Read at Athletech News ↗What Planet Fitness gets by sponsoring a Cadoo game
Not a logo on a landing page: a UGC engine. Players verify workouts on camera; Cadoo mints skinned clips and cards they actually share.
Skinned workout clips
Every verified set can produce a shareable video with your brand skin on the athlete. Players post proof: you get authentic UGC without a production shoot.
Branded completion cards
First-set and win moments mint cards with your name and colors. Feed-native, screenshot-ready, built for Stories and group chats.
Players as distributors
Friends commit and sweat together. Each share carries your brand into their network: marketing that moves because someone actually did the work.
Measurable engagement
CadooVision-verified reps (and health-synced movement where used) mean real activity, not vanity check-ins. Consistency you can point to.
Private, renewing arcade games
Link-gated series that self-renew. Control the shelf, keep the brand story live, cycle games as pitches land.
The flywheel: loyal → repeat → new
The client who would have lapsed keeps training under your name between visits (loyal). Her winnings come back as in-app brand credit for skins and brand shelf offers (repeat: in-store redeem not active yet). Her skinned clips hit the group chat and Instagram with a one-tap invite: friends join the game, then come with her to try you in person (new). The retention tool is the acquisition channel.
Talk sponsorship: tim@cadoo.io
Planet Fitness shareables: clips & cards
Real output from the game: skinned workout videos and completion cards players share. This is the UGC brands sponsor.

Fitness Games for Studios & Gyms
You own the hour she is in the room and lose the six days she is not. Lapse, not cancellation, is what quietly kills LTV: you never lost her heart, you lost her calendar.
Stay her coach between visits
Verified home workouts under your name on the days she cannot get in: the relationship survives work, kids and travel.
No entry stake, earned not bought
A front-desk QR opens your branded game. No purchase, no points card: she earns the reward in sweat, and every rep is proof.
The reward walks her back in
What she earns becomes credit with you, and the clip in her group chat brings a friend whose first visit happens at her side.
Reps are counted on camera; steps come from Apple Health or Health Connect. Privacy · Terms
What Planet Fitness get
Planet Fitness keep the name in the workout: less churn, more retention, growth from the people who already train, and no brand decay into a merch drop.
- Retention. Clients drift after the intro pack. The game keeps them on the calendar between visits.
- Churn. The back door closes when a live streak and a weekly goal with friends give a reason to stay every week.
- Growth. Skinned clips land in the group chat and bring friends who were not members. The skin is on the clip. The people who train become the marketers.
- Brand decay. When the name lives only in a drop, it fades. Verified workouts keep it in the work. Rewards spend on skins in the app. In-store redemption is not live.
