Wyoming gym membership rules
The law: Servicemember termination or suspension of contract services (W.S. 19-11-125); no general health club act. Read the law
Who it covers: The only Wyoming rule found lets uniformed-services members with orders for more than 180 days terminate (or for 30 to 180 days suspend) gym memberships issued or renewed on or after July 1, 2018; it does not help civilian members.
- Military service: A uniformed-services member (or spouse living with them) ordered to active service or transferred for more than 180 days may terminate, or for 30 to 180 days suspend, an athletic club or gym membership issued or renewed on or after July 1, 2018, by written or electronic notice with a copy of the orders and without any penalty or fee. The termination takes effect on the date in your notice or ten days after you send it, whichever is later. Source: W.S. 19-11-125(a)-(c)

Re: Cancellation of membership
To whom it may concern:
I am writing to cancel my membership, effective immediately.
Please stop all further charges to my payment method, refund any amount paid for a period after the cancellation takes effect, and confirm the cancellation in writing, including the date it took effect.
Please keep this letter with the account records. I am keeping a copy, with proof of the date it was sent.
Sincerely,
[Member name]
Before you send (not part of the letter)
- Send it in a way you can prove: a method your contract or state law names, and keep a copy. Certified mail with a return receipt gives you a dated record.
- If charges continue after the cancellation takes effect, you can dispute them with your card issuer or bank (see the timing rules on this page).
- Complaints: Wyoming Attorney General, Consumer Protection and Antitrust Unit, https://ag.wyo.gov/law-office-division/consumer-protection-and-antitrust-unit/consumer-complaints
- This letter is a starting point you edit and send yourself. It does not cancel anything by itself, and it is not legal advice.
Wyoming gym membership cancellation law
Wyoming has no general health club act, but W.S. 19-11-125 reaches some gym contracts. The rules below come from the statute text; each links to its source, and the first line says which contracts the law covers.

Wyoming subscription and automatic renewal law
Wyoming has no general automatic renewal law.
Wyoming subscription and auto-renewal rules
We found no general Wyoming automatic renewal statute. Your contract terms, federal law for online sign-ups, and general consumer protection law apply.

Federal rules that still apply
No. The Federal Trade Commission finalized a "click to cancel" rule in 2024, but on July 8, 2025 the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit vacated it because the agency skipped a preliminary regulatory analysis the FTC Act requires (Custom Communications, Inc. v. FTC, No. 24-3137 (8th Cir. 2025)). The vacatur brought back the original 1973 rule, which covers only "prenotification" plans such as product-of-the-month clubs, not gym memberships or most subscriptions.
In March 2026 the FTC asked for public comment on a new negative option rule. An advance notice is an early step: it does not create any new obligation for businesses. (FTC press release, March 11, 2026)
Federal law still reaches subscriptions sold online. For subscriptions sold online with automatic charges, federal law (ROSCA) requires clear disclosure of the terms, the consumer's express informed consent, and simple mechanisms to stop the recurring charges. (15 U.S.C. 8403). For gym memberships signed in person, the cancellation rules come from state law and your contract.
If they keep charging you
If a business keeps charging you after a cancellation took effect, you can dispute the charge with the company that issued your card or holds your account. For a credit card, a written billing-error notice must reach the card issuer, at the address it gives for billing errors, within 60 days after it sent the first statement showing the charge. (12 CFR 1026.13(b)) For a debit card or bank transfer, an oral or written error notice must reach the bank within 60 days after it sent the statement that first shows the charge. (12 CFR 1005.11(b)(1)(i))
For automatic debits from a bank account, you can also stop future payments. You can tell your bank to stop a preauthorized electronic payment from your account, orally or in writing, at least three business days before the payment is scheduled. If you call, the bank may require written confirmation within 14 days, and an unconfirmed oral stop order then lapses. (12 CFR 1005.10(c)(1)-(2))
Your copy of the cancellation letter and your proof of the date you sent it are the evidence for a dispute. The regulations define which errors these procedures cover and the card issuer or bank investigates, so send the dispute promptly and in writing.
You can also report a business that will not let you cancel to your state attorney general (each state page lists its complaint office), to the Federal Trade Commission, or, for a problem with a card or bank dispute, to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
What this tool does not do
- It does not cancel anything for you or contact the business. You send the letter yourself.
- It cannot read your contract. A statute may exempt your club or plan (for example by price, length, or type of business), and your contract may give you more rights than the statute.
- It does not tell you whether you owe a fee, a buyout, or the rest of a contract term. Those depend on your contract and the facts.
- It covers state statutes and the main federal rules only. City rules and court decisions can add to them.
- It is legal information, not legal advice.
