# How do I buy a pass?

> Add a pass to your cart and check out from your gym's Passes page.

<Note>
  **Must know**

  * The pass is created at checkout, not when you add it to the cart.
  * You can't re-buy a pass you already hold while it's still usable — the button reads **Already in cart** or the purchase is blocked.
  * One pass covers every athlete you directly guard (plus yourself if you're an adult athlete), so you buy it once for the whole family — not per child.
</Note>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Passes page">
    Go to your gym's website and open the **Passes** page. Each pass shows its price, an **Unlimited** or **Credits** badge, and whether it's valid for all programs or a set number of them.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add the pass to your cart">
    Click **Add to Cart** on the pass you want. Because a pass covers your whole family, you don't pick an athlete for it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check out">
    Complete checkout to pay. The pass becomes active once your payment goes through — that's when it's created and attached to your account.
  </Step>
</Steps>

You don't buy a separate pass for each child. A single pass is held by you as the guardian and automatically applies to every athlete you guard. If you've already added a pass to this cart, its button reads **Already in cart**. And if you already hold a usable pass of the same kind, you can still add it, but checkout won't let you buy the duplicate — it tells you you already have an active pass.

Buying a pass in the same cart as a program registration? The pass discount applies to those program lines right away — see how a pass lowers what you pay.

The Passes page is view-and-buy only. To see the passes you already hold and any remaining credits, check the athlete view in your portal.
