Interesting that you mention the credit card, I've said this a few times that being able to load up a card for access makes sense in many gyms from a punter and company pov.

List your top 8 pieces of essential kit needed in a gym? Range of barbells (Olympic, Safety Squat Bar, Cambered etc), Properly weighted plates, Squat Rack/Power Cage, Boxes for squatting/jumping, Chains, Bands, Deadlift platform

Would the idea of a top up card be of interest to you so you could pay as you train by the hour? For example a one off payment for the card then add credit to the card and swipe when entering/leaving the gym Sounds an interesting idea but might bother people who use the gym as a social thing. Could be included in a range of options so that you are different.
