Wellness Club Finder offers one protected verified top-billing slot per category and area nationally. If your club does not want the slot, the same intro-pass program can be offered to another qualified club nearby. Users still get fit-based matches; top billing is labeled, disclosed, and can be overridden by a specific user request.
Only one protected verified top-billing slot is available per area and training category.
Category-area top billingIf the best-fit club passes, Club Finder can move the slot to another qualified local option.
Competitor consequenceThe user still receives the best-fit recommendation from the questionnaire or specific request.
Consumer-first matchingPublic listing only; no full consumer contact details.
Terms accepted and payment method on file; receives intros when user fit or specific requests point there.
One disclosed top-billing slot per city/category, with user-fit override and payment-method gate.
Used after review for poor reporting, unpaid invoices, repeated disputes, or bad user outcomes.
Attribution, non-circumvention, dispute rules, and consent handling are accepted before full lead release.
Programs, schedule, budget, beginner fit, and service area shape the automated matching logic.
Qualified intro-pass details are released only after the partner gate is satisfied.
Visit feedback and partner confirmation create commission drafts for verified new members.
This is the ethical scarcity mechanism: the slot is limited and visible, but the directory and questionnaire can still evaluate every qualified club in the area.
Long Beach is the first active proof market. 10th Planet Long Beach gets the disclosed focused partner path, while competitor visibility remains available for user-fit comparison.
Austin is the first proof market for the national protected top-billing program. If the current partner declines renewal, the slot can be offered to another local academy.
Dallas is open for one protected verified top-billing slot. Wellness Club Finder can approach every qualified academy or club, but only one partner receives the category-area protected partner position.
Los Angeles has one protected verified top-billing slot in the national index. The partner receives eligible automated handoff first, while users still see fit-based matches.
Chicago is open for one protected verified top-billing slot. If one academy passes, the offer can move to the next best-fit competitor in the area.
The real choice is whether your gym owns the verified intro path in the area or lets another academy become the default partner when motivated people search for a place to train.
