About

Wall Pass App

Features
Read full description

Wall Pass is a day pass for climbing gyms. One balance, good at every gym in the network. If you climb at more than one gym, or you travel, or you don't get to the wall often enough to justify a membership, paying the walk-in rate every time adds up. Wall Pass gets you a lower price at participating gyms without tying you to any one of them. HOW IT WORKS 1. Add credit to your balance. 2. Open the app when you get to the gym and check in. 3. Tell the front desk you are on Wall Pass. Your balance covers the visit at the Wall Pass rate, which is less than that gym's normal walk-in day pass. No membership, no punch card, nothing to cancel. IN THE APP Every participating gym on a map, sorted by how close it is to you. Hours, day pass pricing and amenities for each gym, so you know what you are walking into. Your balance, and what a visit costs at that gym, before you commit to it. Rental gear. Add shoes, chalk, a harness or a belay device when you check in. A running total of what you have saved against walk-in prices. Monthly rewards. Climb at a few different gyms in the same month and your next visit is on us. Gifting. Send a visit to someone else on Wall Pass. WORTH KNOWING Wall Pass works at participating gyms only, so check the map before you count on it. Credit pays for admission at real gyms and buys nothing inside the app. Questions: support@getwallpass.com
