Important: Qualitop & QualiCert Certification
What is it?
Qualitop and QualiCert are the quality standards for fitness centers in Switzerland. Most health insurers (such as Helsana, Swica, CSS) require that your gym has one of these quality seals so they can contribute to the costs.
What do I need to watch out for?
Before you take out a membership, ask your fitness studio if it is "Qualitop-certified". Without this certification, many insurers won't pay a cent, even if you have the right supplementary insurance.
All gyms on our homepage are Qualitop or QualiCert certified. Find gym now →
Tip: Large chains like Activ Fitness, PureGym or Kieser Training are usually always certified. For smaller studios, it's worth asking.
