Some gyms choose to simply issue single-sided ID cards and verify the identity based on the photos, while other use electronic access control systems with encoded cards.
