The current investment is the fifth in an early-stage company by Shooting Star, which was set up in March 2016. The fund invests in partnership with consulting firm Franchise India in emerging sports academies, re hab, sports injury and health apps, among other sectors.
FITPASS Co-Founder Akshay Verma said the fresh capital will be used to expand the network of gyms and fitness studios that are part of FITPASS to 10 cities in the next six months.
“We have already partnered with 400 centres in Bengaluru and will also launch in Mumbai and Pune soon. We have also seen good traction on the nutrition app and counsellor side while our gym ERP has a 93% conversion rate for the centres we work with. It usually takes a centre two months to turn into a paying customer for the FITPASS ERP,” said Verma.
The platform has about 11,000 active paying members per month and has partnered with 1,250 centres in Delhi-NCR.
