How it Works

What is RackUp?

RackUp is a mobile-enabled rewards system that promotes gym tidiness.

It uses NFC tags and a smartphone interface to track plate use, reward returns, and improve the gym environment — all without requiring major infrastructure changes. 

How to Use RackUp – For Gym Members

✅ 1. Scan the Rack (Start Session)
Tap your phone on the NFC tag located on the rack before removing a plate.

✅ 2. Scan the Plate (Checkout)
Scan the tag on the weight plate to check it out.

✅ 3. Complete Your Workout
Use the plate as normal — no interaction needed during your session.

✅ 4. Return & Scan Again
After your workout, scan the plate tag again and return it to any shared rack.
Then scan the rack’s NFC tag.
