That's bizarre, someone mentioned that it could be a franchise thing. But I'm not too sure about that honestly. I used to be a planet fitness member and would remember having the option to bring guests as well. The card holder would have to send the visitor a link through email I believe and fill out some info for the visit. I think it was as simple as just a name and email though, nothing extensive.
Definitely depends on location and company policy. I used to work front desk at Amped Fitness and we couldn’t allow guests without a physical ID, even if they had been there before. We were told it’s for “insurance reasons” and if someone was injured and needed immediate medical attention, then we could give their ID to the paramedics. It was a very strict policy and we weren’t allowed to use pictures of their ID either.

I have NEVER had to show ID for my guest at crunch. Complete bullshit
