The partnership provides ClassPass users with access to open gym time at one of the fastest growing global fitness and wellness brands
New York, NY – March 4, 2026 – ClassPass, the lifestyle app that provides access to thousands of fitness and wellness experiences worldwide, today announced that users can now use credits to book gym time at UFC GYM®, the first major brand extension of UFC®, the world’s premier MMA organization.
Global fitness reservations on ClassPass increased 36% year over year in 2025, signaling sustained demand for in-person training. As more consumers prioritize their wellbeing, ClassPass is expanding its network of leading gym brands and large-scale operators to meet that demand. The addition of UFC GYM marks another step in that direction, giving members greater flexibility in how and where they train.
“We’re excited to bring UFC GYM to ClassPass because it gives our users access to state-of-the-art facilities designed to support everything from strength training and conditioning to MMA-inspired workouts,” said Kam Mack, Head of New Strategic Partnerships at ClassPass, a Playlist brand. “Last year, we saw strong momentum toward gym-based training on our platform, with global bookings for gym time up 51% year over year, according to our 2025 Look Back Report. Introducing UFC Gym to the platform allows us to meet that rising demand and provide our users with access to globally recognized brands.”
