It mandates that fitness clubs provide clear and conspicuous cancellation notices, allowing buyers to cancel within five business days without penalty. Clubs must also offer multiple methods for consumers to submit cancellation notices. The bill requires clubs to register with the Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation and maintain bonds to protect consumers in case of club closures. It prohibits contracts from including non-assertion clauses or requiring promissory notes.
