An almost empty gym: Coach Potato behind the desk, ghosts on the sofa and one member who is actually working out.

Members pay. Visitors cost money. Simple.

A gym simulator. Backwards.

Every member pays. Every visit costs you money. Build the most successful gym nobody uses.

1
Get members

Every new member pays every month. That's all you ask.

2
Keep them home

A sofa by the entrance, a snack machine, a full car park. Once they sit, they stay.

Make money

The emptier the gym, the higher the profit.

Running a bad gym is harder than it looks.

Every situation gives you three choices: safe, likely or a gamble.

One room is only the beginning.

Every new room brings new members, new problems and new ways to keep them away.

He keeps showing up. Nobody knows why.

The Fanatic
The Fanatic

Motivates other members. Extremely dangerous.

And your members.

Every room attracts a different kind of member. Some pay and stay away, others actually show up.

Never skips a session. Bad for business.

There is always something better to do.

Make your gym irresistible to pull members in. Then give them somewhere better to be.

Movie night

Nobody shows up tonight.

Gaming night

One more level. Then another.

Wellness day

Recovery is a sport too.

Food festival

Leg day is cancelled.

Weekend away

Check in. Just not at the gym.

Your product doesn't appear in PhantomGym. It changes the game.

Real brands get a role in the game. Your brand always comes out well. PhantomGym doesn't.

How it works

1

Become a ghost member

Pick the sport you never show up for: gym, running, padel, yoga, hybrid racing, functional training or Reformer Pilates.

2

Don't go

Tap "I didn't go today" every day. Your trainer gives you a good reason to go with it.

3

Get rewarded

Your streak grows, you earn coins and badges, and you climb from Fresh Face to The Invisible One.

Your trainer always has an excuse

Seventy excuses, ten for every sport. A few examples.

Your gym bag is exactly where you left it three weeks ago. That's called consistency.

The official membership

Just like a real gym: you pay every month and you don't go. The difference is that we say it out loud. You get the membership card in your name, to share with everyone who thinks you work out.

€2.99 a month

The first month is free. You can cancel any month, and checking in stays free.

Ready to build a gym nobody uses?

The app opens soon. Leave your email address and you'll be the first to know. The first month of membership is free.

Almost in. Just click the button in the email we've sent you. A huge effort, we know. After that, you never have to do anything again.
Nothing there? Check your spam. Our email hides about as well as you hide from the gym.
Know someone who never goes either? Send them the page.
Signing up didn't work. Check your email address and try again.

How we handle your data.

We'll only email you about the launch of PhantomGym. You can unsubscribe at any time.

Know someone who never goes either?

At 1, 3 and 10 friends who sign up through your link, you get the Recruiter medal. When three friends become paying members, you get one month free.

Sign up yourself first, then your personal link is ready. A friend counts once they have confirmed their email address. You get the free month once, as soon as three of your friends are paying members.
