These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the GymBud platform, including any websites, mobile applications, software, and related services (collectively, the “Platform”).
The Platform is operated by Onboarding Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“GymBud,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
By accessing or using the Platform, you agree to be legally bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Platform.

GymBud does not permit use by minors under any circumstances.
2. Overview of the Platform
GymBud is a technology marketplace and software platform that enables:
- Individuals (“Clients”) to discover, purchase, and participate in fitness training services
- Independent fitness professionals (“Coaches”) to offer fitness services, manage clients, deliver training programs, and receive payments
GymBud is not a fitness provider, medical provider, or training authority.
GymBud does not provide fitness instruction, personal training, medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
3. No Medical or Health Advice
The Platform does not provide medical advice.
All workouts, programs, recommendations, messages, metrics, analytics, or other content available through GymBud are provided for informational and educational purposes only.
You acknowledge and agree that:
- Fitness training involves inherent risks, including injury or death
- You should consult a licensed medical professional before beginning any exercise program
- You are solely responsible for determining whether any activity is appropriate for your health and physical condition
4. Role of GymBud
GymBud acts solely as a neutral technology platform.
GymBud:
- Does not verify Coach credentials, certifications, licenses, or experience
- Does not supervise or control fitness services
- Is not a party to any agreement between Clients and Coaches
- Does not guarantee safety, results, outcomes, or satisfaction
All fitness services offered through the Platform are provided entirely by Coaches, not by GymBud.
5. Coach Status – Independent Contractors
All Coaches operate as independent contractors, not employees, agents, partners, or representatives of GymBud.
Each Coach is solely responsible for:
- Truthful representation of qualifications and credentials
- Compliance with all applicable laws and regulations
- Safety and suitability of training programs
- Client communications, refunds, cancellations, and disputes
- Payment of all applicable taxes on earnings
GymBud does not employ, insure, supervise, or control Coaches.
6. Client Responsibilities & Assumption of Risk
By using the Platform, Clients acknowledge and agree that:
- Participation in fitness training carries inherent risks
- GymBud is not responsible for injuries, damages, or losses
- You must stop any activity that causes pain, dizziness, or injury
- You are solely responsible for selecting and evaluating Coaches
All fitness activities are undertaken at your own risk.
7. Marketplace Relationship
Any agreement for fitness services exists exclusively between the Client and the Coach.
GymBud:
- Does not set service terms
- Does not enforce service agreements
- Does not guarantee availability, responsiveness, or quality
- Is not responsible for disputes between Clients and Coaches
GymBud may, at its discretion, facilitate communication but assumes no liability for outcomes.
8. Payments — Stripe Connect & Asaas
GymBud uses Stripe Connect (international Coaches) and Asaas (Brazilian Coaches) to facilitate payments. Neither GymBud nor its affiliates is a financial or payment institution.
You acknowledge and agree that:
- Coaches are the merchant of record for the fitness services they provide
- Payments are processed by Stripe Payments, Inc. or, for Brazilian Coaches and Clients, by ASAAS GESTÃO FINANCEIRA S.A. — never by GymBud
- GymBud does not hold or control client funds
- Refunds, chargebacks, disputes, failed payments, and tax obligations are the responsibility of the Coach, the relevant payment institution (Stripe or Asaas), or the Client's financial institution
GymBud bears no financial liability for transactions.
8a. Brazilian Payment Services — Asaas Gestão Financeira S.A.
The clause below is mandated by ASAAS GESTÃO FINANCEIRA S.A. and applies to all Coaches and Clients whose payments are processed through the Asaas BaaS infrastructure (typically Brazilian Coaches and their Clients):

GymBud acts solely as a technology integrator and distributor of the product experience, and is not a financial or payment institution and does not engage in financial intermediation on its own behalf. The client acknowledges that the financial/payment relationship and the regulatory responsibility for the services described above belong to ASAAS GESTÃO FINANCEIRA S.A., in accordance with applicable regulation.
