Payment Options

The Legacy YMCA offers 4 methods of payment described below. Only one form of payment per membership is allowed.

Monthly Dues Payment

Checking Bank Draft

Credit Card Draft
By using a monthly automatic draft, payment will be electronically deducted from your checking or credit card account on an ongoing, monthly basis on the 1st or 15th. This automated method of payment may also be used to make retail and other service purchases in the branch. When you join online your membership will be drafted by credit card. When you visit the branch for orientation and to pick up your cards, if you prefer check draft you can make the change at that time. Those electing a checking account draft will be asked to complete the required bank draft authorization form and provide a voided check.
** In the on-line enrollment process, if quarterly or semi-annual billing is selected, this will occur for one cycle after which time monthly drafts will begin.

Annual Full Payment and Bonus Month
You may pay your annual membership dues for the entire year using cash, check or credit card. Membership activated online must be paid for with a credit card. When you pay 12 months dues in full you receive a 13th month free. (The membership will be adjusted after joining by the business office to include the free month)

Company Payroll Deduction
You will need to visit the branch to receive information on our established corporate relationships and receive any related join fee discounts or payroll deduct options.

Financial Responsibility

After the initial 30-day period any membership resignation shall be effective thirty (30) days after receipt of written notification and payment of all sums which have become due and payable up to resignation. The joining fee is non-refundable. Any discrepancies regarding member cancellation must be reported to the Central Business Office within 60 days of the member’s original written request to cancel. Discrepancies outside of that date will not be the responsibility of the YMCA and are not subject to a refund. Billing and account inquiries should be directed to the Legacy YMCA Business Office, 1501 4th Avenue S.W. Bessemer, Alabama, 205-426-1211, tgalvez@legacyymca.org
