# MyGymDesk × Razorpay: Get Your Gym's Official Payment Gateway in Minutes
We have some big news for every gym, fitness studio and wellness centre running on MyGymDesk — and for those still evaluating us.
MyGymDesk is now an official Razorpay Technology Partner.
That one line changes how Indian gyms get paid. Here's what it means, why it matters, and how you can start collecting online payments today.
What Does "Official Razorpay Technology Partner" Mean?
Razorpay — the payment gateway trusted by over 80 lakh Indian businesses — certifies select software platforms as Technology Partners. As a certified partner, MyGymDesk can now set up and operate an official Razorpay payment gateway for your gym, directly from your MyGymDesk dashboard.
No separate developer. No API keys to copy-paste. No juggling two dashboards to get started.
You click Connect Razorpay, authorise securely on Razorpay's own page, and your gym is ready to collect online payments — with every rupee settling directly into your gym's own bank account.
**Important:** the Razorpay account is *yours*. MyGymDesk never touches, holds, or routes your money. Funds flow from your member's UPI app or card straight to your Razorpay account, and then to your bank — exactly like any direct Razorpay merchant.
The Old Way vs. The MyGymDesk Way
| | The old way | With MyGymDesk × Razorpay |
|---|---|---|
| Setup | Sign up on Razorpay separately, generate API keys, paste them into software, hope nothing breaks | One click from your MyGymDesk dashboard, secure authorisation, done |
| Technical skill needed | Comfort with API keys and webhooks | None — if you can tap a button, you're live |
| Where money goes | Your account (if configured correctly) | Your account, always — verified at connection |
| Maintenance | Keys expire, webhooks misconfigure, payments silently fail | Managed by the platform integration end-to-end |
For years, the number one reason small and mid-size gyms didn't collect online was simple: payment gateway setup felt like a developer's job. As an official Technology Partner, we've removed that job entirely.
One Gateway. Collect Everywhere.
Connecting Razorpay once switches on online collection across every payment surface in MyGymDesk:
🔗 1. Payment Links
Create a bill, tap Payment Link, and send it on WhatsApp. Your member pays with UPI, card or netbanking — the bill settles automatically, the invoice generates, and the receipt reaches them without you lifting a finger. Perfect for renewals, dues and one-off charges.
📱 2. Member App Renewals
Your members renew and upgrade themselves from the MyGymDesk member app — no front-desk queue, no "I'll pay tomorrow." The membership activates the instant the payment captures, and it reflects on your dashboard, reports and even biometric access automatically.
🛒 3. Member Shop
Sell supplements, merchandise, and gear online through your in-app Member Shop. Paid orders land straight in your dashboard with stock updated — a new revenue line most gyms leave on the table.
🌐 4. Your Gym Website
New members discover you online, sign up, book paid trials, and purchase services on your own gym website — 24×7, with zero staff effort. Every self-serve signup arrives in MyGymDesk as a paying member, not a lead you have to chase.
One connection. Four revenue channels. Zero double-entry.
Limited Period Offer: Zero Platform Fees for 90 Days*
There's never been a better time to switch on online payments. Razorpay is currently running a limited-period offer: zero platform fees for your first 90 days on eligible new signups.
Combine that with a setup that takes minutes instead of weeks, and the usual excuses for staying cash-only are officially retired.
\Offer by Razorpay for eligible new signups; Razorpay terms and conditions apply. Standard payment processing charges as per your Razorpay plan.*
Is It Secure?
More secure than the old way, in fact:

Frequently Asked Questions
Does MyGymDesk hold my money?
No. Payments settle from Razorpay directly to your gym's bank account. MyGymDesk never holds, touches, or routes your funds.
Do I need a Razorpay account already?
No. If you have one, connect it in one click. If you don't, you'll create one during the connect flow and complete Razorpay's standard KYC.
What can my members pay with?
Everything Razorpay supports — UPI, credit/debit cards, netbanking and more than 100 payment methods.
What does it cost?
The integration is part of your MyGymDesk plan (included on Pro & Enterprise; available to Starter & Growth via the Payment Gateway & UPI add-on). Razorpay's standard payment processing charges apply per transaction — and right now, eligible new Razorpay signups get zero platform fees for 90 days*.
I already use my own Razorpay keys in MyGymDesk. Should I switch?
Yes — the partner connection is the recommended path going forward: simpler, more secure (no key handling), and fully managed. Reach out to support and we'll switch you over with zero downtime.
Is this available for gyms outside India?
Razorpay serves Indian businesses. International gyms on MyGymDesk continue to use our Stripe and PayPal integrations.
The Bigger Picture
Every month, Indian gyms lose real revenue to the friction of collecting: members who "forgot," renewals that slipped a week, walk-ins who left because the card machine was down. Online collection isn't a luxury feature anymore — it's the difference between chasing payments and receiving them.
As an official Razorpay Technology Partner, MyGymDesk now removes the last barrier between your gym and modern payments.
Connect Razorpay today. Collect everywhere. Money in *your* bank.
