Phone charging stations for gyms and fitness studios.
A phone is the member’s music, timer and workout log in one. At low battery, sessions get cut short and members head home.
Where the station sits.
- Guests
Members rent a power bank on the way in and charge a phone in a locker or at the bench while they train.
- Station
Lives at reception, in view of every member who walks in.
- Venue
Members finish full sessions, and the gym earns a revenue share on every rental.
The Compact-8 covers most single-site gyms and studios. It sits on a reception desk without taking the surface a member signs in on, and a returned power bank recharges in place and goes straight back out to the next one.

“Phone dies, the music dies, they go home. The station’s tiny, sits on the front desk, so they rent a power bank on the way in.”
Gyms & fitness studios, in detail.
- Can a member take the power bank onto the gym floor?
- Yes. It is a rental rather than a charging locker, so the member keeps the power bank with them and keeps using the phone while it charges. It goes in a pocket, a locker or on the bench, and back into the station on the way out.
- Where should it go in a gym?
- At reception, in the line of sight of every member walking in. That is the one point every member passes twice, so it is seen on the way in when the battery is already low and returned on the way out.
- Does the gym pay for the station or the power banks?
- No. ZAPT owns the phone charging station and the power banks, ships them, and replaces any unit that is lost or damaged at no cost to the gym. The gym supplies a plug socket and receives a revenue share on every rental, paid quarterly against a statement.
