Payments and Fees:
- Dues Payments. We collect monthly membership dues, including junior dues, and certain other payments (such as recurring payments for services or products) within the first five (5) days of each month (typically on the first business day of each month) or at an additional date designated by you for certain products or services by electronic fund transfer from the designated bank account or credit or debit card on file for your Monthly Payment Method ("Monthly Payment Method"). If we are unable to successfully draft payments from your Monthly Payment Method when due, we will continue to attempt collection thereafter, typically each Monday, Wednesday, and Friday of the subsequent week(s). EPC may use services made available by card issuers which automatically update your card information and prevent disruptions due to account changes, such as an expired or reissued card. You may opt-out of this service at any time by contacting your center. We are not responsible for overdraft fees. We do not issue regular monthly invoices. Your transaction history (including, but not limited to, recurring and non-recurring charges) may be found on eliteperformcenter.com under “View Transaction History.” To establish your membership, you must provide a Monthly Payment Method. In special circumstances, however, you may avoid a forthcoming monthly dues electronic funds transfer by providing an alternate method of payment to the center at least three (3) business days prior to the last day of the month. To change your designated dues-paying account, please see the Front Desk or visit eliteperformcenter.com. Dues, fees, costs and other charges are subject to change by EPC at any time without notice, unless otherwise required by law. In the event of a change in any amount charged, EPC may provide any notice required by law by regular mail or by email to the address(es) associated with the membership.

To deactivate club access and downgrade to the Digital Membership, 30-day advanced notice is required. - Membership Freeze.
