Frequently Asked Questions

What is KCFit.net?

We track YOUR steps to make KC Fit!

KCFit.net is the broadest set of health and wellness resources right here in the KC Metro area. We want to encourage Kansas Citians to get out and get active by putting all of the resources to do so right here in one place that is easy to use and share with your neighbor. You can use our site absolutely FREE. You can even create an account so you can track steps and join competitions absolutely FREE. For just $5 you can become a KCFit.net member, in which we mail you a membership card you can use to redeem discounts to our nearly 300 Provider locations in the KC Metro area. There are additional benefits for members such as free participation in our Fit Net Day in the Park each month.

What is a Fit Net Challenge?

A Fit Net Challenge is either a walking or weight loss competition. We can set up a competition for any group of members. We work with many companies around Kansas City to offer walking competitions for their employees. You can break teams down however you see fit. Plus, all of our competitions are based on averages, so team size does not matter. Challenge your employees or have your company challenge another company today!

The Billion Step Challenge is a spin off of our regular Fit Net Challenge. It is not a competition, but a collective, quantitative goal to see if your company/community/organization can accumulate 1 Billion Steps!

Challenges are run on a nominal fee, based on the number of participants, and are free for the participants to join. We supply you with a company/organizational code your employees or members enter to join the competition. Everything is paperless and self reporting. A great way to get the people around you active and changing their lifestyle.

I have a KCFit membership card, but have not created an account yet. What do I do?

You have a membership card! This probably means that your company purchased the card for you. Congrats, you work for a great company. Anyway, it is really simple. Sign Up for an account and after logged in, visit My Account and enter your ID # in the appropriate place.

How do I become a Provider?

Becoming a Provider is incredibly easy. Email Chris Culbertson @ cculbertson[at]kcfit[dot]net. Chris will send you the Provider Information Page and Provider Agreement, which you will need to fill out and send back. There is no cost associated with becoming a Provider. The only thing that we require is that you offer our members a discount. The discount is completely up to you and can be changed at any time, but keep in mind that members can see all discounts, so better discounts will more than likely lead to more customers.

How can I use KCFit.net in the company wellness program?

KCFit.net has a ton of resources that you can promote to your employees! Besides all the great resources you can promote and they can use, we offer Fit Net Challenges for companies. Read what a Fit Net Challenge is above, but keep in mind that you can break teams down however you want, even to individuals if you want. Or, you can challenge another company to see who's employees can walk more. No matter your efforts towards a wellness program, a Fit Net Challenge walking competition will be a great add on to motivate and engage your employees with out the hassle of manually tracking steps.
