Fabletics grew on an 80%-off first order that becomes a membership.
A deep first-order discount, then a $69.95 monthly credit you can skip. Its 2.7 million VIP members bring in 95% of more than $1B in 2025 sales. Fabletics is part of TechStyle Fashion Group.

Membership money, on our math.
Five plays behind the growth.
-
Show two prices on every product
Each product page lists a member price next to a non-member price. The Seamless Scrunch legging reads $18.98 for a new VIP and $94.95 for a non-member (fabletics.com, Nov 2026). The homepage table says members “save 20-50% off retail prices regularly.”
Copy this: if you run a loyalty tier or subscription, show its price beside full price on the product page, not only in the cart.
-
Make the first order the hook, and cap it
The offer is 80% off everything for new VIPs, limited to two items, or two bottoms for $24. The Meta ads we read close on an “exclusive introductory offer” for a jacket, leggings or onesies (Meta Ad Library, Nov 2026).
Copy this: one big first-order offer with a hard item limit. The limit protects margin and keeps the offer simple to say in an ad.
-
Bill a credit, not a box
After the first order, members are charged $69.95 on the 6th of each month for a Member Credit unless they skip between the 1st and 5th. Credits last 12 months and buy any item or outfit up to $100. An analyst puts recurring revenue at about $550M in 2025 (SGB Executive, Jan 2026).
Copy this: with a repeat-buying customer, test a paid membership that banks store credit. Spell out the charge and the skip date before checkout.
-
Rotate famous collaborators
The quiz offers “Khloé Kardashian” as a category, and her partnership ad (“Shop my Fabletics collection now”) has run since Jul 30, 2026. The YouTube channel adds Kevin Hart, Ja’Marr Chase, Keke Palmer and Lizzo drops in the past four months.
Copy this: one creator capsule a quarter, run as partnership ads from the creator’s handle, priced at the member rate.
-
Open stores where members live
Stores are 23% of revenue and grew same-store sales 15% in 2025, after 19% and 11% (SGB Executive). The plan: 25 more US stores and about 20 abroad in 12 months (Fabletics, Aug 2026).
Copy this: map orders by zip code and test a pop-up where repeat buyers cluster before signing a lease.

Our math on the buy box
CRO lessons for a Shopify brand
- Put two prices on the product page. Member or subscribe price first, full price beside it. Conversion
- Make the bundle cheaper per unit, not just bigger. Two for $24 against one at $18.98 makes the second item nearly free. Raise average order value
- Write the renewal terms next to the button. Fabletics states the charge, skip window and expiry in one paragraph under it.
- Keep a quiet one-time option. It anchors the member price and serves buyers who won’t join.
Every ad ends on an introductory offer.
About 160 active US ads on the main Fabletics page on Nov 10, 2026, plus a separate Fabletics Men page. Pick one to see it.
“Back in stock!”
The bestselling Teddy jacket, a restock story and “this exclusive introductory offer.” The image carries the number: 80% off.
The headline line under it is just “Adds to cart ✓.”
“$19 holiday onesies”
A gift item at a gift price, live from September. “Sell out every year” does the urgency.
It brings in members through a product that isn’t activewear.
“Shop my Fabletics collection now.”
A partnership ad in the celebrity’s voice, live for more than three months. Its image is the member deal: “2 for $24 leggings, by Khloé.”
“With this exclusive intro offer.”
Even the selfie-style Black Friday video ends on the new-member offer rather than a sitewide sale.

“Retail has become an increasingly important growth driver for our business.”
Read it with three caveats.
- Monthly charges draw complaints. A billing model you have to skip each month needs plain terms, easy online cancel and a support team. Check auto-renewal rules with your lawyer first.
- 80% off needs a big catalog. Credits only feel worth keeping if there is something new to spend them on each month.
- The numbers are second-hand. Revenue split and recurring revenue come from an analyst note on a private company, not filed accounts.
- What we’d change: the ads say “introductory offer” but not “membership.” We’d name the membership in the ad, so the buyer who joins knows what they joined.
Six moves for a $1M–$10M brand.
