This move is designed to alleviate financial pressure while allowing users to prioritize their health immediately.
The deal offers a “premium plus” experience for City Bank American Express (Amex) cardholders, who are entitled to:
Reduced rates on all Gold’s Gym membership packages.

This partnership is about encouraging a healthy lifestyle by removing the barriers to entry,” he remarked during the event.
Gold’s Gym Bangladesh reaffirmed its commitment to enhancing customer experience through such strategic alliances, aiming to foster a healthier nation one member at a time.
