Price and Contract Comparison
Both Snap Fitness and Jetts offer competitive pricing, with Snap Fitness starting at $14.95/week and Jetts starting at $14.95/week. However, Jetts has no joining fee, while Snap Fitness charges a $49 joining fee, although they often run promotions to waive this fee. Contract lengths also vary, with Snap Fitness offering 6-12 month contracts and Jetts having no lock-in contract.
Consider Exercise NZ's subsidy scheme, which offers 40-70% off for eligible members, making either option even more affordable.
| Gym | Price/week | Contract | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Snap Fitness | $14.95-$17.95 | 6-12 months | Small-town NZ locations |
| Jetts | $14.95-$19.95 | No lock-in | Flexibility seekers |
Facilities and Classes
Both gyms offer personal training and 24/7 access, but Jetts has fewer locations and no group classes. Snap Fitness has smaller clubs, which can feel cramped during peak hours. If you prioritize group classes or a wider range of facilities, you may want to consider other options like Les Mills or City Fitness.

Locations and Overall Value
Snap Fitness has a wider reach across New Zealand, making it a great option for those in smaller towns. However, Jetts' flexibility and no-lock-in contract make it an attractive choice for those who value freedom and affordability.
Ultimately, the best gym for you will depend on your individual needs and priorities. If you're on a tight budget and want no-contract flexibility, Jetts may be the better choice. For those who prioritize 24/7 access in smaller NZ towns, Snap Fitness is a solid option.
