As of October 2026, WHOOP’s US memberships are $199 a year for One, $239 for Peak and $359 for Life, with the band included. In India the official site lists One at ₹21,990 and Peak at ₹28,990, with taxes and a 12-month term, and Life is not sold there. whoop.com could not be read directly, so check it before you pay.
The three tiers in the US
| Plan | Per year (US) | Hardware | What it adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| One | $199 | WHOOP 5.0 | Core Sleep, Strain and Recovery |
| Peak | $239 | WHOOP 5.0 | Healthspan, Pace of Aging, Health Monitor, Stress Monitor, PowerPack charger |
| Life | $359 | WHOOP MG | Everything in Peak, plus an ECG heart screener and blood pressure insights |
These figures agree across several 2026 price roundups (trackervs, Subger and others). They are third-party sources, because whoop.com returned errors when read. The feature split comes from the same sources.
Two caveats on Life. The MG’s ECG and blood pressure features are described by WHOOP as health insights, and the roundups read say the blood pressure feature is not FDA-cleared. If those features matter to you, read WHOOP’s own wording for your country.
The band is not separate
You do not buy the band and then subscribe. The hardware comes with the membership, and the common review line is that without a membership the band has no standalone value. That is why it makes sense to think of the price as a yearly cost, not as a gadget price plus a service charge.
Monthly billing
Older pages quote monthly prices of $25 (One), $30 (Peak) and $40 (Life). Sources found disagree on whether new members can choose this now: one says billing for new members is annual only, with monthly available to existing members on a 12-month commitment. Which is current could not be confirmed. If you see a monthly price, work out the annual total and compare.
What it costs in India
WHOOP’s Indian site lists the One plan at ₹21,990 and Peak at ₹28,990, both including taxes, each bundling a device with a 12-month membership. One includes a 5.0 device, a corded charger and a CoreKnit band; Peak adds a wireless power pack and a SuperKnit band. The site also mentions 3 and 6 month no-cost EMI. Life, with the MG device, is not available in India per the Peak page, and members on WHOOP’s community forum report that MG features are restricted there. Retailer listings can differ from the official page, and older articles quote 2024 launch prices that no longer apply.
What happens after the first year
A published renewal price could not be confirmed from WHOOP’s own pages. Reviews read treat the annual fee as the ongoing cost, but whether an existing member pays the same amount as a new one cannot be stated. Check the Membership tab in the app before your renewal date.
Cancelling and refunds
Engadget’s cancellation guide says the process runs through WHOOP’s web app (Membership tab). Its main points:
- On an annual plan paid upfront, you can cancel but the membership ends at the 12-month mark.
- Within the first 30 days of a new device, cancelling and returning the hardware should bring a full refund. A $110 restocking fee applies if the device is not sent back within the same week.
- WHOOP staff on the community forum describe sliding refunds for auto-renewals: possibly full within 7 days if you return the device, prorated between 31 and 90 days if no data was uploaded. That is a forum answer from staff, not published policy, so ask support.
What it costs over three years
Using the US prices above and assuming they stay the same, which is an assumption:
| Year 1 | Three years | |
|---|---|---|
| WHOOP One | $199 | $597 |
| WHOOP Peak | $239 | $717 |
| WHOOP Life | $359 | $1,077 |
| Fitbit Air, no Premium | $99.99 | $99.99 |
| Fitbit Air, with Premium at $99.99 a year | $199.98 | $399.96 (Premium kept all three years, ignoring the free three months) |
The Fitbit Air launched at $99.99 and Google says the tracker works without Premium; Premium is $9.99 a month or $99.99 a year, and every Air comes with three months included. Those figures come from launch reports in May 2026. What you get without paying is the subject of Google Health Premium vs free.
Checks before you pay
- Confirm the price for your country on WHOOP’s own site, including whether tax is shown. The US and Indian figures above are not interchangeable and do not convert directly.
- Look at which tier holds the feature you actually want. Healthspan, Pace of Aging, Health Monitor and Stress Monitor are Peak and above, so One is the plan with the fewest extras.
- Find the cancellation path and the return window before the trial starts, and put the 30-day date in your calendar.
- Ask what the renewal price will be. WHOOP’s own pages could not be read, so this cannot be said.
Is it worth it?
That depends on what you use. If you want WHOOP’s coaching, Healthspan and the ecosystem, the fee buys those. If what you want is a daily readiness-type number from a wearable you already own, you can get it elsewhere, and there is a list in WHOOP alternatives with no subscription.
One option for a Fitbit Air is Pulse, free software you host yourself, which computes its own 0-100% Recovery and a 0-21 Strain from your Google Health data (how Recovery works). It needs Docker and your own Google Cloud project and has been tested only on the Fitbit Air. See Pulse against subscription wearables for the trade-offs.
