How does fitness reimbursement work?

In most cases you simply file a claim with copies of your receipts, and you're reimbursed for eligible fitness expenses. While your employer may not require them for reimbursement, it's always a good idea to keep receipts for any eligible out-of-pocket expenses you pay.

Can you get money back from gym membership?

The only way in which you would likely be able to claim back any money from the gym is if there had been a breach of contract of some kind.
