The Fabletics Canada VIP membership is either the best value in Canadian activewear or an accidentally-charged subscription headache — almost entirely depending on how you use it. This guide walks through the mechanics, the pricing tiers, and the one small monthly habit that makes VIP work in your favour instead of against it.
The short version: sign up for the first-order discount, set a phone reminder for the 1st of every month, and log in to "Skip the Month" whenever you don't want to buy. Forget, and a CA$59.95 credit lands on your account instead — it never expires, so nothing is actually wasted. Cancel whenever you like and keep any stored credit.
What Fabletics VIP actually is
01Understand what VIP is — and isn't
VIP is not: a box that ships automatically, a facility membership, or a hidden fee structure — charges only happen if you forget to skip.
- A pricing tier — VIP members see 40–55% off list prices sitewide.
- A loyalty commitment — prices are discounted on the assumption you'll shop periodically.
- A credit system — miss the skip window and CA$59.95 is charged as a credit toward a future outfit, not lost money.
- Discretionary — cancel any time; existing credits remain redeemable.
02Sign up and grab the first-order deal
At checkout, new shoppers are typically offered one of a few rotating first-order promos: two leggings for CA$24, 50% off the first order, or a CA$29.95 first outfit. All three are real discounts against list price — take whichever is live. The VIP membership auto-enrols with that first order.
03Set a monthly reminder
Between the 1st and 5th of every month, open the Fabletics app or site, log in, go to Account → "Skip the Month," and confirm. It takes about 30 seconds. A recurring calendar reminder titled "Fabletics — Skip the Month" removes the only real friction in the whole system.
04What to do when you actually want to shop
Browse as normal — VIP pricing is already applied sitewide, with no extra step at checkout. Any stored credit from months you forgot to skip is applied automatically and reduces the total. There's no obligation to spend a credit within any particular window; it sits ready until you do.
05If you forget to skip
It happens to almost everyone at some point. A CA$59.95 credit is charged — non-refundable, but redeemable indefinitely on a VIP outfit worth roughly CA$100–140 at VIP prices. Credits stack, too: miss three months in a row and you're sitting on CA$179.85 of stored credit whenever you're ready to use it, on a leggings-and-top set or banked toward a bigger order later.
06How to cancel
Cancel any time by phone (1-844-322-5384) or online chat — no retention gauntlet. Existing credit balance remains redeemable after cancellation; you simply stop getting VIP pricing on new orders.
Where to spend your first few VIP credits
In rough order of value: Powerhold 7/8 leggings (the closest match to Lululemon Wunder Train, at 40–55% less), two-piece sets (bra + shorts, the best per-piece value on the site), the Sync II high-support sports bra, Motion 365 joggers, and long-sleeve running tops. Fabletics is weaker on technical high-intensity fabrics, ski and winter thermal layers, and wet-weather running kit — shop those categories elsewhere.

Three ways people actually run this
- The occasional shopper: signs up for the first-order deal, skips most months, buys two or three times a year — total annual spend can land near CA$100 for six pieces, versus CA$400+ for the same count at Lululemon.
- The "forgot once" shopper: misses a skip window, gets a CA$59.95 credit, and redeems it on a legging-and-bra set later — still comes out ahead of full-price competitors even with one missed month baked in.
- The frequent shopper: if you want new pieces most months anyway, skipping barely matters — VIP pricing applies every time you check out, and the roughly CA$60/month is essentially a spending commitment you were going to make regardless.
Frequently asked questions
Is VIP hard to cancel? No — phone or chat, no pressure to stay.
Do credits expire? Not while you remain a VIP member; check the cancellation policy for post-cancellation redemption windows.
Can I combine the first-order promo with VIP pricing? No — the first-order price applies before VIP membership activates; credits stack with VIP pricing from month two onward.
Are returns free? Yes, for VIP members, within 45 days.
How does the fit compare to Lululemon? True-to-size in leggings and bras; tops and joggers run slightly looser. Most shoppers can size the same as their Lululemon.
When do the best colourways drop? Spring (April–May) and fall (August–September) tend to bring the most new colourways and set combinations.
Bottom line
If you can commit to a 30-second monthly habit, Fabletics Canada VIP turns into one of the better value plays in Canadian activewear. Forget the habit occasionally and you still come out fine — the credit system is built so nothing is truly wasted.
