How to refer a friend and earn a free session
Share your referral link or code. When your friend joins with it and the gym marks their first session complete, you get 1 free session credit.
2 min readUpdated November 3, 2026
You can invite friends to your gym with your own referral link or code. When a friend signs up with it and finishes their first session, you earn 1 free session credit. The reward is added when your gym marks your friend's first session as complete, so it can take a little while after the session.
Warning: A friend who signs up without your code can result in no referral being recorded, and the code can't be added afterwards by you. Always send your full link, which fills the code in for them.
Before you begin#
- Make sure your friend wants to train at the same gym. Referrals only count within one gym.
- Your friend needs to create a new account. Existing members can't be referred.
On the web#
- Select Refer a friend in the portal menu.
- Copy Your link, or share Your referral code.
- Send it to your friend.
- Check Your referrals to see their progress.
In the Levflex app#
- Go to Account and tap Refer a friend, or tap it on the Home tab.
- Tap Share invite to send your code and link, or tap Copy to copy the code.
- Check Your referrals to see who joined.
Referral statuses#
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Waiting on first session (web) or Invited / Joined (app) | Your friend signed up but hasn't completed a session yet |
| Free session earned (web) or Completed (app) | The gym marked their first session complete, and 1 credit was added to your balance |
Common mistakes#
Expecting the credit when your friend books#
The reward comes after your friend's first session is completed, not when they book or buy. Your gym marks sessions complete, sometimes later the same day.
Referring someone who already has an account#
Referrals only work for new accounts at the gym. If your friend already signed up, the code can't be linked.
Sharing a code from another gym#
Your code only works at the gym it came from. If you train at two gyms, each has its own code.
Troubleshooting#
- Does your friend appear in Your referrals?
- YesWait until their first session is marked complete. If it's been more than a week, ask your gym.
- NoThey may have signed up without your code. Ask your gym, which can check.
- Yes
- Did you get a notification but no credit?
- YesRefresh your balance on Payments or Wallet. See How session credits work.
- NoYour balance is up to date.

Your free session is a regular credit, so you can book any open time with it.
