Updating your university badge
With each new subscription and/or renewal, users are reminded to update their university badge to allow activation for new access.
To carry out the update wait 24 hours from the time of purchase and then place your university badge on one of the black readers located at the East Campus entrances for about 20 seconds.
SUPSI USERS
Please note that the subscription is considered valid at the time of purchase, and in the absence of a compliant badge, access to the East Campus Sports Hall will not be possible, with the consequent risk of losing a few days' use.
To check the eligibility of your badge, please create an account Technogym and follow the indicated procedure.
Users are requested not to proceed with the purchase until confirmation of badge activation has been received. -
Recognition by health insurance
Our Sports Hall is a member of the "Swiss Federation of Fitness and Health Centres" (SFGV) and we are proud to announce the recognition by the quality certification body, Fitness Guide, as a "Part Time Care" centre.
Fitness-Guide certifies Fitness and Health Centres and the main elements of the certification are several, including the space available, the quality of the staff and the equipment available.
For more information on the types of classification and the quality label, see the official Fitness Guide website.
As a result of this recognition, several health insurance companies reward their subscribers for training by compensating them for part of the costs they incur for their fitness subscriptions. The compensation is calculated under the heading of preventive contributions, and the SFGV produces annual documentation listing the health insurance companies that make use of this system and their contributions. In the following page, you can consult the summary table for the current year.
If you have any questions regarding your insurance policies and their reimbursements, please contact your insurance advisors.
Each subscriber is entitled to apply for the annual form in order to receive reimbursement from their health insurance fund, and the request must be sent by email to sport@usi.ch. -
Technogym app
The 'Technogym' app is available free of charge to all Sports Hall users. It offers support for using the machines and stores your workout in your personal profile. For users with a "Classes and Games" subscription, the app also allows them to book classes.
