It is so wild to read stories about gym subscriptions from here (Czechia), where gyms mostly work on "prepay principle" (buy 10 entries or 3 months in advance etc.), or you use a "Multisport Card" that will let you enter one sports facility a day almost anywhere in the country.

I have been frequenting gyms since 1998 and I don't think I have ever heard of anyone actually signing a contract with a gym and letting them charge his card. That is just not a part of the local gym culture, most gyms probably don't even have the necessary logistical structure in place to handle such contracts with repeated charges.
